I also remember my shoes mildewing in the closet in those days, so it wasn't much cooler or drier. I don't miss not having AC.
Mom remembers the summer of 1936 when the temp got up to 107F. I think they may have had an electric fan. Only thing air conditioned was the new theater in town. with a large steam powered vacuum unit -- must have been pure hell working the boiler in there! Salt pills were new then, and probably helped when you were dripping sweat all day. _______________________________________ http://www.okiebenz.com To search list archives http://www.okiebenz.com/archive/ To Unsubscribe or change delivery options go to: http://mail.okiebenz.com/mailman/listinfo/mercedes_okiebenz.com
