I want all the proofs or photostats of every page & drawing going to be published in the book before printing and to do nothing without my O.K. or yours. Please keep an eye on him if that's not much trouble. Let him have some drawings from you but remind him that I'm not in a not in a hurry & I don't care right now for business or many drawings to be published. I'll send now & then [[strikethrough]] so [[/strikethrough]] a few drawings to the N. Yorker and that'll be all.

Now here it's cold & gloomy. I have for a few days to be the officer in charge and take care of enlisted men and stuff like that. I can't stay & make drawings those days. I'll send you soon a whole bunch of scrap, sketches & so on that are piling in my room and don't feel like trowing away yet. Last week was very nice weather here and I was able to get the Jeep regularly (The Jeep is for high rank only. I usually get a bicycle for transportation) and been around in the country.

Did you get the sliver toothpick & earspoon I sent you?
