Dear Mollie,

Thank you very much for sending me the “Rough Rider” I hope it isn’t going to be any trouble. I promise you I’ll make it up to you someday.

How is everything coming along. From what I read in Rough Rider a great deal of things are going on. Just reading the Rough Rider makes me home sick. Reading about the seniors getting their senior sweaters. I sure wish I can get one. You don’t know how much…

…how it feels to reading about it, if it wasn’t for this war I would be there and having a lot fun, the fun we all wait for. Our graduation is sure going to be sad. And I do mean sad. Just think you’re a Senior “B” I know what your saying “At last”. After I graduate I’m going back to school and take Post Graduate and take Shorthand.

Today were having a little dust storm I mean a lot of dust. It’s really terrible we can’t even see the next barrack. It’s been blowing all day…

…You must be bust now a days. Do you still work? It must be very confusing with all the rationing books. I’m sure I’ll never know how you figure out all the points.

Oh, yeah! Speaking of dust it’s been blowing all week.

Well I guess you can see by my writing that I’m getting sleepy so I’ll say Good by and Thank You.

Sincerely Yours,

Violet Saito
