Helen Fox Angell letters to Bess Peebles Fox, July 1944-April 1945

1944-09-23 Helen Fox to Bess Peebles Fox Page 3

(Along margin - Helena Maria Asunta Ciancimino, our Staff Aide (ARC))Incidentally, she'd like to apply for adoption by you, as she has no mother, and has decided she likes you.  She is a rare character, and lots of fun.  One of her middle names is Asunta, and in a weak moment she told me that her brothers used to call her Assie sometimes.  I content myself with calling her Asunta when I feel that way.  She understands me well, as we have the same kind of humor.
I still have quite a lot of vitamins, so just take a double dose for the time being.
We got lots more leather and wool this week, so I'm cutting out wallets and gloves galore.  They are making some swell gloves.
I heard from Grace Stribley, Harriet and Hattie yesterday.  Harriet sent a cute picture of Pam.
I won't write now till I get back, about the 2nd of October, I presume, but you'll know it's because I couldn't mail it if I did write.  No A.P.O. available, you see. 
Love,
Helen
