My dw and I were just speaking of this the other day. Her and her older sister would ride the bicycles downtown to the Woolworths (or was it Newberrys?) and order at their lunch counter. She said she could not have been much older than 8 or 10 years old (and questioned why on earth would her mom let her do that?!). She said they felt so important sitting on the bar stools and deciding what they could afford to order! Life was simpler back then.
