This photo was suggested to us by Laura of the Foundation for the National Archives. She thought it had a very Tennessee Williams feel to it.
But it’s not a set—as our winner suspected, it’s a mobile library with a slightly poignant story: “Charlestown, Indiana. Education, Library Services. The Public Library in Charlestown, Indiana was constructed out of work shanties by Works Progress Administration (WPA) workers in the early days of the Charlestown boom and is staffed by Works Progress Administration librarians. It has between three thousand and four thousand books and there is a demand for more technical texts on chemistry, steam fitting, mechanical drawing, mathematics and carpentry. The library is well partonized by the newcomers and townsfolk alike; the demand for fiction is less than was expected. Indiana University has announced extension courses for Charlestown this Fall in business, education, American and Latin-American history, English, elementary Spanish, mathematics, and psychology.” (ARC Identifier 518271)
There are no books in this week’s image, but there is definitely a story behind the pair in this photo! Tell us what it is in the caption below…
“I’m just saying, I think I saw a shark, but it could have been something else.”
Off to another hard day of training my human….I hope he get the mackrel toss right by afternoon….
Sure, he missed Bella, but Edward thought this relationship was much more healthy.
“Sorry pal, but only one of you gets to be THE Easter Seal.”
Seaman Pinniped begins his first week of BUDS training
” SO YOU SAY YOU WANT TO TRAIN TO BE A NAVY SEAL . . . “
“Don’t feel so bad, pal. Take it from me: there’s always more fish in the sea.”
This draft is getting out of hand.
Work! Work! Work! And all I ever get paid is fish! Who can support a family on fish?
“I’m just saying, when I heard Navy Seal this isn’t what I thought of!”
Petty Officer Johnson leads Joanie, the most recent recruit to the Navy’s top secret program: Operation Coastal Seal, an effort to secure US ports against Soviet infiltration.
Before the development of sonar, searching for German U-Boats was decidedly low-tech.
I think they finally got the hang of off leash healing. Training these Navy SEALS is rough!
Stupid Dog! I said “Heel”
Fred got tired of that heel nipping dog and traded it in for a seal.
