Walter Steiner
By admin
Walter Steiner’s grandparents arrived to Canada because it was not easy to make money in Europe. They purchased a homestead where Walter Steiner resides today and cleared it. Mr. Steiner’s grandpa travelled to Saskatchewan to assist with the harvest to earn some extra money.
Mr. Steiner attended Oldenburg School where he finished grade 7. His father and mother engaged in building or threshing bees with the neighbours.
During the drought, the sun’s rays were so hot that some of the wheat got burned.
It was also difficult during the depression. His father made $1 a day. A new model T cost about $600.
Mr. Steiner thinks that the days were still the “Good old days” because people were happier and families were closer.
