The town of Lebanon serves as the central hub for this Ozark landscape, where the St Louis and San Francisco railroad and Highway No 66 intersect. This early 1940s survey reveals a dense network of rural infrastructure, defined by an extraordinary concentration of country schools such as High Prairie Sch, Dry and Dusty Sch, and Upper Odell Sch. These small schoolhouses, often spaced just a few miles apart, indicate a highly decentralized and active rural population before the mid-century trend toward district consolidation.
