It reached me last evening (Christmas Eve)—a perfect delivery record! — and its contents are certainly appreciated, not least because most of them are edible ! . . . I have not barged into any other old Chefooites, even through coincidence ... I finished my tour as A.D.C. last August and am now back on regimental duty and hope to remain with my battalion until the whole show is over.”
MISS IDA A. CRAIG, for so many years Principal of the Girls’ School,
