In the posts about what you have lived thru, nobodly mentioned taking guns to school, or spankings. I went to a 1 room country school with 14 to 16 students, 1st thru 8th grade. In the winter the bigger kids often brought guns to school, and shot the families meat supply for the day, on the walk home from school. Oh thats another one, walking to and from school. The guns were put in the coat room, a small hall built onto the school house, and the owner kept the shells in his or her pocket. There was never a problem. Perhaps one reason there was never a problem, for most of the years I attended this school, the teacher kept a hitch rein in her desk drawer. For those of you who do not know what a hitch rein is, imagine a leather belt about 6 feet long and you got it. I remember one occasion where that teacher chased a ornery boy all over that school house and hit ever kid present except the one she was after. But we all lived. My father shaved with a straight razor and for spanking his weapon of choice was his razor strap. A razor strap is a leather strap about 2 inches wide and 18 or 20 inches long and was used to hone the straight razor to its final sharpness.
