I am looking at a copy of Woman's Home Companion Cook Book, P.F. Collier &
Son Corporation, New York, 1942, 1943, which was my Mother's. The Wartime
Postscript begins with "As this book goes to press our country is at war.
Inevitably food shortages will develop. We may not be able to buy our usual
amount of sugar nor the full line of canned foods to which we have become
accustomed.
But take it in stride..."

I'm not sure how she came to own it but when she died in '99, it was one
item that I had to keep because it was part of a life-time memory of 'my Mom
in the kitchen'.
