I got $3 a week for the paper route and $1.25 a week for sweeping the school. I did both jobs for 4 years. So I made $4.25 a week which was more than some men were able to get then. A widow lady had opened a clothes shop in town to support herself and I went in and bought my mom (Florence Lavon Dale Jobe born 1909 and died 1980) a gingham dress for 98 cents. She knew my mom so she picked out the right size. I was so proud to give my mom that dress! The storeowner always remembered me buying my mom that dress, would mention it even into the late 1970's before she died--she always liked me and told me many times she wished I had married her daughter--ha! With those two jobs, I bought my own clothes and for my younger brother, too. I was able to help my parents and I was very proud to do it." Part 3 to be continued Christmas Week
