But I was higher class..I carried a metal lunch bucket that lard had come in, ate home made ham covered with mustard in a biscuit sandwich and drank room temp butter milk in a pint jar.
But I got to eat in the eating room of the school cafe, it had huge posters all over the walls with a big ear on one saying "Even the Walls have Ears" and "Jack Sprat could eat no fat and his wife could eat no Lean" which showed that married couple, a skinny man and a fat woman.
Another one told us to buy WAR BONDS and I think every week I took in a dime for a stamp for a savings book.
