UB

I have just received your card. There

have been few days during all this horrible, needless

war in which I have not thought of you and hoped
for the safety of you and your family. I have
watched with wonder and admiration the splendid
work that you have untiringly done through all this
frightful calamity. I long for the day when happi-
ness and peace will be restored to Germany. But I
