Children to Study;
Collection of !
Specimens
The Late Miss M'Koon's
Collection Has Been
Given to School by
Henrietta Reese.
Children to Study.
Nature study is now considered a
most important branch of the
child's education. The late Miss
Jennie M. McKoon, who was the
first principal of Mason school, was
among the early educators in Oma
ha who sponsored the study of the
outdoors and its beauties. During
her period as principal Miss Mc
Koon collected a number of speci
mens of ore, rock, sea shells and
odd growths, many unique and very!
useful as a source of knowledge for
the children. This collection her
niece, Miss Henrietta Rees, has
presented to the school, as it was
Miss McKoon's wish that the pupils
should enjoy it.
The children will make a study of
these specimens in the fall and an
artistic cabinet has been made as a.
memorial for the late principal.
Branches of coral, shell of a horse
shoe crab, several sea dollars with
barnacles attached, specimens ,of
different kinds of ore, including
cuartz, pyrite, copper ore, silver ore,
obsidian or volcanic glass, old fossil
growths, sand from the painted
caves of the Mississippi river, sam
ples of tiger-eye from Duluth and
numerous other specimens of like
nature comprise the collection.
