Pine Grove
School To

(Continued from Pago One)
fried chicken and four-layer
cakes, all were held in the
school.
There were no telephones in
the 'BUs and '90s, and notes were
sent home by children or the
word of mouth method was used
to advertise a gathering.
The notes always gave the
time as "early candlelight," not
7 or 7:30.
Entertainment
One long-time resident remem
bered with delight the "wagon
allows'' which went through the
country and stopped at the
school. Sometimes it was a man
with a trained dog and another
timo it might be a sleight-of-hand
artist who provided virtu
ally all the entertainment Pine
Grovers were apt to see outside
of what they arranged for them
selves. The one-room school, a build
ing approximately 18 by 30 feet,
was ruled over by one teacher.
In the center ws an old box
wood stove. The youngsters
whn cat rlnc hv were virtually
fried as the stove roared out its
' heat in the cold winter days. The
boys and girls on the outer
fringe were near to freezing.
Water was carried daily from
the old Shreeve place across
from the Gooding ranch, now a
part of the Andrew Collier and
Brumbaugh places. Bigger boys
in the school toted the water in
buckets. '
Big families were the rule in
those days. Sometimes six,
seven or eight children from one
family answered roll call in the
morning. There were no grades,
the classes went by ""reader."
You were in the '"first reader,"
"second reader" and so on.
A regular program of athletics
was unknown. The big boys
played ball during the proper
season and it was a common
sight to see a large fellow, with
one of the "first readers" on his
shoulder as a handicap, swat the
ball and run for first base.
There was a little fuss in the

old school. Source and basis of
the quarrel have been lost with
the years but the fact remains
that one side in the argument got
busy during the night, rutcned
up the horses, put the little
building on skids and moved it
closer to the road and at a loca
tion where it remained undis
turbed for years.
Early Day Teachers
One of the early day teachers
of the old school was Katie
Grigsby Dennis, sister of B. S.
"Back Grigsby of this city. An
other teacher was a Mrs. Thorpe
who later married a Jim Cooper. J
l ne laie Juage jonn o. vjrr was i
another of the early teachers
and there was a Mr. Getty abouu
whom there was quite a scandal.
Members of the board learned
that Mr. Getty SMOKED and he
was fired without much ado.
Pine Grove youngsters were not
to be exposed to vice.
Church was held every Sun
day morning. Some of the early
ministers were J. W. Bryant,
(father of Mrs. Will Wood of this
city). Uncle John Hunsaker, J. P.
Lee, (father of Mrs. A. J. Voye
and Mrs. Fred Schallock), J. B.
Griffith, (father of Mrs. Ira
Orem), a Rev. Frank Wallace,
whose widow, now 77 years of
age. is spending her last years
