Pictures of the Past #97

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/

May 18, 1954 Southeast Missourian. Members of the Kiwanis Club decided to call attention of one of its members, recently-elected Mayor Narvol A. Randol, at right, to problems of his office by presenting him with a new disposal pail laden with "greenbacks." The "greenbacks" were of the stage variety which members "contributed" as the pail was passed among those attending last week's meeting. The presentation was made by Carlton Lorberg.

Published Dec. 28, 1963: Mrs. Sam Trainum demonstrates how she probably will serve her birthday dinner.

Sometimes she has gone out for dinner, she says, but not when she has had a small baby. Julie, born Nov. 1, is her fourth child.
