by Louise M. Shafer (Author), Jolly Jills Women's Club (As Told by)

The ladies of the Jolly Jill's Women's Club learned the early day pioneer methods of living from their grandmothers, mothers, and yes, from experience. They have gathered wood, cooked on wood stoves, had gardens, preserved fruits and vegetables, butchered livestock and wild game, and had no electricity or running water. They were not the early pioneers of the frontier, but these ladies lived and experienced similar conditions and learned from the pioneer women in their lives.

• No electricity!
• No refrigeration!
• Make candles so you can have light!
• Running water? Yes, you run and get it!
• You mean you make your own soap?
