BORDEN — The Borden Museum held an Adventure at the Museum Aug. 19 with Karen Kerr and Elaine Gunsch narrating. Out of their travelling truck they pulled out items for Do You Remember and Saturday Nights in Small Town Sask. Topics covered were homestead tears, before TV, The Depression, First and Second World Wars and before the internet.
Photos and items were handed around for fall, 4-H, school days, threshing days and canning. Items were school books, lunch pails, sealers, radio and women’s items for dressing up to go to town — vanity bench, hankies, powder box. Other items were matchboxes, school bell, magazines, mouse trap jars, movie theatre and gas pumps. They talked about women not 小蓝视频 allowed in bars and how rural people travelled to town by horse and buggy or in a car if they could afford one.
After the presentation juice and cookies were served.
Working at the museum for the summer is Teddie Cutting who has one more week to go.
