CHAPTER XXIX SCHOOLS AND RATTLESNAKES The schools of this county were at first conducted on the old subscription plan, says W. S. Wilkinson, in a paper on the pioneer schools, read before the Historical Society, in 1905. Some one would go around the district with a subscription paper and the head of each family would subscribe so many scholars for the term at the price stated in the paper. If they secured a sufficient number of pupils the teacher was hired and the school went on. If not, the effort was a failure. Many a subscription paper has gone by default by not securing the required number. The wages paid were about ten dollars a month and the teacher boarded 'round among the scholars, boarding a week at one home, and the next week at another. Girls frequently taught for as low as eight dollars a month. Money was scarce then and the teacher sometimes had to take part of his wages in trade. The schools of the early days were of two kinds. There was the "loud school," and the "silent school." The silent school was where the pupils prepared their lessons silently, as at the present time, and the loud school was where they prepared their lessons in a loud voice all at the same time in school. Both the loud and silent plan had their advocates. In the loud school one scholar would be preparing his spelling lesson: B-a-k-e-r--baker; s-h-a-d-y-- shady; 1-a-d-y--lady; t-i-d-y--tidy; another his reading lesson: "The boy stood on the burning deck, whence all but him had fled," and another: "Mary had a little lamb, its fleece was white as cotton and everywhere that Mary went, the lamb would go a trottin'." I think those were not the words in the book, but something like. They would all be reading their lessons over in a loud voice at the same...

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Mention Madison County and many people think of the iconic covered bridges that have graced the landscape for more than 140 years. While Hollywood made the bridges famous, there are many more stories to share, thanks to Madison County's rich history and vibrant culture. These stories include unforgettable people who shaped America--the men and women of the Underground Railroad in Madison County; renowned scientist George Washington Carver; and social reformer Susan B. Anthony, who advocated for women's voting rights from the county courthouse in 1875. Madison County natives have also made their mark on the world. Marion Morrison, who became the movie star John Wayne, was born in Winterset in 1907. During World War II, Winterset native George Stout protected priceless works of art from being looted and destroyed by the Nazis. A visionary, steadfast spirit continues to thrive in Madison County, where time-honored values of faith, family, and friendship endure. Growing from its strong agricultural heritage, Madison County embodies modern Iowa, where charming small towns, family farms, thriving businesses, and innovative people reflect the best of the Midwest.
