“EXTRA” “ELECTION NEWS”

Gerry Schilling wins my heart

My dearest Gerry:

Just a note to let you know how happy you made me on Saturday night. We have waited so long and now it is almost here. I must have a wonderful look on my face everyone has guessed why I’m so happy and I love it. It just gives me more time to think about you during the day. I got an O.R. for a 10 day leave. Mrs. G. is excited and we have started to plan the breakfast. If we can limit it to 20 people for the breakfast she can handle it beautifully. I think we will have a reception in E. Elmhurst at night and have all our friends there. How about it. I am encluding a list for the A.M. please tell me what you think.
