I REMEMBER BY THE OLD TIMER « From Elva F. Fotch, Pomona, California: I remember my mother boiled all her coffee, baked all the bread, made butter, and washed on a board. In winter she melted icicles as there was no running water in the house. She used a wood-burning stove and heated our bath water on top of the stove. In winter, we bathed in front of the open oven door. Mother heated bricks to warm our feet in bed. She made cough syrup of onions and honey. It was my daily job to olfean and fill the lamps with kerosene and bring in wood for the wood box. The outhouse was on the back end of the lot and during winter we had to shovel a path to get to it. In winter, we slept on feather beds, in summer, on strato-filled mattresses. On cold winter nights we all sat around the heater while dad cracked nuts for us and mama made popcorn. It was a thrill to come home from school and smell mother's bread, and a big kettle of stew or vegetable soup. We sat around a big table, with a bright oil cloth cover -- and talked and laughed. Gone are the days of those memories -- for hippies and jazz music. It's sad to see what today's children have -- and what they have missed. f ($Ktd contribution* to tftti column to THo Old Timer, Be* 639, FronMoH, Konntucfcy 4060.) J CHASE . . .
