upon the rudder at Fairview school is feminine and firm.
- ... 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,

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

Everyone pitched in and helped
move when Fairview school's fine
new addition was completed down
to tne last small nail, last week
Students and teachers wore "old
clothes" and helped carry - books',
pencils, and erasers to the six
extra rooms to be used by the two
first, two second and- two third
grades that deserted the old build
ing lor the new wing.
Grades one to seven are taught
at Fairview and the enrollment out
grew the original building of nine
rooms, several years ago.
For three years students have
been fed in the hallway because
the cafeteria was needed for class
room space. The auditorium has
been used as a classroom and the
library for a first aid center-
Luncheon hours have been stagger
ed to relieve congestion. There was
no indoor play space for rainy day
games. Cloakrooms overflowed and
there was no room for school .as
semblies. ' ' -1
The original building will house
class rooms,- play space, cafeter
ia, library, medical room ana ad
ministrative offices.
Outside construction of the, addi
tion Is new. to this community.
Four-inch outside, walls are of
brick.' five-inch hollow tile forms
the Inside wall and the two-inch
space between is packed with glass
fibre. This type of construction cuts'
down luel 0U1 costs.
Accoustic tile has been used for
ceilings and upper side walls, in the
rooms; work boards are green witn
aluminum trim, also a new feature
in school buildings and wash kasin
faucets turn off automatically. A
push" produces enough water to
wash the dirtiest nanas, .
Toilet rooms of tile, have bowls
and petitions above floor level to
provide easier cleaning. ;
The petition at the rear of each
class room, that provides for coats,
caps and winter footgear, also pro
vides on the "room stae, extra
room for hanging art work.
Woodwork Is all light and fin
ished "natural." Each classroom
has been "oriented" as to color,
darker on the South, lighter shades
on North and "East.
Ttins have been provided tor Dais
nnd balls when playtime is over.
The new rooms have drinking foun
tains. ' ; ,
The kitchen would be a Jov in
any housewife's life. The big stove
is set in the center of the room to
permit working from all aides. The
serving counter r-s an ujuow
.heir tn save stooping ana tne irai-
f ic problem has been worked out to
prevent the slightest delay In serv
ing. All metal is stainless steel.
Mrs. Refugio Thornton Is head
cook. Mrs. Merllne Kurth Is assis
tant-
Children pass rapidly in front of
the serving crew, eat and return
dishes through a window to older
students, who spray, scrape and
wash and scald.
