Waltz, MI, about 25 miles S of Detroit, in the late 40s and early
50s. It might make a difference that this was a Lutheran
parochial school. I think I was taught the same thing at
Concordia College in Milwaukee, a Lutheran boys' residential high
school and junior college.

By the way, I recall learning in elementary school that the
plural of dwarf was dwarves and that dwarfs was unacceptable.
Just thought I'd throw in some of my own Standard English
conditioning.
