Dearest Mary,
This doesn’t seem very much like my birthday, time has sure passed fast. I’m sorry my package
didn’t get here in time; it may be a month before it arrives. I will enjoy getting it even if it is a little late.
No mail came in today. I don’t look for any until the 27th, that’s the way it usually arrives.
You have sure had a lot of snow this winter. The ground must have been covered about all
winter. Bob said this was the worst winter in years. He sent me Russ Harpers new address. He is
guarding war-prisoners down in Miss. I don’t know why he hasn’t wrote to me, I wrote to him over a
month ago.
I started using the new stationary you sent me the other day. It’s pretty hard to write on
because of the creases. I’m not a very good writer but I think you can read it anyway.
I was going to church this morning but I forgot about it being Sun. I never know the day of the
week any more.
They are building a Red Cross here. It will be several weeks before it’s finished, they just started
about a week ago. I’ll be glad when they get it finished; there is no place to go around here. About the
only enjoyment we have is the movie and a stage show once in a while.
Take care of yourself darling.
I love you all that’s possible, Mary.
Your husband,
Earl
P.S.
Here is some Chinese money; I thought you might like to see it. This is worth just a few cents in
American-money!
