Riding the School Bus During the 1920's

A special thanks to Calvin Ritter of Monroe County for sharing this photograph of Itawamba County students posing in front of a school bus in the Carolina community. During the olden days, school buses were privately owned, and the school bus owners contracted their services with the various school districts. Pictured above are (left to right): Murrah Boozer, Virginia Green, Norene ___, Evelyn Wiygul and Irma Patterson. To view a larger resolution image, click on the photograph.
