Stiles Depot 1909
This shows the Depot July 5 1909.  The lady with the umbrella is Mable McCurdie.  The trains didn't like to stop there going north because it was hard getting started up the hill.  Sometimes they would have to back up to the water tower a mile south, take on water and then get a run for the hill.

Here is another photo of Stiles looking west.  Lawn mowers that could make pies and give milk.  River and company barn to the left.  Flag is up on the pole.

Here is one taken by H.R. Luebke.  This is my one of my favorites.  It is looking south with the hall and school right.  Depot on the left.  No highway but it did have power lines.
