Scope and content
On February 15, 1940, as the culmination of their study of transportation, students from a kindergarten class at Annie Wright Seminary made a tour of the Northern Pacific train station at 1717 Pacific Avenue and purchased tickets for a train ride to Sumner. Turning away from the window with her ticket firmly in hand was Nancy Mackle. Patricia Pinches stood on a box to buy her ticket from NP agent George H. Miller. Other students in line, listed right to left, were Mary Thies, Janet Schimke, Marilyn Olson and Carol Johnson. (T. Times 2/16/1940 p.7)
