Dear Joe,

Thank you very much for letters. I am sorry that you do not feel well.

How are you now, better or not? I know your Physical condition very well.

You are not sick, you are just tired. because you have had no study for a year. Now you have to study too much, and doing other things to keep up with your self. You have to keep mind all the time among strangers. and in big city.

Climate also very deffrent from Calif.

When I was seventeen years old. I went to mission school far away from home, and I felt just like you. You are not in poor health although you are skiny.

So you have to take it eazy.

If you think too hard to study, drop units, and have time to rest.

Please don't hurry to finish your edication. Papa mama are in good health, so you don't hurry.

Mrs Smeltzar and Mr. Oi left to Chicago. Mas Miyadi orso going to leave to work in your school, so you will feel more happy.

How is Dike. Give my regard to him. Now I close this letter. I will write soon

Your Mother
