as sturdy to me as much more expensive ones. They are black oxfords. I walked a hole in the sole of one pair lugging packages home, so am having them resoled & get them Monday. Incidentally, "Printcraft" is the name of the Red Cross building here which houses Military & Naval Welfare, Military Liason, etc. The other Headquarters building is the "18th Street" one and that stores the packages, houses the accounting departments & the D.C. chapter. All mail goes first to the "18th St" packages stay there, no matter how labeled, letters go to printcraft & then are sent to my hotel until I am on a clearance list, when they are held there for me. They changed their way of dealing with packages after I wrote you, but it was OK. You know, those coconut cookies were super-delicious. I was a little annoyed at those fifteen vultures for eating most of them! Thanks for the calendar; I had been wanting one and wondering where to get a small, compact one. Today I got a swell pen-size
