Loemker, Herman J., 1868-1937

Walking in pairs, a long line of students may be seen walking along one side of 12th Street. The boys are dressed in white short pants, long white socks and dark sashes, while the girls are dressed in white dresses, white stockings and dark vests. A group of boys at the front of the line are carrying American flags. A female teacher, dressed in a light colored dress and hat is walking near the front of the line. A man may be seen in the street directing traffic. The number 1348 is written on a label that has been stuck to the lower left corner of the slide.
