As a class not remember after selling his popcorn and sandwish turned in front of the Rex cinema, likewise all Sundays after Mass, shining shoes and selling newspapers in our main square in the evening then find it on the stage while everyone enjoyed the favorite sport he engaged in selling their source sandwish and pacifiers after another until the day ended.
