Nineteen February 22, 1918 My darlin' Wife,- Shure an' there's but one thing I'd like to do tonight an' that is to sink into a soft cushioned chair for two with you snuggled up beside me and read about the Lolly pops and the Uggledewumps. Enter contrast in black fedora, long black coat, and drooping moustaches. I am ump thousand miles away. There aint no soft-cushioned chair. And I haven't a book but my French grammaire and my books of war. It's drizzling outside one of those dreary, sloppy rains that France provides with no provocation at all. From a hurried walk into the main part of town that I took before supper my shoes and puttees are messed with the whitish mud peculiar to the country. You know, the macadam roads and the sidewalks are fine
