Dear readers, My story is set during the Great Depression. A hundred dollars doesn't seem like a lot of money now, but back then, men were working for ten cents an hour, and sugar was ten cents a pound. In the '50s when I entered the workforce, minimum wage was twenty-five cents an hour. So, we learned, take care of your pennies, the dollars will take care of themselves.

There's an old saying, I have often heard, Oh so many times."You can take the girl out of the country, but you can't take the country out of the girl!" I hope I have proved this Fokesey idiom, wrong, when I take my make be live little heroine, from off the farm, then she takes factitious Dunston town, by storm.
