tobacco and nuts sometimes we can get a little candy but very seldom They have French cigarrettes and they are no good. The Y.M.C.A. is a wonderful organization (for the men at Camp Dodge etc) but over here it provides us with very little, even writing paper is not to be had altho I will have to give them credit for a fine supply of envelopes. We have been getting our mail pretty good lately. I received yours and Dots letter the other night. I also rec'd a letter from Miss Caris and another from Mildred and one from Miss Woodcock at St Charles Mo. I have been lazy lately about answering letters but Im going to do better from now on Ive been busy yesterday boiling up and killing cooties.so I can sleep good at night now Had a bath too, kind of a poor attempt but it helped a little. We have fine grub now for dinner we had beefsteak and gravy bread pudding with figs in it good
