meal a week and I bet if it was not for Father you would not have that. We had a gas attack last week, but it didn't do any harm at all. Everybody has to have his resperator on him no matter what he is doing so there isn't much danger from them.

Just Sunday I was up at a blowed up farm getting some bricks for our horse lines and we had a great time watching a German aeroplane and one of ours fighting. they both had machine guns on them and it was wonderful how they got around one another and as soon as they separated our air guns got after the German. Sometimes the sky is dotted all over with little clouds from these. It is really quite interesting to watch them. I think I will bring an airplane home with me. Uncle could fly around much easier with one. We are all going to hang our socks up this xmas to get dry. Our xmas dinner will most likely consist of french fried potatoes and coffee. That is about all you
