Bazaar at the convent in 1914 (ph_105)

At her table, Sister Euphémie Lavoie sells craft articles and pastries. Bigger boys lean over to examine the objects for sale, while the little girls wait their turn to enter the berceau where lemonade is sold for 5 cents a glass. Seated on the wooden benches under the trees, men and women relax and talk together. In the background, can be seen Côme Cyr’s house and barn. In the distance rises the steeple of the village church.
