Bear Ben,

Just a couple days ago I wrote to you but since then It came to my mine that Jan the 11the is your birthday. So I we send you this Vmail for a card. Happy Birthday!

Boy its darn cold out today. I believe last night it was near zero a little snow on the ground and a full moon nearly as light at night as in the day.

Well how is everything this year we are still at war all the people that thought it would be over in 44. Well I guess they missed their guess.

Well the fellows want me to play a game of two of card I don’t know how it happened to come that we got time to play cards. But we are getting a little break.

Your Bro Felix
