Newspaper Page TextPACE TWELVE HERALD AND NEWS, KLAMATH FALLS, ORECON SATURDAY, APRIL 10, 1948 v awm xw iiv w iii, i Ik. , Traffic was a bit thicker than usual in front of the old Lakeside Inn on lower Main street when this Photographic History shot was made in about 1910. Unfortunately, there is no notation to tell just what occasion brought out these buckboards loaded with early day residents, but it looks as if they might be setting out all together for somewhere a chamber of commerce tour to Merrill, a picnic, or some other civic occasion. Those were the days when personal and family prestige was definitely influenced by the spirit and matching of light teams, such as these, which pulled Klamath residents about the town streets and over country roads. Old-timers with on eye for horses could tell us how these would rate. The picture is from the Baldwin collection and is another of a Saturday series that is winning much interest among newcomers as well as pioneers. 14 Nazis To Hang For War Crimes NUERNBERG, Germany.
