User-Contributed Transcription Dear folks,
How is the world of literature, of milk and honey? We miss it + you, all the way from Jughead to Daffydill (I keep remembering him + all the good things we did together) to Jack + Gladys.
Here, the world continues.... Rowena is taking courses in education, taught by pompous and repetitive bores, slinging a lingo composed of distortions of Dewey + Fitzpatrick + pretending it's knowledge. Recently she had to substitute in one of the local high schools, +, despite all the fine theory of the educationalists, she came home babbling of only two things: spit balls and bad breath. She is almost over the experience, but still she quivers + looks around with an unfixed eye at the mention of students or high school.
Love, Jim
Peace and Goodwill
Jim + Rowena Light
