Description
Photograph of a boy sitting on a horse in front of a house with stone walls and a thatched roof. A woman can be seen in the doorway of the house. "A horse is a necessity, not a luxury here. It is five days ride to the nearest railroad thru the jungle. That r.r. is a Toonerville wood burner. The horses and mules are needed to carry the chicle thru the forest to the point of shipment."
