Show letter From Geo Lord Albert Browne, Baconham Manor, Ham-on-Rye, Lanes, England. Dear Albert, You asked me if the ground hog saw his blasted shadow here a fortnight ago. Well, old Bean, I think even one of these crazy American ground hogs would have had sense enough NOT to come' out in this snow looking for a blinking shadow. I swear, Albert, this weather is worse than the blitz. If Meiers would open up a store in London I'd move back to jolly Old England. If Princess Margaret want to do a bit of stepping out on me that's up to her, but she can't expect me to send her any mor-i nylons from Howard's Ya riety. I fell through the blasted ice yesterday, but I didn't get my feet wet, because I was wearing wear-ing a pair of Johsonian Shoes that I bought at the HoUaday Shoe Store. Yes, Albert, 1 know that youi mother-in-law hasn't smiled (except (ex-cept for the time 'you broke your leg) in five years, but 1 nill insist that the old lady would beam from ear to ear after aft-er eatng one of Al's chicken dinners din-ners out at the Snooty Cat Cafe. Young Bertie dropped grandma's grand-ma's watch from the top flooi of the Hotel Utah but it ran ill right after we took it to the Tick Tork Shop. No, Albert, you cannot have the old- shoes back you gave me for Christmas before the war. They are just like new since I had them mended at tlT-Kveiygreen tlT-Kveiygreen Shoe R'pair. Tell Phil that he will have t move fast if he wants to take advantage of the wallpaper sale it the Holladay Paint and Wallpaper Wall-paper Store. Elizabeth will bt pleased with all the nice patterns. pat-terns. I want to meet a chap for a spot of tea so cherrio, and all that sort of rot. GEORGE. |
