With love and kisses from JOHNNY G. These are excerpts from letters we received while we were away in the Far East in 1937-38: DEAR MUTTI AND PAPA I hope you are fine. And so am 1. 1 miss you very, very much. I hung your picture in the bedroom so I can say “Good morning” and “Good night” to you. I made a puppet all by myself it is going to be a woman Detta is making a dress for her. We read in the newspaper that a new star was discovered. It is nearly as big as the Solar System. In school I saw a movie. It was called “If we were on the moon” It showed that there were many vulcanos on the moon. One was eighty-five miles wide, that one is one of the biggest. It showed that you couldn’t hear each other on the moon. It showed that if you weight one hundred and twenty-five pounds on the earth, you would weigh twenty-five pounds on the moon. Our grade went to a Science laboratory. A man showed us lots of experiments. One of the experiments showed us that electricity would rather go through two feet without oxygen than a few inches with oxygen.
