You are supposed to parade all night (2 fellows on & off) but the fellows always go to bed about 11 or 12. I am on police tonight. Bert and I got our first inoculation Sat. 10 A.M. Neither of us felt it at all. I played tennis all Saturday afternoon. One of the N.C.O.'s told me they had a better bunch of fellows here now than they had ever had. These are a good many from the up country there. I know a good many of the fellows that are from Vancouver here.
