That's pretty good for War times, what? I am sorry, I wont be in Vancouver when Harry comes there, so I could take him motoring. Toots is just dying to see him. You may tell Elizabeth I have given up dancing. It keeps me up too late at night. I bought sort of a head scarf 4½ yards long of pure wool and hand knitted for $2.00 off one of the fellows that had no use for it. I do'nt know what to do with it, so am sending it home for the girls to knit too short sweaters to go under my tunic, and a pair of tight wristlets out of it for when driving in the car the wind goes up my sleeves. I will send it when I find some coin. with love to all. Herbert
