    Did you notice that every man is wearing a hat? Whether in the country or city, at one time all men wore hats and many women also.

    Are those apples? I didn't realize that apples were distributed as surplus commodities.

    This was just more then a year before Pearl Harbor. Most history books will tell you the Depression was over by then. The reality is that it wasn't over until the war industry started up.
