touch them. This morning I was awakened by a bird - one you don't hear. It was the man-bird. For many days the weather had been too bad for him to fly. So when today dawned clear he went up into the blue. And the music of his motor high above my window awakened me to the realization that it was moving in a land were the very air sings the reverberant song of war. Where do Mathilde get it? Golly. I wish I could send you a few litres of the choice brands of France. I love you oodles for - the helmet and everything. Wish I didn't have to use paper and ink to tell you so. There's a better way. Good night, honey. Forever and forever Your lover. Conger Reynolds 2nd Lt. A.G.D.
