The "Treutlen Scrapbook" photo was a 1938 dance at the Community House. Suits for the gentlemen; floor-length gowns for the ladies. The wooden walls looked very light before the varnish grew dark. The juke box in the photo was not a rarity, as it was one of the products distributed by Sparks Specialty Company of Soperton. Clayton Stephens considered Mr. and Mrs. Sparks as the county's foremost philanthropists. What they gave was out of their own pockets; it didn't come from tax revenues - local, state, or federal. The Sparks building had its office in the building occupied in 2011 by Southern Belles Florist.
