When Professor Steel wasntt looking the
other day, we snuck into his attic and
filched his prize collection of anti—
quated store bills and letters that have
been lying around Highacres for a couple
of decades. From what can be deduced
from these moth—eaten papers 2 things
must have been lively around this area
in the Roaring Wenties.
Nothing today is Comparable to the Lost
Generation and their fabulous prohibi—
tion cocktail binges, the inimitable
flappers, and other misadventures, un—

crab meat with a fork ,hat cost $llO.

a cold in those,ays, Oh well, at least
the suit was cheap —only 0.35. The
ladies of the house were not ones for
letting the clothes grow on their backs
--either. Here is one thrifty socialite
buying three gowns in one day (6/04)
for a mere total of $570. And she had
the gall to wear them a half year before
she bought another,
