unreal to us then that you would be a service man. So there was no selfish interest in her remarks. It is all the more wonderful when she was an immigrant and could easily have begged off on an excuse of language. I don't say anything to our friends what I think of activities, but it just causes me to appreciate our way of looking at things and doing things. My husband not only is always dependable, even when thousands of miles away. He is missed so much by his wife as a very good conversationalist. You talked better for me than anyone would realize. One of the worst things of you being away is that I have no one to talk to. I may earn my living talking and listening - but I still have no one to talk with but you. So I have to write fat letters of talk as long as we can't talk in person. 
If you ever have the time maybe you can write me some "talk". How
