Lake Street Station
My Dear John
Well John you old stick in the snow up to your nose I wish I could see you and I bet we would have some fun. Has the snow melted enough so you can make snow men and things? That’s what some of the kids are doing here. I saw a great big snow man this morning and they had a hat on him and everything, and another place they had a bear and it looked nice. I bet it has kept you busy shoveling paths the last few weeks. I wish you would draw me a map showing all your paths.
Oh say John I have another jig-saw puzzle for you folks that I think you will like, and I wish you would send me the one of the elephant as I haven’t put one all together yet.
Oh John, Jack the barber just gave me another Sun. Journal for you. He asks about you folks quite often. This afternoon he was putting one of the puzzles together. I found a few pieces for him before I came in here to write my letters. I guess this is all I can think of to write this time so by-by with lots of love from Daddy.
