Hi screwball,<\/p>\n\n\n\n

How’s tricks? Mine aren’t so good. I have a Physics prelim tomorrow and unless I get a high B at least I’ll have a C in Physics for mid semester. I know that I’ve got a C in Chemistry so far but I may be able to raise my Physics anyway. I’m not too worried because I can still raise my ranks for the end of the semester. I hope I can stay on the Dean’s list, I like my name in print. (Ha)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I got another theme back today. It was B- (my autobiography). Gee, I’ve gotten 4 B’s out of 5 themes this semester. I got 1 out of 12 last semester. An improvement, huh. Hope I can keep it up. I have to write a short story after vacation. Boy, I’ve got a lot a work to do during my vacation. Two lab reports, read a book, learn 250 words (definitions), do about 3 hours of Mechanical drawing and supposedly write the short story. What a life! I bet I don’t get any of it done well.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I guess that’s enough of my troubles. I’m only going to write this one sheet because I’ve got 30 pages of Physics to review and since I haven’t even read it once yet I’d better get busy. That’s been my trouble this semester. I get behind in my reading. Hmmm I was supposed to stop talking about such things.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I got your letter Tuesday morning. It was so very comforting after a bad quiz in Chem. You don’t help the rank but you do help me. Bob Perry said hi to me for you so I guess you went to the dance. I wish I could have gone. I haven’t been to an Armory dance for a long time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I just bought a bottle of orange and an Italian sandwich. All full of inions peppers cheeze, tomatoes etc. very good. Want a kiss, I smell beautifully. I know you’d appreciate the inions. I wish I could write more tonight ’cause I feel very conversational but I need my Physic’s work more than you need extra pages I’m afraid. The thoughts are there anyway sweetheart. Goodnight, darling, I love you so very much, too much.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Love
Jim<\/p>\n\n\n\n

P.S. I’ll call you up Friday night<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
