WOLF CREEK HERITAGE MUSEUM NOTES by Virginia Scott MUSEUM HAPPENINGS An interesting week with the eclipse starting our week, I hope everyone saw this event. The museum staff is trying to check up with our accessioning and straightening of the archive room. Kellie is making a lot of progress inputting our collection into the computer. This gives us a system with backups in case of disasters i.e. fire, tornados, etc. We are planning our annual fundraiser and the program is progressing well. Our program speaker will be Tracy Tyson who will present a program about the turtle migration in the Galveston/Houston area. Mark your calendars for Saturday, Nov. 4 and bring us auction items for our live and silent events. This is the last two weeks for our Barbie Exhibit so if you haven't brought some girls to see it, please do so before its gone. Our next exhibit will be the work of Robert Mercer. REMINDER: BINGO NIGHT IS SATURDAY, AUGUST 26, AT 6:30 PM AT THE MUSEUM MEETING ROOM. HISTORICAL MUSINGS In recognition of this year being the 100th anniversary of World War I, I will periodically print of our history from that war. Here is a portion of a letter published in the Limelight on August 30, 1917 from Lloyd and Hank Bussard:
