Dear Marie,

Your letter about Earl came this morning and will be on the lookout for
more news. Sure do hope everything comes out alright.

Mother must be having an awful time of it.

Don’t let them kid you about Physical Culture, nor about the “Buzzer”
either.

If you get time send me a buzzer message. Use the typewriter for the
dots and dashes if you want to.

With love,

Forrest.
