Dear Ma, Pa and Ruth.

It has been kind of foggy here all day. The postoffice here is closed today so I wont get the mail until tomorrow. I got a letter from Art yesterday He said they were going up to Midlands again. I went to the show they had here at H.M.C.S. Shelburne tonight. It was a pretty good picture. They only charge ten scents. I have just finished writing a letter to Art. It is raining a bit here tonight. How is the weather in vancouver these days. I hope Pa that your leg is getting O.K. The apples that you sent sure are swell. I guess Art will get his when he gets up to Midlands. It sure isn’t a very big town here. There are no street cars. Sometimes they have four different pictures a week here at Shelburne. I am O.K. I hope Ma, Pa and Ruth that you are all O.K. Well that is all for today. I will write again tomorrow.

Love to all,

Rubert.
