Dear Folks: Ruth, Stuart and lovely girls -
It is seven in the evening so I will type awhile. It is another of those terrible days, blowing snow flying and roads and walks drifted. No mail all day, no buses no school no nothing. It is a real winter so stormy almost every day. I haven't seen Mom for a week tomorrow. I am assuming she is alright or I would have heard. I will go up the first day it is fit. One whirl per winter is all in want. I don't think there has been a train through today. Received your letter Ruth glad you folks had a nice trip home.
