I re-asked my 90 year old grandmother one evening, "Pop-pop worked 45 years as a teacher in Dubois County, right?"
Her reply, "......43........It would have been 45 but he lost 2 years to politics.......the republicans were in office for two years...."
"it was entirely different than it is now.......it was a trustee system......"
"he could have bought himself a school but he knew that was wrong.......so we went without....
those were hard years...."
