Sorry about that I thought the Great Bend was in Kansas

Hi, This screen name is usually my wifes but she has just gotten out of the hospital and I am doing her mail. There is quite a distance between Great Bend and Halstad. I don't think they were ever the same town.

My mother, Lois Weir, lived with her father and mother in Susquehanna in 1920-30's. Father Charles, mother Rachel. Is there a possibility your family may have know the Weir's ? (he worked on the RR) jwa

I'd have to look at my old school books (a looong time ago) but I remeber that Skinner is responsible for "conditioned response" and he used some box to hold animals while he was "conditioning" (training) them to respond to a certain stimulus (kind of like Pavlov's dog - bell/salivate). It doesn't seem all that impressive now, but at that time 30's-40's it apparently was cutting edge psychology. I hope I got this right. regards jwa

my grandfather, Charles Weir, work at the RR shops in Susquehanna, around 1925-35. jim weir ashkar

Does anyone know when or if the name of the town Great Bend is same town as Halstead. I thought my great Aunt had told me it changed. I wonder if that is true and when the change was made. Trish at glen8626@aol.com
