STEADIED FISH (Cod, Pike, Trout, Perch) Dry-meated fish are best for boil­ ing or steaming as flesh will re­ main firm.

Dear Gladys:—I your letter was a coming than it should have been due to the change in the weather and the way we have been moving about. It came the other day, and I was very glad to receive it. A “newsy" letter such as you have written makes home seem a lot nearer and the things you tion are nice to think about one thinks of home—which is often these days. We were little.let down when winter set in because it slows the war up so much but now that the Russians have started, everyone seems to have become cheered. Thank you, too, for the Christmas card. Un­ fortunately, just around Christmas time we were moving around a bit, and as a result were unable to en­ joy our Christmas until the first week in January. But we did enjoy it. Thank you again for your kind­ ness.—Major Howard Hemphill. Dear Gladys:—I am sorry I nev­ er answered your welcome letter sooner but something always seem­ ed to come up. I guess Hensall will be the same old place. Likely it is snowed under now. I have not seen any snow so far last few weeks it has As long as it doesn’t mind. I am not doing as far as the training goes just now but-I just completed a course last week. I only wish I could get on a squadron as a person, gets fed up on sitting around. So far I haven’t seen any of the boys from Hensall or. district but have met a couple of fellows I knew from Exeter. I have been trying to locate Jim Campbell but I noticed in a paper I got from home that he is back on the continent again. We had a lovely Christmas dinner and also on New Year’s—turkey and all the trimmings. The only thing that seemed strange was the lack of snow. I have only had a week’s leave since chums and We , went Abbey and also saw the Parliament Buildings and Buckingham Palace. The flying bombs are still a nuis­ ance and while I was in London one landed quite close to where I was staying. I see it is time for me to be going so I shall close for now.
