The Red Mud school was a one-room house with one teacher for all grades. the day was spent from early until late getting all the grades in. There were no churches. Occasionally a preacher came by and preached at the school house. Everyone attended regardless of their faith or belief.
The county was not organized when the Airharts came, but later J.H. Airhart served as county judge and county commissioner. The eight Airhart children are all living but only two still live in the county - - Bertha, who married Jim McArthur, and Edna, who became Mrs. Ed McArthur. Bertha has not lived any where but Dickens County since she was seven years old.
