Where We Learn to Be Wise at Pine Island, Minnesota, ca. 1910
"Where we learn to be wise at Pine Island. Our public schools."
This real photo postcard features a pre-digital photomontage of oversized owls perched on the roof of the public high school in Pine Island, Minnesota, circa 1910.
"A Wise Old Owl," a nursery rhyme dating to 1875 or earlier, seems an appropriate match to this whimsical photo:
A wise old owl lived in an oak
The more he saw the less he spoke
The less he spoke the more he heard.
Why can't we all be like that wise old bird?
A photo for the Vintage Photos Theme Park with the assignment to find a poem to match your photo.
