This photo of the wagon lot on a Saturday afternoon in 1930s Arkadelphia (Clark County) shows interesting contrasts between the old and the new. Wagons and mule teams interspersed with cars and an Adams Motor Grader clearly indicate the changes coming to the county seat, which had been incorporated in 1857. From 1930 to 1950, the population of the town more than doubled.
