Not only that but, if she isn't allowed to be married, where will the next generation of teachers come from? Apparently men weren't allowed/chosen to be teachers. Or maybe they didn't have the same set of rules.

Thank you Rebel, my brother and son always talk tech/ computers while I am the lowly idiot, who is too dumb to understand (their words not mine). I love it when I pass along things you post on here, that they DIDN'T KNOW.

Plus thanks to you I learn something. I never knew that about ice cream shops - probably more "ice cream" lovers then, than today. At TGIF restaurants my BIL used to order alcoholic milkshakes, I wondered who thought 'that' up. Now I know it was a throwback to prohibition times.

No, teachers had to be single an female.

Taking care of kids was thought of as womans work. A married womans job was to be home taking care of her husband, home an her kids. That by default meant that only single women were given teaching jobs.

What was taught was not regulated from what I have been told. It was generally reading, writing, math an an government. Religion or anything that could be seen to effect religion an anatomy were off the table though. Varied though cause parents made those rules face to face with the teachers.

My grandmother said her principle was a man but she does not remember having any male teachers. Her teachers were married though. She started school in the early 30s. She had a teacher named Ms Ballard. Her son became a teacher an was my teacher. His son teaches here now.

Almost all mixed drinks started in prohibition. Before prohibition you got beer an spirits locally. It was made weak enough to be drank strait. Prohibition changed everything. Transporting it was hard. They went from making 50 proof drinkable spirits to 150 proof rot gut. That meant 3 time the product in each jug an 3 times the product in each shipment. The bar tender then had to figure out how to cut it by 2 thirds. Something that would have gotten you shot years before. He also had to hide the nasty taste that is part of having to buy from unknown suppliers. So it became common to make drinks that were 1 third spirits an 2 thirds made up of strong flavored local drinks.
