[Music from Woody Guthrie's "Hard Times"]
   "When we first moved out here [to Washington State from Colorado] my Dad had rheumatism real bad – in fact, he almost died – and we had to go on "relief" [local welfare programs] what they called it then. We got some food from them, and we got sometimes clothes. And then, my mother and them would make clothes out of flour sacks. And things [the sacks] that they gave us were all printed. Of course, we used those for dresses and underpants and everything we could possible use them for."
   [Question:] "Flour sacks for underpants!?"
   "Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah. You utilized everything then. This was a case of 'Have to.'"
