Strangely enough I was just thinking about that myself. In 1963 I was a cheff in a fast food restaurant and I earned
a dollar an hour, that was about the average for a kid in high school. A cup of coffee was ten cents and you could buy a quarter pound hamberger, order of fries (or onion rings) and a coke for one dollar. I think eighty to one hundred dollars a week was probably about right for a full time employee. For a sheriff, I expect he would have earned a hundred and twenty five dollars a week.Because the owner of the fast food restaurant took home $125.00 a week.
