What kind of clothing did you wear? Were there fads? How were your clothes different from clothes and hairstyles toady?

I wore levi's and western style shirts for the most part. I am sure there were fads but not in the small town of Duchesne. We were pretty much all farmers and wore fairly plain clothes that could be ordered from Sears catalogs. We usually got a couple pair of pants and a couple shirts. However most of the time I didn't have to get any because I had hand-me-down clothes to wear. The hair styles were fairly simple for boys. My hair was cut about once a month by my mother or later my brother Stan. Hairstyles are different for the girls but I can't explain how but I can tell you to pull out my yearbooks and the changes will be obvious.
