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

I'll be looking for the Valentine box. 
It was nice of Julia Hurst to make such kind remarks. Be sure and give her and George my kindest regards. 
School is a little disappointing as far as they don't compare anywhere near as efficient as at Carlisle. The teachers seem to teach on a hit or miss lesson assignment and at Carlisle they really had it planned out so that they knew what they were going to teach. 
Enclosed is a story of a Mexican's difficulty in making himself understood. Please return it as another fellow gave it to me and I have to give it back to him. 
I stayed over in the lounge tonight after supper and read a story in Colliers. I don't know what is the matter but haven't received the paper since Jan. 27th. Will you call and tell them and also ask them to send the back numbers and ask them why? 
Must Close. 
Love & kisses to all. 
Your Daddy.
