Well Al how is that for news and I guess you will be prouder then ever of
your old pal before this business gets over with and I would feel pretty
good with everything breaking so good only I am getting worred about
Ernestine that little French gal in the estaminet and I wished now I hadn't
never seen her or made no bargain with her and I didn't do it so much for
what I could learn off of her but these French gals Al has had a tough time
of it and if a man can bring a little sunshine into their life he wouldn't
be a man unless he done it. So I was just trying to be a good fellow and
here is what I get for it because I caught her today Al with that look in
her eye that I seen in so many of them and I know what it means and I guess
about the best thing for me to do is run away from Gen. Pershing and go
over the top or something and leave the boshs shoot my nose off or mess me
up some way and then maybe I won't get pestered to death every time I try
and be kind to some little gal.
I guess the French lessons will half to be cut out because it wouldn't be
square to leave her see me again and it would be different if I could tell
her I am married but I don't know the French terms for it and besides it
don't seem to make no difference to some of them and the way they act you
would think a wife was just something that come out on you like a sty and
the best way to do was just to forget it.
Well Al as I say I caught her looking at me like it was breaking her heart
and I wouldn't be supprised if she cried after I come away, but what can
a man do about it Al and I have got a good notion to wear my gas mask
everywhere I go and then maybe I will have a little peace once in a wile.
