Piggott High School's wonderful biology teacher in the 60's used to say: "We don't want industry to come to Piggott. It will change our way of life."
She also used to say: "Don't worry about making a C on this test. We need street sweepers and ditch diggers."
And if she was particularly groused at your behavior in class, she would say: "You will be excommunicated, decapitated and boiled in oil."
She was loved for her total dedication to her profession and for her quirkiness. And she was very sincere about not wanting to change her way of life in a small town.
