A Paper Bag? What luxury!!! Hell we lived in a half of a rolled up newspaper in a sewer, all 27 of us! Had to get up at 5:00 AM to go to the mines and work a 26 hour day,9 days a week, for for a take home wage of 18 cents.....a month! When we got home we'd have to sweep the newsprint and do schoolwork til the cows came home and shit on the newspaper which forced us all to get up and have breakfast before going back to the mine.

Next.........
