Crosses are ubiquitous, and the flap of the envelope usually bears the mystic formula, S.W.A.K. This apparently means "Sealed with a kiss," which, considering that the sealing is done not by the writer but by the Censor, seems to take a good deal for granted. Most of the letters acknowledge the receipt of a "parcle"; many give a guarded summary of the military situation.
