The things for the bed roll go in a duffle bag, so I'll be able to express home all the spare suitcases from here. I think now that I'll try to take that black Gladstone. A few more things will go in the locker. If I could, I'd like to send home the tray, as it takes up space. If I can find paper to wrap it, I'll do that, but I wouldn't like to leave it here. Then I think I'll cut the cotton slips down to 3, take out the heavy cardigan & that will make a little room. Could you send me (1) the puzzle peg game (2) the chess game (3) the Chinese tile game (4) the round box of "Pick up Sticks," or something like that (5) 2 cakes of pine soap (green bars I like)? You're getting as much work out of this as I am. I bet it will be a relief when I'm so far away I can't send for things! Betty Tyler & I got a new roomate today. Her name is Sara Logue & she is from Tennessee. She loves the radiator on & the windows shut, so I can see we'll have a tussle. It just isn't cold yet according to our standards. I've almost finished so little time, & like it a lot. Love, Helen
