Well, I was born in Deshler. I was there until I was about three and half and then that was in town. We lived right within a couple houses from a barbershop. I was told that when I was little I knew how to get to the barbershop because daddy would take me so many times with him, you know?

So, there’s this little store close to the barbershop and of course I knew all about that. So, one day I got up and somebody had given me a nickel. They said, “That’s for candy.”

So, I thought well I guess I’ll go to the store and get some candy. So I just had a little slip on and I thought I was dressed so I went down to the store and reached up to give the man my nickel and my brother rushed and grabbed me around under the arms and carried me home.

He said, “You know you should not have come down here without any clothes on!” I didn’t know any better! I was only three and a half. Anyway, that was the end of that! I had to have somebody with me after that.
