[Centennial Food Show and Household Exposition at the Penn-Reynolds-Jones, Post 840 American Legion, at 629 Lakey Street]

Group of unidentified individuals, a few holding cakes, stand behind a table with a variety of baked goods on it at the Denton centennial celebration. Based upon certain elements in the photograph and an article that appeared in the Denton Record-Chronicle, we believe that this photo was taken on either April 10 or 11, 1957. According to the article, "A pre-Centennial food show and household exposition was held at the Penn-Reynolds-Jones, Post 840, American Legion, 629 Lakey Street... The food demonstrations will be directed by Mrs. Hazel Washington of the Carver Kitchen. The general theme of the program depicts 100 years of Negro progress in foods and better homemaking. A quest contest will be conducted. Prizes will be awarded by Noble Holland, Legion post commander." "Amicable Ammons Belles attended. Mrs. Ruby J. Knight and the Belles entered the cake baking contest and won second place. Mrs. Rufus Ebron, mother of Miss Imogene Ebron, was awarded first prize." We do know that Noble Holland is pictured, second from the left. Mrs. Ruby J. Knight is first from the right. And the two prize winners, Mrs. Rufus Ebron and her daughter, Imogene, are also pictured.
