Hey Jeanette & Terry - I found the answer for you guys... Joe was right... Good job Joe...

In the old days the filaments used in pencils were made of different material than today's graphite which is charcoal colored and its particles separate easily on friction with the paper surface leaving clear marks.

The old material did not leave much of a mark on the paper due to its high density. It was water soluble and if left in a water filled container ,will dissolve completely. On contact with water it changes color from dark charcoal like color to violet blue. In order to leave a clear mark on paper it was necessary to actually moisten the tip of the pencil filament with your saliva ,the resulting product behaved and flowed like ink.

Joe - I just love the memories!!! I remember them all... We would always nail bottle caps all over those home made wagons... I remember my brother taking my skates to make his wagon & all I had left was the skate key... lol

Like Edith Bunker would say: Those Were The Days.....

Terry & Judy - This is for you guys... I think it is the old kind of slide puzzle...

Patsy, Janet & Joe... Sorry I missed you guys tonight.... Hope to talk to you tomorrow...

Night All!!! Sleep Tight!!
