But I do thank you for your of songratulation on our having a very good season this year. — giad that it gave you a lift when you would pick up a paper and that Kansas knocked ‘em off once more. iif I imgine old pueblo is still a little ecol, is it not? But it is interesting, I am sure, for the boys in service to - move from place to place. After this war is over many of our boys will be very much traveled, and traveling is always broadening. I & 5 *t mean the hip and shoulder kind, but the mental and social that a fellow gots meeting other people.

I want to thank you again for your compliment paid me as to our having a possible winner. soygalt-genilellee oe hye cami am sure that this is the very year we will get knocked off, but 1% I imagine as long as I that feeling I had better bow my neck and work hard, and maybe we will have a better team than I innately Witly all good wishes and kindest personal regards, Very sincerely yours, .
