Living as a teenager

We had beans, fried potatoes, Water cornbread.  Bacon and eggs. sausage and eggs. This was more than some who had less.  Hobos, passing through would  knock at our door asking for food.  They would tell the story that they mark houses where fed, so they could find the right place to eat.  Our cloths did not meet the style of today, but was to last till worn out.  Shoes;  have seen some placing stiff paper in the shoes, where holes was in the bottom.  During 1942, gasoline was rationed.  A,B. C was the cards stuck in the window of your car; One for farmers,  one for importment people.  Shoes were rationed along with sugar.  I bought my first Saving Bond on 1942 .  I was a full grown teenager now, looking for something better than the World condition today.
