Letter from Alan North to his parents

Letter from Alan North to his parents

Alan writes that his course is pretty tough compared with Cambridge. He sailed across in a large luxury liner, the food was good. Chocolate, fruit and cigarettes were for sale in unlimited quantities. The sea became rough and many were sick. Then after a few days it became very hot. After arrival in the USA they caught a train to Moncton, Canada. Next they caught a train to Regina. They changed trains at Winnipeg. He went to a dance in Regina and finds Canadians very friendly.
