It is still too early to predict anything definitely with reference to the locust outlook but I think from what I have seen that the worst has passed. See clipping.
Now I hope that the girls will not get in the way of mad dogs or other dangers, that Fido is of the past, and that all is going well at home. It is all that I can do way off here in the way of helping you in the care of the little ones.
Tell Psyche that I cannot answer her letter tonight, but that I will write to her soon — maybe the next letter home. I cannot send Helen a doll or Psyche the doll's clothes. In the first place there are no native dolls; and in the second place, of course they cannot have clothes. But I will get something for each before I come home. I was very much surprised at Psyche's letter for I didn't know that she could write so well. She must keep on though.
Good bye, a kiss for each. Yours.
Lawrence Bruner
