B'ham. England. Sept. 27/50. Dear Mary: Am having a wonderful vacation, but how time flies. Spent one week at Shore, two days at this place, one week in Paris. Went up Eiffel Tower + Arc de Triomphe, there were wonderful views from the top of these buildings. Went to Opera House + saw fine Opera. It's lovely to be back with friends & have sisters once again. See you soon. Remember me to Laura. From Kitty S.
