Caption: INDIAN GIRLS AS PROFESSIONAL NURSES.

This picture represents former Carlisle pupils who, having received preliminary training in the School hospital, and having completed heir training in Philadelphia, New Haven and Hartford nurse schools, are now profitably employed in independent practice in the cities named. In this direction our Indian girls have been especially successful.

Caption: THE OLD WALNUT TREE.

One of the prominent objects on the school grounds is the old Walnut Tree, which stands close to the Teachers' Quarters and is a silent sentinel of peculiar interest and beauty.

Student photographer John Leslie is known to have taken many of the photographs in this pamphlet and the school newspaper specifically mentions photographs of the Old Walnut Tree by him being available for purchase.

NOTE: Although this image appears to have been labeled "George Conner" by the photographer, Conner family members do not believe this to be him. The person pictured here also does look distinctly different from the numerous other photos positively identified as George Conner.

Moving from left to right the buildings visible are: the Superintendent's Quarters, the Administration Building, the Guard House, the Academic Building, and the back of the Girls' Quarters.

This print is marked as being by photographer John H. Andrews. However, it is possible that the image was originally taken by student photographer John Leslie, who is credited with many of the images in the pamphlet, and perhaps was only printed by Andrews.

Caption: THE WORKSHOPS.

The old cavalry stables were remodeled as workshops, and serve the purpose well, being convenient, compact and roomy. Carlisle was the pioneer in Indian industrial education and has followed an original system of its own - producing the clothing, shoes, etc., necessary for the students, and manufacturing wagons, harness and tinware for the Government. In all the shops as little machinery as possible is used, in order that each pupil may learn his trade in a way that will make him most skillful with his hands.
