Would use brown paper bags, funny papers or just regular news paper to protect our school books. Remember you had to sign the book on receiving it, some books were so old, had many signatures inside. Actually had history books back then as well with the same requirements, you owned it until turn in, or payed for it. Never paid for a book, knew it would have come out of my backside. World was a lot better off back in those days! Yep, on book day I learned to look for the books with the smart girls signed on inside cover because the would write notes/underline in the books before high lighters. If did n't have your own vehicle, we used to bring out shotguns or rifles with us into the gym locker room after hunting before school and stand them in coaches office corner and leave them there all day and pick em up on way out after the after school practice just in time to hunt last light. Every pick up had a gun rack with some gun in it all the time.

x2 also going to the dentist, and that HUGE metal/glass syringe of Novocaine he kept in the large beaker of blue alcohol, and used the same one on EVERYBODY...  taking lunch to school in a brown paper bag once I was 'too old' to be taking a 'lunchbox'. learning/memorizing 'times tables' (multiplication) from a single half-sheet card that listed them all, up to 12x12 getting smacked on the palms with a yardstick by the nun for 'cracking-up' /talking in class.

The Taco Villa in my town sponsored our school systems book covers. They all had the Taco Villa logo, and an extra flap that was a coupon you could tear off for a free bean burrito. Teachers had to oversee the distribution so no kid could abuse the system and make off with a stack of free burritos.

If a teacher takes my burrito coupon, they go into the mean category.

The teacher couldn't take these away from you because they are not candy.  ![[Linked Image]](https://texashuntingforum.com/forum/pics/userpics/2020/09/full-55403-251555-smith_brothers_cough_drops.jpeg)
