"No, you won't break the camera"

The caption for this photo says, "No, you won't break the camera." How could these lovely girls worry about that?


The names listed for this photo are Ada Marcia (later Ada Marcia Hoebel Porter), Melba (not sure if she's the second or third from the left), and Helen (my mother, on the right).

Mom remembers sewing her outfit in her Home Economics class. She used black corduroy to make the hat, scarf, and skirt. She recalls that the top she's wearing was knit or crocheted by her Grandmother Mitchell. By the way, Mom got an A in the Home Ec class!
