France, May 26, 1918

Dear Bess:
     
      Another week gone and still no letters. I know they are somewhere in France though and that I'll get 'em some day. Captain Babcock who is going to school here is a very happy man today; he got about thirty letters yesterday. They were the first he'd recieved [sic] since comming [sic] over.
      We have been working as hard or harder than usual this week. I've studied more and worked harder the last three weeks than I ever did before in my life. It's just like a university only more so; right out of one class into another and then examinations and thunder if you don't pass.
