Children singing in the Theosophical Institute Choir in Point Loma, ca.1902

Photograph of children singing in the Theosophical Institute Choir in Point Loma, ca.1902. Children standing according to height in three rows of about a dozen across are visible at center. Seven girls can be seen wearing similar dresses with dark stockings and sandals, while the youngest girl is visible at left wearing a white dress. The rest of the group is composed of two dozen boys wearing long-sleeved dark shirts with high necks and stockings with sandals. While the children are singing, they are looking down at books or staring at a man at right holding a conductor's wand up in his right hand. The man has a beard and is wearing a jacket, pants, and boots with half chaps. A curtain is visible behind the children.
