November 21, 1944, Dear Mr, Farmer: It is sometime since I have written to your paper and since then. have changed my address. Further away from home than ever now, but I can still see Vancouver occasionally, as it only takes a short time by air. Every week's paper from home brings joy and sorrow. Joy such as a wonderful age that Mrs. Davis has reached and such health with it. The Golden Anniversary celebration for Mr. and Mrs. Switzer. My congrat- ulations to these home folk. The sorrow is for the friends whose sons have given their lives in the fight for peace. All of us feel we do so little when each week brings such news. . How we long for it all to be over and once again" return to our homes. It has been a very damp and cold fall here. In fact there. has been about twenty-four hours sunshine in six weeks. It is not very likely there will be snow so this is my third winter without seeing a white blanket on the ground. This year for the first time 1 will be on duty Christmas Day, bug' will have planning on spending them --with friends in Victoria, It" is bed time now and morning ' comes all too soon. .
