So the young people were free. That was the only thing, the only enjoyment, to go out for a walk, to go swimming. We had a little river. It wasn't any ocean, but we had a little river, swimming. We got together a youth organization, just to get together in one room, by one family, and we had a little library, their own, and people took books.
People read a lot.
I think people, young people even in those times were. People were more educated and they knew more than the young people now. They had such a broad education, and they participated. We read more. Everybody read a lot.
