The automobile was just becoming available, for example. Or consider home freezers. I mean, what happened to the meat if you shot all the neighbor's chickens? Read these three stories from a mischievous childhood in the small north Georgia town of Dalton. Following the stories, a section of History Tidbits offers entertaining background facts on topics relating to the stories, such as the marvelous invention of the electric refrigerator, the ancient roots of playing with marbles, the new electric cars that competed with the gasoline engine and why gasoline won out. Find out about the mounting levels of horse manure in New York City and why it was everyone's hope that the gasoline car would clean things up.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Laurie J.
