Went to a 1 room School House 8 years (48-56) Butler,Mo 65 miles south of Kansas City, well water was always rusty for a couple of months. Weeds were always high , sometimes someone would mow them before school started.

We played marbles,softball,(wasn't allowed to have a baseball-someone might get hurt),a basketball,wrestled a lot and played Cowboy and Indians. The most we ever had in school was 23. We used to have box suppers and whoever had the highest bid could set with that girl and eat with her.

(Always got worse when we got home) Probably would be considered abuse today but it taught us to be honest,have good morals and we would be better off today if we could return to the values taught in a one room schoolhouse.
