While going to trade school we also recieved $65.00 per month in subsistance while in school. Believe it or not, while going to trade school in a nearby city they had a free lunch counter near the train station at a bar. Buy a beer and eat sandwitches and hard boiled eggs with no charge for food. Mug of beer was .10 cents but we usually had two. Three of us from nearby towns went to this trade schooll each weekday by train together from 10 A.M. to

4 P.M.. After living through the whole damn depression era I felt I was living "high off

the hog".. Especially being young and single.

Hey, that's not a bad deal. Where you gonna eat for free today?
