This wonderful keepsake photograph captures the fifth grade class at Union Elementary School in Union (now Midvale), Utah in 1937.  It captures the styles of the times and the poverty that many people were still experiencing following the Great Depression if judging clothes is any indicator.  I love the crossing guard in the front row.
