Dear Ben,

Thank you ever so much for your birthday greatings and salutations.

You need not explain to me about not having time to write. We work from eight till five.

We eat three hours
" sleep five "
" work at detail three hours
" have an hour of calisthentics
" " also to run the obstical course once a day

Then after taking time out for three or four changes of cloths a day we can do what ever we want the rest of the time. Of course we must roll our cloths and keep up our sea bags in our spare time.

All in all we are kept plenty busy all day long.

Yours
from big brother
Jim
