Letter to Ruth Mallory written from France
Had received two letters and a Xmas parcel. The last cake was on the point of disintegration and it might have been better to wait a day after cooking before sending it.
The general impression was that the labour folk were making a mess of demobilisation hence Geddes’ appointment. Saw in the paper that the demobilisation of all teachers and sudents had been ordered and so it might not be more than 2-3 months.
He was writing a song for Xmas day which was a parody of Widdicome Fair.
He was reading Studies in Christianity and liked the chapter on Christian love very much.
