I remember helping her cut it up. And we even made our own soap up there and everything, you know, and everybody in the valley seemed to do that. That's what Mother's friends did, like Mrs. Taylor, and Naomi and Aunt Becky, and all them. They canned, you know, always during the summer you prepared for the winter. That way, we didn't have a lot of money and we had to make our, Mother used to make our clothes, or she made a lot of my clothes. And we, but we weren't, you know, there wasn't, there just wasn't a lot of money around. I remember going to town with maybe 50¢ to buy 25¢ worth of meat, you could get half a round steak and a loaf of bread and have change left over ... RR: We were better prepared then for a Depression than we are now. BL: If there's a food shortage right now, we're just not prepared, you know. GC: And your scholarship, you were in school when the Depression hit, weren't you, at the University? RR: Yes, and I borrowed some money from the alumnae to finish. |
