Mailed Jan, 29, 1917 Sunday evening Dear Mumsie: The package containing well mended socks and shirts reached me all right, and I was delighted to get them so speedily. At this moment I am wearing one of the shirts and a pair of the socks. I'm tremendously obliged to you. Beautiful, isn't it, this turn in the weather? Some of that cold weather last week was simply agonizing. All the steam I could get into the radiators at my office wouldn't keep it warm, and the only way to keep warm at home was to flatten out against the hot air register. And the walks were so glassy that walking was the hardest kind of labor. I don't mind cold weather ordinarily, but when things come like that my psychology goes bad
