Baytown Nurses Cookbook funded scholarships with ads
The East Harris County Registered Professional Nurses Society cookbook, likely published after 1963, funded a scholarship fund through cookbook sales. It lists scholarship recipients from 1952 to 1963 and preserves memories of local ads featuring Higginbotham Motor Co, Guys n Dolls, Brunson Food Market, Odorless Cleaners, Peoples State Bank and O Brien’s with ties to Baytown figures and history.
