Postmark Jan. 25, 1943 Mon. 2:00 PM Dearest Son, Its cold in this man's country again, not quiet so cold as it got a week ago. We’re feeling fine, and I’m working, didn’t work Sat and Sun and don’t tomorrow but work on thru next Sun. Evelyn came in and got me yesterday and I went out to Phillips with her. Sure did enjoy being out. Saw Rose Mary and Edna and their Mother. Hadn’t seen Dee (Evelyn's husband) since the Sunday you, June, Tom and I ate dinner with them in 1931. Hadn’t see Mrs. Ryuls (Evelyn's mother) since we went to Lubbock in 1928. Dena came right after I got home and stayed until 9:00. Did you get your classification card? You’re suppose to keep that with your registration card and have them with you at all times. They’re warning men, expecially the ones from 18-38, to have them on their person at all times. I’ve got quiet a bit to do so must toodle along. Hope both of you are well and happy. June got laid off Sat night. Don’t know where will go from here. Oodles love, Mom
