Letter of Appreciation
Dear Gladys:—Please excuse me
for not writing in answer to your
letters, but really have been so
busy that letter writing has been
sadly neglected. Your parcels have
been received quite regularly and
with my deepest thanks. They con
tain very essential items and in
countries like these are decidedly
a treat. So once again I thank you
one and all for your- very good
work, Well, we have finally reached
Germany, and personally, I wish it
were Canada. Of course, if we keep
moving it can’t possibly last much
longer and probably we shall see
Christmas in Canada this year. I
for one am hoping so. The country
doesn’t look or feel any different
than ours, but the devastation is
terrific, anyway, that is war, not
nice to see, but you more or less
get used to it Shall close for now,
Gladys, and hoping this finds you
well and quite happy. Say “hello”
to'everyone for me. Hoping to see
you all soon. I am, Your fl’iend—
