This week, contractors removing old chalkboards at Emerson High School in Oklahoma City made a startling discovery: Underneath them rested another set of chalkboards, untouched since 1917.
“The penmanship blows me away, because you don’t see a lot of that anymore,” Emerson High School Principal Sherry Kishore told the Oklahoman. “Some of the handwriting in some of these rooms is beautiful.”

That was back before the elites cared so much about all of us.
It's a shame that school is nothing like this now.
It was a time of American ascension, we are now in decline.
I bet the handwriting is beautiful. They don't even teach it in schools today and kids today probably can't read it either.
A time when most people did not have electricity and running water. Many diseases that are easily cured today would kill you back then. But somehow they were smarter then and we are on the decline now? I am so glad I'm living in this day and age and not back then.
I guess December never had 31 days in 1917.
