School portrait



All dressed up, but apparently not a smile among them.
If you look at this photo of these young people who attended a Telford school, you may agree.
This photo was submitted by Regina Alderfer of Harleysville, who also has supplied these names of those on the photo:
Front row, from left, Samuel Landis, Leanna H. Freed, Charles Keyser, Dorothy Shade, Mark Stauffer, Nina Burgess and Gordon Simmons.
Second row, from left, Wilmer E. Reed, William Moyer, Miles Fluck, Hilda F. Shelly, Marvin Freed and Abram Moyer.
Alderfer noted that Leanna Freed was her mother.
And with the girls outnumbered more than two to one, they probably didn’t complain about having too much female competition.
Alderfer didn’t know much else about the school, but you can note that this was the Class of 1926, from the banner they are holding.
