Helen Angell Fox letters to Bess Peebles Fox, January-May 1944

for years and years. I ran out once last summer & used your Colgates three nights. We've had the Ipana a long time & it always made my gums bleed when I used it, so I decide it wasn't good for me. Consumer's Guide says it is too soapy and irritates the membranes.
I had a nice letter from Betty yesterday. She is a swell correspondent. I should judge your crocheting was appreciated very much.
Julia will be delighted with the "stomach picture", I'm sure. I'm glad the magazine came; she was a little worried for fear they couldn't send single copies like that.
I asked Herb for his addres, but he hasn't replied yet. If you think of it, you might send it some time, as I'd like his serial no.

I thought I told you Mary Bess knew Marg,
but maybe I forgot. They weren't close friends at all, but had met at conventions and study groups. I imagine poor Marg is always too tied up with Ruth Sumner to make any new friends, don't you? I don't know where she is except that it's South Pacific, of course, and a very rough spot. I hope she'll write. I wrote her a note a week or so ago, telling her that the express packages got off all right.
