I was hoping someone may be able to help with any ideas about what the girls are doing and why they are holding empty plates. I was thinking possibly some type of "maid school" but the girls seem too young for that.

Uniforms.
Well disciplined.
The way they stand, they do not look like a troupe of dancers.
The Milford Historical Society might know?

Thanks vetraio50 I didn't even think of contacting them.
maybe a oschool
oooops school
That's what I was thinking but I was thrown off by the different uniforms and because they're holding plates.
Thanks for the love everyone
And thanks PaperHoarder
Thanks everyone
That is just so odd. I love it and will probably be pondering it all day :))
Thanks AmberRose. I like photos like this that make you think
I never thought of that. It's possible that it could be from a theatrical performance.
I'd think maids (possibly at a hotel) or maids in training-- remember, unlike today it was not unusual to find children working.
Either way, I would call it an occupational image.

Thanks Scott
Maybe a girl's boarding school, home ec training?
Thanks Manikin
Your welcome . Great photo ! Girls finishing school perhaps learning to be proper hostess's or maids . Interesting
