Florence Laxson Oilman, today the c-nly woman lehool principal in Klamath County, who could double for a Dior, model in her office, yet pines for the big outdoors and stream fishing .In old clothes with her husband, can think of no other profession more exciting than teaching. She is strictly "city born,", . . bafts her own hooks, takes off her own catch, but wants the comfort of a motel kitchen stoVe instead of sixiling her trout over .a campfire. She has fished most of Oregon's streams and part of the sea coast. ' -. "Mrs. Ollmann has knitted over 100 pairs of bright-hued socks for friends and relatives, loathing her; nerves with this womanly art, after busy days with the boys end girls at Fairview whom she adores. ' - , She was born in South Dakota, where wind-swept snow hugs the earth in winter and the granite profiles of great men, brood above the land. The rudiments of teaching were learned at the Iowa State Teacher's College . . she ,eame West in 1924 and married. Her first teaching assignment in Klamath Falls was at the school she now heads, when she guided sixth grade students through their textbooks ... Fre : mont kept her busy for another year and then when Joseph Conger, was brand new, her superintendent sent her there as principal. In 1936 she was back at Fairview, still in an execu tive role, end there she is today, ready to remember the humorous happenings of the many years in her profession , ; t the days when mud was' so deep on the Conger playground, she had to pluck the youngsters out and scrub 'em up before they went to classrooms . . . the little boys who swore, and the goody-goody ones . . . she's firm in belief that the weather effects the students and can tell by the barometer whether the day will be good or bad under the school house roof, it : She remembers how kind the folks of Klamath Falls ware during the war years when Mr. Ollmann, district foreman in the meter department for the Oregon-California Water Com Imission, was In the Seabees . . . how cooperative her. faculties have been . . i how welcome th messages from dozens of her former students are, who after many years, still "look her up" and send her friendly letters . . .she has taught children of many of her former .".children,' ' Her energy in working with PTA projects, is boundless, so say the members who have 'worked with her through the years, and they say too, not one, "remember," but many, that Florence Ollmann never) forgets the family of any child when trouble comes . . . her kindly deeds are legion, unsung, except by those who know her. , f -.. .
