 * // 1872 Teachers Rules //**
 * 1) Teachers each day will fill lamps and clean chimneys.

 * 3) Make your pens carefully. You may whittle nibs to the individual taste of pupils.
 * 4) Men teachers may take one evening each week for courting purposes. Or two evenings a week if they go to church regularly.
 * 5) After ten hours in school, the teachers may spend the remaining time reading the bible or other good books.
 * 6) Women teachers who marry or engage in unseemly conduct will be dismissed.
 * 7) Every teacher should set aside from each pay a goodly sum of their earnings for their benefit during their declining years so that they will not become a burden to society.
 * 8) Any teacher who smokes, uses liquor in any form, frequents pool halls, or gets shavee in a barber shop will give good reason to suspect their worth, intention, integrity and honesty.
 * 9) The teacher who performs his labor faithfully and without fault for five years will be given an increase of twenty-five cents a week in their pay, providing the board of education approves.
