After doing a bit of digital housecleaning, I’ve added a few odds and ends to previous posts.
The top photo by Squire Haskins, from the Squire Haskins Collection, UTA, has been added to the post “‘The Times Herald Stands For Dallas As a Whole.'”

This very early photo of the Junius Heights gate has been added to my recent post “The Gateway to Junius Heights.” (This photo was taken in the Lakewood restaurant The Heights, unfortunately with lights reflecting off the picture — stop by The Heights to see a better image!) (Original source unknown.)

This ad for the Gospel Lighthouse Church appeared — surprisingly — in the 1967 Carter High School yearbook, and it has been added to the perennially popular post with my favorite unwieldy title: “The Lighthouse Church That Warned of Sin’s Penalty with a Beam of Blue Mercury Vapor Shot Into the Skies Above Oak Cliff — 1941.”
*
This dashing photograph of Angus Wynne, Jr. has been added to “Angus Wynne, Jr.’s ‘Texas Disneyland’ — 1961.”
*
Another dashing portrait — this one of Preston Hollow, etc. developer Ira P. DeLoache — has been added to “Preston Elms: Your Country Estate Awaits — 1935.” (The DeLoache and Wynne photos from the Fall, 2002 issue of Legacies.)
*
And these two photos are from yearbooks of the Terrill School (first one from 1915, second one from 1928) and have been added to the post “George Cacas, The Terrill School’s Greek Ice Cream Man — 1916.”

These additional photos really add to your original posts! This is the first photo I’ve ever seen of the original location of the Junius Heights Gate and that photo of the Times Herald Building brings back many memories. I threw the Times Herald paper route on my Miller Avenue childhood home street for three years. Throwing the paper on the street were you lived meant every customer had to be treated like they were your next door neighbor. Good times for sure. Thanks for posting these photos Paula.

The Times Herald photo brought back memories for me also. First, we felt the Herald was the only paper that should be read and were sick when we didn’t have it anymore! Second, I worked for the Herald as a “hotshot” during the summer of 1957 while in high school. A hotshot was sent out with the advertising copy to the stores/companies and stood while the marketing person thoroughly checked the ad for errors and added what they wanted to appear in their ads then we ran all the way back to the Herald with it. This happened every day for the first 4 to 6 hours and our legs & feet really got a workout as it was done at a running pace! The farthest regular run was from the Herald to Haverty’s Furniture in Deep Ellum and back.

This is such a great memory, Ann. I’ve never heard of this — like copy boys, but running (literally) around the streets of Dallas. And in the summer! Thanks for commenting!
