I remember the School Bell which was located in the coat room and it had a rope hanging down to ring the bell.

There was an old water fountain that you had to pull the handle and we all stood in line to get a drink before we went to class.

If and when we would be late for class, Mrs. Mars stood beside the door with a wooden paddle and as we walked in we got a big whop on our bottoms.

Also in the older kids room the stove pipe fell and made a terrible noise so several of us jumped up and ran in there to see what happened. Then when we came back to class there Mrs Mars was and another spat on our bottom.
