PHOTO'S FROM THE 1930'S

6
These pictures were sent to me from Norma Hutchraft Williams.
She sent copied photo's on regular paper, then I scanned them on my computer.
Therefore the quality isn't too great.
But they are such neat pictures.
Thanks Norma!

The above photo is of Ed Helms - 1932
Ed was Lucy Hutchraft's Father
Ed ran a Sinclair filling station on the corner between Brown's Store and the old Methodist Church. He and Jon Bach an Watt Houser hung out together and, according to Bill Hutchdract, judged everything that went on in town. He wrote the Paradise News items for the Paradise Farmer. He taught himself to read and was a carpernter among other thing.
(We will be having a lot of things on the blog from the Paradise Farmer in the future.)

3Paradise Football Team - around 1931.
Luther and Ed Hutchcraft are in the photo.
This is possibly a posed picture.

Notice in the background is the back of the High School and the old Methodist Church is on the left.
