I love this picture! It is part of the Dale VanPatten collection of pictures and historic documents. I like the old house in the background, the kids looking so well-behaved, and the teacher standing beside the group.
The old style-thing shows up again. Girl's hair style was short-hair-with-bangs straight across the forehead. The 8th girl on back row (left to right) reminds me of me because she is taller than most kids, has serious scared look, and would never be a trouble maker! Boys mostly had overalls. Some had bare feet.
Also look at girls 6 and 9, back row. They have faces that appear deformed but is probably falling leaves coming down just as the picture was snapped. Also, the little boy on the front right must have moved just as the picture was snapped.
I hope you enjoy this picture as much as I have.
