These pictures somehow didn't print in the blogs on Nov. 5 and Nov. 30. These added a lot to the two blogs, which were titled "Ruth Meredith's World as a Teenager" and "Just Three Months from Graduation." On the right Ruth is 14 in the first picture, posed with a girlfriend. This was taken in 1920. It looks like a backyard in the Austin neighborhood.
The second one is Ruth's graduation picture, taken in March, 1926 when she was 19. It appeared in the Maroon and White, the Austin High School yearbook. I commented on her Marceled hair style, which was very popular. Her blonde hair was normally straight. Just 10 days after graduation on June 25, Ruth turned 20. You can't tell from the photo, but her eyes were hazel.
