Life and times of Rivers in the 1950s Ontario memories
A narrated reminiscence set on Third Avenue in Rivers Ontario detailing a 1950s household. The author recalls a wooden sidewalk, rain-water tubs, a attic ladder, a coal shed, a one holer toilet, and neighbors like Frame and Dawson. Local commerce and wartime brides, plus the Winnipeg Blue Bombers radio fan Mary Moore, appear amid daily chores and community life.
