1957

It has been a long time since we have had a chance to chat. I have a pile of mail here and a list of changes of address. There are many doctors, stockbrokers, geologists, servicemen, and teachers, etc., spread all over the nation. It is really an amazing and calming thing to suddenly be aware of this when the rest of the world seems to be crumbling daily about our ears. Enough of this, let's find out what is going on in the happy side of things.
