Dozens of children from Hull-House watching a man on a horse at Hawthorn-Mellody Farms

 

Dozens of children from Hull-House lined up on the edge of a field looking at a man dressed as a cowboy, on a horse, at Hawthorn-Mellody Farms, a dairy farm, amusement park, and petting zoo in Lake County, Ill. Behind them are two Willett Motor Coach Company chartered buses. Most of the children are wearing identical sombrero-style hats. A few adults are among the crowd.
