School days, school days, good old fashioned school days…or so the song goes. The museum exhibits several artifacts from those good old days. They include: a pocket atlas (1914); several McGuffey’s Readers (circa 1890’s); a slate pencil; a circular slide rule; a slide rule for transposition of music (1905); an ink well and sand shaker (circa 1800); and a local school bell (1864).
