for Christmas but only get four days pass and some of us will not have time to pay our parents a visit in such a short time.
 Our sixteen weeks intensive training has begun and every body is very busy digging trench es, drilling, running and taking ali kinds of exercise.
 The Red Cross has been very nice to the sick ones and kept them supplied with fruits, foot warmers, sweaters, towels and such things that were necessary for which we are very thankful.
 John and I were planning on being home some time during Christmas but it is very doubt full now although it is our inten- tion to come if Uncle Sam per- mits.
 We notice in the paper where they have lots of snow in Arkan- sas but are thankful to say we didn't get any here.
 News is scarce so 1 will close. Hoping to be with you in the near future.
