Dearest

I landed safely morning, very lonely and homesick for you, but found everything going in good shape and no regrets as a result of my absence. Mr. Wilson doing well and seemed glad that I had a vacation. He enquired especcially for you and the boys. I dined with them night and last night also. Last night Dr. Axson was present and we stayed to see a moving picture—Heroes and Husbands—one of the very poorest pictures I ever saw.

I see from the papers Keogh gave Knot a poor ride & finished second—should have won easily—I have just been talking to a Congressman from the Black Mountain District. He says do not sell. The finest coal mines in the country are in those mountains. Sounds like a booster for his country. I am to see Rozier Dulany this afternoon and then we visit Stetson.

I have been thinking a lot about Infantile Paralysis—The points most to be considered are—isolation from crowds—particularly other children—good milk supply—avoid flies as much as possible and insect bites.—All these precautions you are already taking. By all means avoid the public bathing beach—I would think Scarborough safe—so long as there are no cases at Narragansett.

I paid the St. Regis bill to-day. I miss you more than I can tell you, but am grateful for a happy little visit together. I am counting on going back to Saratoga next week and from there to Narragansett over Labor Day—Give my love to the boys and Zoona—and a big heartfull for your precious dear self—

Ever Your

Cary.
