In spite of the bother over the war passes I learn things daily and we see beautiful and curious things, and are educated as to the East, as no books could have done it for us.

John Bass who was my comrade in arms in Greece and his wife are here.

They are the very best.

Also we see Lloyd daily, and the hotel is full of amusing men, who are trying to get to the front.

Of course, we know less of the war than you do.
None of the news from Cheefoo, none of the "unauthorized" news reaches us.
