Any boy who has spent a year in bed and can still write such a cheerful, fine letter as you wrote to me, can be certain of an answer.
I am delighted to know that you are studying signalling. I have found that any intelligent young man that has some specialized training is always of value in this world - signalling, stenography and typing are three things that will always stand you in good stead.
I have signed my name on the card inclosed in your letter and am returning it herewith.
Best of luck
Mailing folds, else fine.
