Pictures of the Past #90

G.D. Fronabarger left the Missourian boxes and boxes of negatives. What he didn't leave were IDs for them. Pictures of the Past features some of Frony's images we've partially identified. We're hoping you can help fill in the blanks. Contact librarian Sharon Sanders at ssanders@semissourian.com, if you recognize a place or a face. Mystery Galleries may still be viewed on our History Page, http://www.semissourian.com/history/

Oct. 5, 1962 Southeast Missourian. A spider named Charlotte, a pig called Wilbur, and a little girl, Fern, have become interesting characters in the lives of Mrs. Millie Ragsdale’s fourth graders at Campus Elementary School.
