"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.
