One Room School / Haigler Museum Idea is born

Floy mentioned yesterday about the oneroom school project you have now undertaken. Great! - There is a bound book called "Memories of Country Schools near Haigler, Nebraska" that was published I believe in 1985 - by, I think The Woman's Club.

My mother, Opal Collicott, taught at East 10, Cheyenne County in early 40's.---and speaking of country schools - most are long gone; however, there is still one holding on -at least the basic frame is still there - it is South 67 out by Richard Wall's place. Stan's mother went to that school. -

We are investigating possibilities of "saving it" and moving it to Haigler - but cost may be prohibitive - wouldn't it be neat to have it become a little Haigler museum? - Anyway, we are dreaming of possibilities.- more later. - LaNeta
