Click the image for a larger image then click your mouse on that second image to enlarge it.
A group of boys are congregating outside of the Elm Bowling and Pool at 32 Elm Street in new Bedford
on a cold January Day in 1912.
In this picture you can notice that the smaller boys are wearing knee socks and the
older boys are wearing pants.
That was a sign of coming of age
The sign is made within the outline of an elm leaf .
