Some people find it easy to
throw things away. My neighbors
have big trash bags each week sit
ting in front of thdrhbmes. Some
times even broken furniture or a
nig is being disposed of there.
My family always saved every
thing “You never know when
you might need it,” they said.
Even I find it difficult to throw
away old calendars with beautiful
pictures. And of course, there is a
ball of string in a drawer, that
keeps getting lugger as I seldom
use any of it My father saved the
license plates from this 1923

Overland car and he repaired my
little express wagon for me. It is
rather fragile but I can still use it
to pull the grandchildren.
Letters have always been saved
and the ones that Nancy wrote to
me when she was in college me
now her diary of those years. I
remember seeing letters written in
a pink-lavendar ink by my Grand
father to my Grandmother Landis
in 1872. And, I wonder if the ink
was made from pokewood berries.
Cards and letters written in Ae late
1800 s tell of another time when
Aeir work was different and yet
the same. They picked stones out
of die fields and canned cherries
and peaches even as we do. They
were concerned about each others
health the same as we are now.
Some of the memorabilia that I
have given away recently included
a 1918 funeral notice with the
envelope edged in black. One was
a Latin book from Shippen School
in Lancaster. Another item that
was appreciated was an 1899 pic
ture of a child in a yard taken by a
professional photographer. The
background was a group of very
large houseplants.
Just now tin match holders, cof
fee grinders, tiny crocks and glass
telephone insulators are collecti
ble items. If you keep items long
enough they will be considered to
be antiques. Sometimes a particu
lar piece of furniture will even
bring thousands of dollars. The
problem is to know which items to
save and which ones to dispose of
when they’re no Iciiger useful.
