Show Senor Beckwith Has Airmail From Argentina Dear Mr. Beckwith, Just received the Dec. 16, 23, and Jan. 6 and 13 issues of the Millard County Chronicle. I noticed, however, how-ever, that the addresses were a little confusing to the postmas because be-cause they lacked the street number num-ber and they made note of such. After the street "Call Virrey del Pino" please place the number 2120 on all further copies. Mother must have forgotten to have given you this number. Thanks so much. I hope that all of the snow has melted since the last report I received. re-ceived. I've been showing several pictures of it to friends and they hardly believe it. Only the most . southern part of Argentina ever sees the snow. The winters here i are much similar to those of Calif. The seasons are reversed, however, and right now we are entering into in-to the phases of fall. The watermelon, water-melon, fig, and grape crops are at their height. The last three days have been holidays celebrating the "Carnival" which is equivalent to Halloween in North America. They go in a little more for the street parades and costumes, something very similar to the Mardi Gras in New Orleans. I telephoned home recently, and talked for over five minutes. The call cost me $61.50 pesos or an equivalent of about seven dollars. Reasonable enough.. I saw Elder Rex Tery not too long ago and we both should be coming back home at the end of the year. Thanks for the hometown news. Please make this one little change in the address, and I won't give you any more trouble. Sincerely, Elder Gordon Moody Calle Virrey del Pino 2120 Belgrano, Buenos Aires 26. |
