Overheard
In 1933, at the age of 11, I was a Girl Scout in Erie, Pennsylvania, and I had the privilege of taking part in the very first year of the National Girl Scout cookie sale. The price at the time was 15 cents for 12 sugar cookies and the only flavor offered. This was in the Great Depression and 15 cents was, quite a sum.
