Dr. Long wants me to come back in two months. Said that when you do come home on furlough, (prob. no possibility for quite awhile) that I should come to see him as soon as I hear about your coming, or if I meet you somewhere, he wants me to see him first before I would leave.

Don’t know just what to expect in the way of business for the year. So far we are ahead of last year but it is impossible to keep that up as we are running out of material. When we do I think I will try and join the Marines. I’ll be OK if they are not too particular.
