somewhat lonesome. Wc sure
hail a dm; trip across the big
damp, considering the time of
year. It o,,t a little rough at
times, but I was lucky enough not
to get seasick. This country does
seem strange to us. j,h I could
tell you about the trip, and other
tlun-s. but will have to wait until
I get back to ' Oregon. I can't
well ex n tell about the country,
thai is, I can't tell you names of
places. Everything is built of
brick and concrete here, anil I
haven't seen a wooden house yet.
And the roads, or highways
they are grand. They are all
liard surface and smooth as glass.
They tell us it will take at least
two months to get an answer to a
litter now. That seems like an
awfully long time. We-get very
hungry for sweets. When you
