Yes, this is a true story from the American frontier. I got it first-hand from my grandmother who was there as the young schoolteacher in a one-room schoolhouse. All kids brought guns every day. And so did their teacher. Find out why, and find out how they were able to pass exams with questions like the following at age 14:
