One for milk, one for potatos, one for sugar, etc. Must have been around 1944 or 1945......wooden sleds.....quart glass milk bottles...we got McAdams milk. or the "pony boy" ice cream wagon....got many a splinter from the wood on back of the wagon.

Gosh yes, I remember those days too. When in junior high and high school you wore skirts or dresses and you had to wear socks or stockings! I walked to junior high, it was nearly two miles as we didn't fit the mileage for a bus.
I remember getting my first pair of stockings in 8th grade and could wear them to church only! And yes dresses/skirts were the dress for church always!
Going out on a date was a big thing, what to wear, how to fix hair, nails polished and perfume (toilet water really )
Those were the good ole days!

When my mother passed away in 1985 we found some of those ration books tucked back in a corner of her bureau.
