    3. Richard your idea of a hat rack is inspired! Lynn and Barbara your poems touched my heart. Barbara and Sandy--Prayers are answered--it is so good to see posting once again. JUDY MARY JOANN LEONA LIV HELEN DOLORES Because of all the wonderful ideas sent it---I think we should vote when everyone has had time to send us their ideas. Does this sound fair? CHANGE SUBJECT: >From the memories stirred in me by your postings. Gramma would send me to the store (I was a child who could keep a secret) for a Twist of Tobaccy---and they were twisted like a figure 8. But now I am remembering the men going to the store for a Plug of Tobacco. What is the difference---was there a difference? Also can anyone else remember their male Kin rolling their own cigarettes? It always amazed me how quickly and neatly they could roll their cigarettes. And they would give me the Prince Albert Tins--I know there were other tobacco in Tins but I remember Prince Albert--I thought his picture was pretty, for my treasures. Richard you stirred this memory in me---does anyone else remember a piece of furniture somewhere between a dresser and a hat-rack. It had a mirror--drawers and along the sides of the mirror pegs to hang one's hats. In our family this piece of furniture always set in the hallway. What was this piece of furniture called? I had not thought of it in years. Does anyone else think we need a picture of a banjo--fiddle--or guitar? Ramona ps memory flash! the men would use the cuffs of their jeans or overalls to flip their ashes in. Remember?
