Seems to like her work real well. And by the way, Freda Criswell is private secretary for the President there. It is rumored that there will be a wedding soon. lsn't that thrilling? Are you planning on attending the Olympic games? l wouldn't miss them for anything this year for the world, as Emory Nlorket is representing the United States as fastest long distance runner. l-le has made a wonderful record so far, Vxfell. Ginger, while home l made a special trip out to Saginaw to see the new growth of trees and they are doing splendidly. I didn't realize what won- derful work forestry was until I saw those all formerly hare hills covered with that young growth of trees. Your work in the East is just as successful, too, and the next summer when our class all come together for the planned fishing trip and we pull the speckled trout out of the foaming streams rippling along in the shade of your trees, we will then realize just what we have accomplished worth while for ourselves and others. Dont answer this letter, as l will he with you the day it arrives. Your true friend, E. H., '25, Eighzeen
