Dozens of children from Hull-House watching a man next to a horse bowing down at Hawthorn-Mellody Farms

 

Dozens of children from Hull-House lined up at the edge of a field watching a man dressed as a cowboy standing next to a horse that is bowing down 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 waving sombrero-like hats. Some adults are in the crowd.
