Some things never change, like Eatonville’s love of a good Fourth of July parade. These shots were taken on Mashell Ave., around 1924 in front of the Red and White Store.

I like the advertisement of Tobys Comedians staring Toby Stutters. It also included a 5 piece orchestra. Quite an act.

On an ominous note, this particular picture was taken just weeks before an enormous fire would sweep through and almost take out the town.
