Wow how times have changed
It's a shame children smoked back then, a lot of things have changed. Boys as young as 7-8 worked as paper boys and factor labors to help support their families instead of going to school. Times were tough! As you'll see in other photos; it was common in the ealry 30's and 40's for young boys to work full time jobs.
These young boys are defiantly earning their wages.
I just love this photo!!!!
Pictures of the past paint a vivid picture.
