may seem of a minor niturt to us the significance of the missing presents had tlie effect of casting an unacknowledged gloom over our homely festivities wo wondered what they were doing over in england would there be air raids or ships blown up by a mine would thiy have enough christmas chetr to make it seem like christmas thinking all theje things partner sent son doun to the pot office tor
