“I was half hoping you would say to hell with soldiers, crowds, adn governmental requests and thus give me an excuse for coming (not a good one I grant you that - but an excuse nonetheless”

“particularly after seeing that movie short (which really prompted my last letter) and this week’s Life”

Norma talks about the oil shortage and how they have to keep their home extremely cold, sometimes rooms get as low as 20 degrees. Man that is frigid!

She talks about a movie short, and this month’s issue of Life as if they are talking about something very important. Ideas?

I really like the “For Victory Buy War Bonds” stamps at the bottom of every page. Does anyone know what the “Office of Price Administration” is?

Sometimes this project is frustrating and exciting, but especially frustrating right now as I am posting these letters from an unknown time. I am posting them out of order from the rest of the letters. So I am getting a sneak peak of what is to come, but it makes absolutely no sense to me yet. Its like someone continuing a conversation from the middle that they started with someone else 70 years ago! I wish I knew more about what is going on here. Only time will help me find out.This project creates little historical mysteries for me, that inevitable leave me scouring the internet for clues. As I get into the meat of this collection of letters, I hope to find more clues as to the time in which these letters belong, so I can get more information about what they are talking about in the letters!
