Dear Folks at Home: Your
letter dated Aug. 8 received to
day. Sure was glad to hear frou
home again. How's everything
with you? Leaves me feeling
pretty good. Have been moving
around again since I last wrote
you. This Sunday afternoon and
1 haven't anything to do at pres
ent, so I will write you a few
words. Sorry to hear of the dry
weather at home; was in hopes
the season would continue to be
good, as long as it started out to
be. Everything here is looking
good as far as I can see. Would
like to hear from Silas. Gee
guess he thinks he is making big
money! Well, it is good money.
Glad he is liking it fine for l was
afraid he would work too hard
and him NOT used to anything
like he is in now. Have been
moving around so fast that my
mail has a time keeping up. Tell
Silas l would like to swap jobs
with him. Cant say why l don't
get more of your letters. l get
about q of the mail that is sent
out from there, as l get a letter
from some folks and they tell me
about writing letters that l never
get, and some of yours l get way
late. That's the way my mail
comes, sorter in a bunch. Try to
write so you will hear at least
once q week. Seems as I can get
letters that you write last first.
Yes, wish l could tell you every
day how l was but can't do that.
Living in hope that everything
is we'll with you. Am glad ma
ma is better; not that l had
heard anything about her being
sick but guess l am just as vel
as if | bad known it. Hope she
and all tue rest will hold your
good health. Couldn't ask for
better health myself. Glad you
saved ny policy. Will send you
some money when we get paid
again as guess you have used
about all ! had in the bank.
Haven't made another allotment
yet; think I will before long.
Yes, Homer is still with me; see
hin every day, almost Told him
what you said and he said he
would write them a letter. Tell
them he is we'll and looking fine.
All the boys from around home
are looking good. Saw Glenn,
Ava and Garrett Carter, Claud
rripp, Roy Handy. Frank Hoov.
err and Walter Coday the other
day. All Was feeling good, Glad
you get the good news from
boys; guess you know as
much as l do here, for | hardly
ever see a paper any more. Still
staying with the Lord and will as
long as / live for I think He is a
great helper in time of need.

On thu Sc at home. I know you at
