Mature/Silent here, and I must disagree with the statement that chewing gum in class or passing notes were the gravest offences. I regularly got caught with more than five marbles, a sure indication that I had relieved another kid of his aggies and cats eyes via the forbidden game of "keepsies". Penalty....relieved of all my marbles and thirty precious minutes added to my school day....occasionally, a paddle might be involved.
