is a great big yard of rows of it about 5 feet high. I went to Alex last night but didn't feel so very spry and came home on the ration truck. Alex is surely a busy place - the building permits this year are in excess of $2,000,000. They have enlarged the bank and the hotel. One fellow started a cafe but he didn't have any money and before he could get it to going they had to close him up. It looks now as though we won't be back in Camp until Tuesday. Darn the luck anyhow. I don't see why they can't get this over with. We don't do much but sit around or move. I am enclosing some snap shots. Not so
