Dana Hall School For Girls 17
It looks like some of the students at Dana Hall went for an outing. But who owned the car? And does this album page have a photo of one of the young ladies changing clothes in public? As usual, click on Dana Hall School for more.

The owner of this album must have been athletically inclined. We've seen field hockey, marching, basketball courts, and now "Gym at Dana." Click on Dana Hall School in labels to see more, including the field hockey team.

Dana Hall School For Girls 14
The only photo on this page that's labeled is the one at the top of the column, "At Dana Hall Our Crowd & Home." Note Helen Zollinger, top row of the top picture, second from the right.
And, of course, click on Dana Hall School for more, more, more....

Dana Hall School For Girls 13
Unless someone writes in their photo album that these photos belong to me and sign their name, there is always a question of who put the thing together. I'd guess it's probable that the owner has put some pictures of herself in this collection of life at Dana Hall School, and the most likely culprit has to be one of the three theatrical subjects. One might stress friends and faculty from the ordinary days at school, but the theatrical portraits are special and say, "Look, that was me."
The very first post from this collection was a loose photo, not pasted on to any of the pages, and the young lady was identified as Helen Zollinger. But whether Helen was a classmate of the album's owner or that identification was written by Helen's grandchild years latter, well, who knows. In any case, none of the three women in costumes look like Helen.
The couple are ID'd as Henry Doran and Helen Moock. They've showed up before this, and they look just young enough that they might be friends, and just old enough to be junior faculty. And speaking of labels, once again click on Dana Hall School to see more.

Dana Hall School For Girls 12
This album pages seems to be all about student activities. The top photo, a wide picture that takes up the top of the album page, is the school play. Since Dana Hall was a girls school, I'd assume all the actors are female students. And then, picture number two and four has the students marching and doing calisthenics on the outdoor basketball court. Gym class, or are they warming up for a game?
Once again, click on Dana Hall School in the labels section at the bottom of the post to see more album pages and to get more information.

Dana Hall School For Girls 10
Unlike most of the album pages I post, this one is too large to show the whole page for position. The top photo takes up the entire width of the page, the next three, left to right, easily fit in a second row beneath the girls on parade photo.
So, one of the tings that I find interesting about a lot of these photos is the students at Dana Hall all look so mature. These are high schoolers, but they all look much older. To go back to the beginning of the collection and see more, click on Dana Hall School in labels at the bottom of thr post.

Dana Hall School For Girls 9
Alright, two rows of photos, sort of. The two verticals and then the two horizontals stacked to complete the row.
The thing that really fascinates me is that the photos from Dana Hall School all look like they were taken out in the middle of the country, but even in 1914, Wellesley, Massachusetts would have been part of the Boston metro area.
Click on Dana Hall School in labels to see more. I figure there's 19 posts from this collection. I've hit nine, so I'll be leaving it for a few weeks and when I return, I'll do the last ten in a row.
