A glance at the past

The Fourth of July celebration is just days away.

We are not using one of the many photos of previous Fourth celebrations. Instead we are asking for help!

When was this picture taken? Who are the students in the photo? Who is the teacher pictured in the upper right? Our guess is the late 1930s or early ‘40s. The students are at least 6th-graders. 

This school photo was provided by Marion Dennis. She is a native of Kingston.

The students are costumed as if participating in a pageant, possibly a Thanksgiving celebration.

Please give your information to one of the Historical Society members or mail it to The Kingston Historical Society, PO Box 333, Kingston, WA 98346.

Better yet, come to our meeting at 10 a.m. July 23 in the Kingston Community Center.
