So, here we are. As I told you, the country schoolhouse was three miles from my uncle's farm. You wouldn't imagine that there would be a school in the woods, would you? The house held about 24 boys and 20 girls at that time. We went to school once or twice a week in summer. All the pupils brought their lunches in baskets corn cakes, milk, and other good things. We sat in the shade of the trees at noon and ate them. You know how old I was when I went to this school for the first time? I was seven. I can still remember what happened that day. A fifteen-year-old girl stopped me at the gate and asked me if I was used to smoking. I said no. She made a face at me and made fun of me to the crowd, saying, "Here is a boy who is seven years old and can't even smoke! "I didn't understand why that could have possibly been a bad thing, and I continued to my classroom.
