Mother Goose & Company

Submitted by Ray Evans

This was published in the August 13, 1998 issue of the Mt Vernon Signal. Mrs. Maryland Painter Meyer, of Houston, Texas, originally of Brodhead, recently sent me a copy of the cast from a Brodhead Grade School play that was put on about 1938. Maryland indicates that she was in the fifth grade at that time. She had found this item in one of her deceased sister’s belongings. Perhaps some of you will recognize yourself or your parents that were in this play. It is sad that many of the children that were in this play have passed on.
