You receive a message that a cousin of yours has been killed in the Battle of the Bulge. You may want to make a memorial for him. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ It's the beginning of the month and you lose your ration book. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Lucky you! You have been recognized as collecting the most scrap metal in this month's scrap drive. You will get to lead an upcoming parade! ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Having a son fighting in the Air Force makes buying supplies easier. You are often allowed more than your ration because of your son's bravery. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ You found five dollars. Will you buy a record or will you buy War Bonds? ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Your next door neighbors are opposed to the war because they are Quakers. Their son fights the draft. Does this change your opinion? ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Eleanor Roosevelt shakes your hand at a rally you attend! ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Your younger sibling has developed a bad toothache and you are saving as much money as you can for the war. Do you go to the dentist or pull the tooth yourself? ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ You plan a party to celebrate the victory in Normandy, France. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ You avoid a scam today. Someone offered you shares in a company which would build something called a television after the war is over. Something like that will never catch on. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Lucky you! You get the autograph of Jesse Owens, the great Olympic track star. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Your next door neighbor is pregnant. Her husband has been away to war for over two years. Does this change your attitude towards her? ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Someone takes your journal and reads it and says that you should be a professional writer. This makes you consider publishing memoirs after the war. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ You receive mail from a Japanese American friend of yours who is interned in a relocation camp during the war. Do you reply to the message or ignore it? ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Business has never been better! With the war going on, there is always a place to sell produce from your farm at a good price. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ You find metal in on your land. Do you keep it or give it to the scrap drive? ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Racial tensions are still high, but with the common enemy of the Axis, they have subsided a bit. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ An older relative hates your music and ends up braking one of your jazz records. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Congratulations! The mayor is giving you and your two best friends an award for collecting the most paper this month. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Your output on the farm has surpassed your quota! You receive an award for a job well done!
