With worn-down ridges, of course,

l left the city about six weeks
ago and am now up in the jungles.
It's only since being here in the
wilds that I've gotten over the
terrible shock of India. It's really
beautiful around here, with trees
and foliage everywhere, tea hedges,
and hills. There are all sorts of
flowers - orchids grow wild -
and all kinds of animals; even py-
thons roam around. The insect
life unfortunately is too pro-
life. We have to practically
live in slacks and boots to
avoid mosquitoes and snakes.
1t is just now beginning to cool
off a little at night. and even now
it is just about like the famous
N. Y. heat waves. We went
around for days without being dry
in a single spot, even lipstick
would come off from the humidity.
We changed our clothes half a
dozen times day
We had the time of our lives in
the cities, danced with maharajahs
and princes and saw rooms full of
fabulous jewels. All of that makes
good reading but it didn't seem
strange to me, because it ran
so true to story books that felt

places and see people sleeping in

I've learned to drive a jeep.
You'd laugh if you could see US
whipping around over these rough
roads, winding in and out among
sacred cows, goats and elephants.
Sometimes we have to stop. get
out and push them bodily off the
road before proceeding.
The food here is strictly CT and
always either canned or dehydrat-
ed with no variety to speak of.
We are not allowed to eat any
thing grown here or in China,
because even the soil is diseased.
A few fruits can be dipped in
potash solution and eaten, but
there is still danger of contracting
cholera. Water has to be boiled
for about five minutes. There is no
milk and no dairy products. 50 we
have dull diet in the midst of an
abundance of exotic fruits and
vegetables. We all have thinned
down but show no i'll effects.
Americans Are Tops
xHE most wonderful thing about
India is the American soldiers.
They come bigger and healthier
and better looking than any other
nationality. The boys are usually
so glad to see us that it is pathetic.
Some haven't seen an American
girl in many months. They walk
miles sometimes to drop in on us.
We have to be careful, or they'll
end up doing more for US than we
do for them, for they want to give
us almost everything - their pre-
cious rations of cigarettes or gum,
or the utmost in sacrifice around
here - their meager ration of
beer. They bring candy from
China, or a Chinese generals hat.
They offer to do jobs for us -
cleaning our clothes in octane gas,
painting furniture, moving grass.
or helping us prepare canteen food.
Come of oa,r mail WAS lost in
plane crashes, and other letters,

or for reasons of censorship, and

Meanwhile, all my love to the
