BY THE OLD TIMER From Mary Cerkan, Chehalis, Washington: I remember when mothers stayed home and took care of their children, and left the job of providing fbr the' faroiiv up to man of' the houses I remember when children were taught respect, and if they sassed their parents, they were knocked half way across the room with a well aimed slap in the mouth, and it didn't make any difference where they were or who saw it. I remember when kids were caught lying or stealing, dad took down his razor strap and gave them a lesson on their rear end that they didn't forget easily. I remember when kids had chores to do and if they wanted anything, they worked for it. I remember when all the family sat down to meals together, and if a child was late for a meal, that was serious. Before a child sat down to eat, his hair was combed and the wash job on his hands and face usually had to pass inspection. If children didn't mind their table manners they were told to "leave the table". Last' but not least, I remember when children were made to go to church on Sunday. When one got balky, mother wasn't above using a keen l i t t l e switch on the legs, and if necessary, right up to the church door.
