With these vintage school supplies, take a trip back in time.
You probably remember your school days with nostalgia if you are between 45 and 65 years old. The classrooms were very different then than they are now. Let’s go back in time and remember certain things that are no longer taught in schools.
The best companion of a musician is an antique chalkboard.
If you loved music, you most likely remember seeing an old chalk holder at the school. Teachers loved these little tools when they had to create music on the whiteboard. Chalk holders are hard to obtain by these days. What other antiquated instruments were utilized in classrooms back then, do you think?
Hero Uncle Rushes Into Flames to Save 8-Year-Old Girl – What Happens Next Will Shock You
A man from Washington is being called a hero after he ran into a burning house to save his eight-year-old niece.
According to reports, 20-year-old Derrick Byrd suffered second and third-degree burns on his face, back, and arms after rushing into the house when he realized his niece was trapped inside.
Speaking to KOMO-TV, Byrd said: “Even though I got burnt, I didn’t really care. I’d rather get burnt than her. She’s young and still has so much ahead of her. She’s a good kid.”
The fire broke out in a home in Aberdeen, Washington, while Derrick Byrd and six other family members were inside, including his sister Kayla and her three children.
When the fire spread, Byrd helped his nephews, Junior and Royce, jump out of a second-story window to safety. However, his eight-year-old niece Mercedes was too scared to jump after watching her mother, Kayla, fall from the roof.
Without hesitating, Byrd ran back into the burning house to save Mercedes. He quickly felt the flames burning him.
“I could feel it burning me,” he said.
Byrd wrapped his shirt around Mercedes’ face to protect her from the smoke and carried her out of the house as fast as he could.
Despite suffering burns, Byrd said he’d do it all again if needed.
“I’d run back in there and do it again, even if I got burnt worse or died,” he said.
When people called him a hero, Byrd humbly responded, “I wouldn’t say I’m a hero. I just wasn’t going to let my niece and nephews die.”
