Growing up outside of Temple

This came from Cora Nowlin Curtis:
My sister, Jean Nowlin Brubaker, and I remember the shoe store next to the beer joint. We all went in every spring and the "shoeshop man" would draw our feet and make us wonderful sandals. My dad, Rufus Nowlin, made sure we had nice new brown leather sandals and that we did not look into the beerjoint windows as we walked by to be fitted. He thought that would taint our characters.
