Dear Ma, Pa and Ruth.

I received your letter today. It has been cooler here today. I went to the show here tonight. It was a pretty good picture. I think we get paid the beginning of next week. With them having shows here one doesn’t have to go out as much and therefore doesn’t need to spend as much money. I will send some money home. One can go down here and have cocao and bread a cake every night at nine oclock. They don’t charge anything. This month seems to have gone by pretty fast. The news in the paper sure is good these days.

I got a letter from Art tonight too. I guess the summer is just about over in Vancouver. Have you had all your holidays yet Ruth? I am ok. I hope Ma, Pa and Ruth that you are all ok. I guess that is about all for today. I will write again tomorrow.

Love to all,

Robert.
