We had teachers that by todays rules were abusive without doubt. That picture could have two sides, and only a few will actualy know the truth.
Seems funny we pay our teachers big wages, but can't afford to place a $30.00 camera from Walley world in the class room for a fact finding proof to the parents or school board.
My dad tells of the country school that was over run by the kids. Teachers refused to work there after a day or two. They hired a male who read a book in the back of the class the first day without looking up.
The second day he started by asking the biggest guy to go up to the front of the slate board and draw a circle. He then told the boy to make it a small circle. As the boy finished drawing the small circle the teacher pulled out a 22 pistol and shot a hole dead center of the circle. He then anounced "yesterday was your day, the rest are mine"!!!
Dad said the kids respected him real well after that.
Anyone got a idea what would happen today if that was to take place?
I recall kids leaning back on two legs of their chair instead of all four. The teacher would come from behind and tip the chair over backwards. The kids head would hit the tile floor and smack down pretty hard, but no one ever got hurt that I can remember.
The girls all wore short skirts and dresses, and perhaps weren't real good at sitting like a lady. The male teachers always had those girls in the front of the class room for some odd reason. Kinda unfair to the rest of the male boys in the room as I recall it.
Two teachers married girls in our school after leaving their wives and kids. So just because their degree is in teaching, I'm never convinced that it is always the kids fault. And needless to say we know all kids aren't angles either.

In the early 1950s my father bought an Allis Chalmers B and I used it for all the row crop work with the mangolds and potatoes, rolling and the haymaking on our farm. The farm and the Allis were sold and I have spent a lifetime working on farms throughout the country. I promised myself that one day I would own an Allis. That time event
