    It amazes me how you are able to locate these historical photos from so far back in the past…

    peace, Villager

    Im sorry but this photo is creeping me out. They all look like there in a trance. And the one girl to the bottom left is not even looking at the camera.

    Villager — it’s one of my favorite parts of blogging. There is so much visual documentation of our long history as teachers and learners, and I love poking around and digging up these images.

    Clnmike — maybe they just finished taking their exams. Seriously, though, I think that it has something to do with how long they had to sit still in order to get a clear image using the existing technology.
