It's a what we now call a rehab center. Not sure how many of the kids in the photo are patients. Some may be former patients or volunteers for the band. Those are girls and there are at least 5 sets of crutches that I can count.

Interesting. 100 years ago life was hard. The good old days weren't all that good.

To me, not having air conditioning and central heating and effective refrigerators must have been significant factors; also, drugs like penicillin would have been a big lacking.

To me, a lack of toothbrushes along with a lack of toilet tissue, would have been real negative factors concerning "the good old days." LOL

not having air conditioning

I did not have air conditioning until I had my own apartment during grad school in the 80's. Somehow people survived w/o it and now can't. This past summer we left ours off as much as possible, sat out on the deck and enjoyed the peaceful quiet days as much as possible.

To me, a lack of toothbrushes along with a lack of toilet tissue, would have been real negative factors concerning "the good old days."

Personal hygiene - what a concept. BTW, the toothbrush goes back a couple of hundred years - not a 20th century creation.
