Dear Bill:- 
I just want you to know that I am enjoying ANT-HILL 
ODYSSEY very much indeed. As one of the best-educated men I know, 
you have always amazed me by an amazing memory,unencumbered by books. 
Now I am glad to note that you did read, way back v/hen. 
Mrs. Sterling and I were talking of you last Sunday and 
Daisy greatly enjoyed hearing Lucy speak at the C.C.Women’s Club. 
I have looked forward to seeing you at Explorers Club but I have 
another club which meets the same night and the last two meetings have 
been of unusual interest. 
I hope to congratulate you in person very soon. In the 
meantime, may your formications be as delightful as they sound!
