Show 2nd WARD SACRAMENT COMINS & GOINGS CHIT CHAT By Vllda BY EST A The delicious smell from a basket of apples started my memory going back to the days when almost everything a family used was grown by themselves and stored away for the winter. At least this was true in smaller communities. There were no super markets in those days and folks didn't have much money to buy with if there had been, but what a sight it was when all the bins in the old dirt celler were filled with apples, potatoes and other vegetables, the grainery was overflowing with golden wheat, corn and oats, and the pantry shelves filled with bottled fruit and rows of smoked pork were hanging ready for use. This is a sight most young folk Too bad. never see bad. Remember the sacks of dried beans and flour, newly gristed, stacked on the rafters of the grainery? What a feeling of satisfaction this must have been to those who had worked so hard to provide for the coming winter. I remember the Dixie ped dlers in their covered wagons who came in the late summer and early fall with fruit and molasses. They traded for money or produce they couldn't grow in their hot climate. (For years I didn't know there was another 'Dixie'). Those were the days when the winter foods depended on the summer's work. No modern conveniences just muscle and sweat. Do you remember how good a chew of wheat gum was? It took me a long time to learn to chew it until it became gum, but how yummy. Have you ever lost your coat and found it on a bin of apples the next morning? All day it had that delicious fragrance. Remember the cold winter nights when the family gathg ered around the old kitchen stove to make taffy, molasses candy or pop corn? Those were the extra special treats. In those days the kitchen was the "family room' and the parlor was used only for special company and funerals. In those days the family was the hub of all things. They worked and played together and they stayed together. Looking back on it I can understand why Thanksgiving meant so much to folks in those days. No other day except the Fourth of July meant so much. Thanksgiving was the day when all individual family units met together to celebrate the success of the past harvest. It took the biggest house in the family for so many to get together, but what fun for all the cousins and other folks I shall never forget it. The women assembled in the kitchen to compare their pantry stock, and the men took a tour of the grain ery and corrals to gloat a bit on their accomplishments before sitting down to a lavish meal of the choicest dishes from each family. Those were the days when folks depended upon the generosity of the Lord, the sweat of their own brows, and they really appreciated their blessings. That was a time when the change of the season meant something more than a change of wardrobe. now-a-day- s. WINTERSTARS the Tires with the MOST GO in SNOW!
