Dear Willard and Grace:

Just thought I’d drop you a line and tell you that yesterday I received the first copy of the Saturday Evening Post. The date of the copy was Nov 18. Glad to get it at last.

Got a letter from Mildred this A.M. and she told me it was sort of cold. I wish we would get some freezing weather here. Not that I enjoy ice cold weather, but I believe it would be much better for military operations.

Suppose you have heard about the drive by the Germans. A thing like that has great repercussions. Like dropping a big stone into a pool of water where you have ripples that roll to the farthest shores, gradually diminishing.
