John N. Calhoun family letters, August 1941-February 1946

those other notes, too. 
Too bad about Cliff, but I guess he must be a lot better from the phone call. I was surely glad to hear all of you, but was so afraid they would cut us off without getting to say anything to you. 
Yes, I hope you pay the taxes (1st half) at Bar & Bir 
I saw about Mrs Ed Daily in the paper and wondered why. Too bad, isn't it? Sorry to learn of Ruth's illness and also of Arlene being stuck with a pitch fork. Hope she doesn't have any bad results from it. 
Yes, I think you had better have Wilma work, if you can get her. 
The man is to come out from Washington this week end to tell us where to go, only they don't tell us, they just look us over and talk with us and then go back to Washington to try & figure out where to send us. So we pro-bably won't know until a couple of days before school is out. But if I find out anything I'll surely let you know. 
Only three weeks and 5 days. This place has gotten to be like a prison - because of so much pressure. Nearly all of them feel the same way but can't ever tell anyone that. 
Must close. 
Love & kisses to all 
Daddy.
