fifteen days. Possibly Irwin decided to do the thing; I haven't heard yet. Expect to spend about a month in England; then back here. After that, Spain, Italy and Switzerland. From present prospects, it looks like the winter here for me and Celie. She is doing some sort of work--making bandages, or something. They are at it from two to six--she has just gone out now with Mrs. Wills, wife of Major Wills of the U.S. Marines, a friend of mine. Have been working hard--four articles and a short story already accepted since I came over and another one about done. Lorimer cabled "Fine work", so I feel encouraged. Give my love to all the family and tell them I'll try to write each member of it some time; but I am badly rushed. Affectionately George
