I found this photo of my father, standing outside the school where he taught? Looks like there’s a rope to pull a bell. But I don’t know
My father taught all grades in a one room schoolhouse in Illinois and this was BEFORE he went to college.

I love these old photos. xo
Ruth, The recipe you put in for your Birthday Cake ,My mother’s recipe paper is dated 12, 14 , 1940. Hot Milk Sponge cake exact recipe. Yes ,I’m a 40’s baby. Also, I love the picture. I also ,have had old negatives printed that I have found that makes for interesting pictures.
A classic recipe for sure. Thank you for sharing your memories of your mother’s cake.
I. looked at the picture with the students and thought, “that is a whole lot of kids!”
A very different time. Great photo. Dc
His students don’t look particularly happy – but he does! A K-12 teacher before he went to college; that’s something!
