Dear Ralph:
want to express my sincere
appreciation for your kindness in
sending me the paper. When ]
was home a short time ago I in
tended to drop in the office and
have a chat with you, but the
time flew by so fast that it was
time for me to come back. So that's
why missed you. However, when
get home again I hope to have
better luck.
How's Jim making it these days?
I saw where he was to come home
and be sure and give him my best
regards.
Things here are about the same
except it's hot as hell. They call
this country 1.-THE Land of En-
chantment" but CAD! What lie!
No foolin' I feel sorry for the
natives who haven't seen that good
old state of Washington, and espe-
cially the lower end of the Yakima
valley.
Best regards to all and Take 'er
easy. AS ever,
CPL. CRAIG HINMAN
