 Dear Dad:-
 Received your letters of Jan. 5th and IT some time ago. Also the package of films and gum two days ago.
 The films came just in the nick of time as only had three reels left when the others arri- we'd.
 You spoke of being busy taking inventory in all debts. I do not believe that is done by any of the concerns in this part of the world, however they all have enough clerks in their stores to do two or three stores according to the businesss done
 All goods are cash and the clerks do not handle the money If the customer buys anything a set of duplicate bills are made and one is handed to said GUS toner while the other together with the article purchased is sent to the bundle wrapper.
 Then in order to get the article desired the customer must first pay the cashier for the amount on the bill; the cashier detaches a slip from the duplicate showing the a. mount of purchase and gives the receipted bill back to the purchaser, who then presents said bill to the bundle wrapper and receives the package.
 Everything is cash and either carry, or hire your own carrier.
 A few days ago we had the quarantine for measles lifted having been quarantined for fourteen days (only one case in the company.
 I understand that there is an embargo on all fur goods here lowing to the shortage1
 but if you wish I will try to find some Russian Sable for you.
 I was looking at these just after we landed and the prices were about as much as if it were purchased in the U. s.
 However if you want some send me four or five hundred dollars and I'll see what I can get. My capital at present is running at low ebb,i in fact I can count my coin in rubles.
 Am enclosing a couple of views of Vladivostock, one of Pekinskaya St. looking approxi mately north, over the R. R. bridge.
 The other. looking down the bay of Vladivostock.
 I do not know why they, are holding us here or when I will be coming home again.
