hope it comes out well. Next year we go to the coast again, so will probably be in Vancouver. Won't that be wonderful, to see you once again. You remember when we sat together at Mrs. Brooks you said that when I leave, I would never think of you. Now do you believe me when I tell you I never forget one. I am glad you heard the Russian Ballet. I have never had the good fortune to hear them as when we were west they were in N.Z. I am so glad Mrs. [illegible] is cheering up things a bit as I know how everything is. But prepare yourself for better times, I am sure the war will end this summer, in fact positive, as it is suicide for either side to continue further. The Dutchess and her Daughter were to our concert in Ottawa, so you see I have played for Royalty.
