No Class of 1918

Would you believe nobody from Ainsworth graduated with the Hobart High School Class of 1918?

But there were a few Ainsworth underclasspersons in that school, so I'm going to post their pictures.

Here we have Willard Dorman, son of John and Ella Dorman whose farm is now the Indian Ridge Golf Course. Wilma Cullman was a Deep River girl; we've already taken notice of her triumph over disaster.




Here we have Edward Wollenberg, the second son of William and Adelphine Wollenberg, owners of the Ainsworth saloon. I don't know if Eddie will prove to be as talented as his older brother; thus far his only public performance has been on a church basketball team.




Grace Nelson, the younger daughter of Lovisa Chester Nelson, had just recently become an aunt.

Alice Paine was living on the old Bullock homestead with her parents, Albion and Ethel. She looks rather severe, doesn't she?
