Everything was in excellent condition and just the things I wanted. The tubs of medicine will go very well, but I have not been troubled with the sore throat very much this fall and winter. I used it on the boy\u2019s boils today.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"line-height: 1.5;\">I forgot to tell you that you used good discretion in sending what you did. Some of the chocolate drops were smashed just a little but the enough to hurt anything. The handkerchief was there also. There could not have been anything taken from it, because the box was full.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"line-height: 1.5;\">They are having a calls in elocution here now, led by the chaplain. I hardly think that I will go.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"line-height: 1.5;\">All the boys here in the P.O. received boxes and we all made a division. I was last to receive mine.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"line-height: 1.5;\">I would like to make a trip down the Rhine sometime. They are grating passes and I would go if I could go with some one that is interested in the things that I am.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"line-height: 1.5;\">\u00a0I have not had any cooties, but some of my associates have in fact three of the boys in the P.O. have had cooties. Hardly feel like a veteran without the cooties. It may be my inspections have not been close enough.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"line-height: 1.5;\">Will close,<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Yours lovingly,<\/p>\n<p>Clyde<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Cover: \u00a0AMERICAN EXPEDITIONARY FORCES\u00a0YOUNG MEN\u2019S CHRISTIAN ASSOCIATION\u00a0ARMY OF OCCUPATION\u00a0(in black and white) Return address: C.M.Cummins Hdq.
