Look at old pics of Depression-era bread lines.

That is a shocking way to drive home the point. People had PRIDE, even when down, but not out.

I was house-hunting recently and noticed that all houses built prior to about 1950 had tiny closets with hardly any room for clothes.

Come to find out, prior to that era, most people only owned a couple suits of clothing. And they called it a "suit of clothing" because suits was all they ever wore. All his adult life, my father never once wore a pair of shorts or went in public without at least a collared shirt and tie. Anything less was considered "juvenile" or effeminate.

Not sure I want to go back to those standards but I'll settle for the "business casual" look.

Also note there are NO women or kids either. This picture says a lot about not only attire, but also a lot about the family.
