Gosh mom what will you do for news if you lose Mrs Tharson you wont keep up on anything. Like the Kass kid said, you may have to subscribe to another paper. I'm surprised at Bob Triager such a tough nut. You wouldnt guess he'd get homesick. You're going to have a regular childrens hoe The Kay children & Mrs. Klingers baby. I'm glad you finally got a new rug I know you've been wanting one so long. Maybe Ralph & Aunt Katherine will come up and see you while they are at the cattle congress with the horse. So Helen Humphry is married, where is her husband located and in what branch of service I expect thats Chick Hughes isn't it? If I were you I wouldn't think about coming to visit me unless I get closer home. Tires are much too scarce and I know many of the fellows whose families have come were very disapointed because they couldnt spend more time together. I'll get a furlough sometime and come home before so awfully long I hope. Perhaps after we move they will put out some.

Saving...
