"Just a little drink at a God forsaken hot place in Arizona", 1925.
A group of hard working Park Service personnel partaking of a bit of refreshment on their way to the 1925 Superintendent's Conference. Elmer Reynolds (6th from left), while not associated with the government, gave invaluable assistance through the STOCKTON RECORD, which he owned, by publishing extensive accounts about the new park programs. While the regulations specified what was to be worn and that the coat was to be buttoned up whenever meeting the public, apparently, libertys were taken when traveling, as can be noted by the striped shirt and tie being worn by Carl Russell in the above photograph. Also note the buckskin lining of Burrell's breeches.

Left to right: Carl Parcher Russell, chief naturalist; Betty Russell; Bernice Lewis; Mrs Burrell; Mrs. Thomson; Elmer Reynolds; editor, Stockton Record Newspaper; Washington B. Lewis, superintendent, Yosemite; Mr. Mather's chauffeur; Bert H. Burrell, acting chief engineer; Mr. Hawkins; Charles Goff Thomson, superintendent, Crater Lake.
