February 17, 1942 In operation for a little more than a year at this point, the Mosely Clinic can be seen in the background of this image taken during the 1942 Mardi Gras parade β most cities cancelled their celebrations due to the attack on Pearl Harbor and the U.S. subsequently entering World War II about 2 months prior. The sleek, Art Deco styled lettering on top of the entrance spells out "Dr. J. M. Mosely Clinic". Below, a mule-drawn wagon showcases those supported by the Lions Club. In 1951, Dr. Durel will be appointed President of the New Roads Lions' Club. Source: Costello, Brian J. "Carnival in New Roads." Louisiana Life, 30 December 2019.

1953, The Sisters of St. Joseph Hospital, Colorized, Huge crowds such as this in 1953 which packed E. Main from Pennsylvania Ave. to New Roads St. resulted in lengthening of parade route twice in subsequent years
February 27, 1968 In this photograph, twenty-seven Sisters are seen gathered on the hospital's roof, observing the 1968 Mardi Gras parade and partaking in the festivities. The camera operator on top of the hospital is using what resembles a Mitchell NC 35mm motion picture camera. Below, Miss Lucille Hebert (later Mrs. Larry McCaskill), who was crowned the 1967 New Roads Lions Carnival Queen, leads the 1968 parade as grand marshal. She is escorted on a Chevrolet Corvette Stingray. The signage "Sisters of St. Joseph Hospital" is partially visible on the right side of the photo.

Here are a few historical photos of Mardi Gras celebrations on Main Street, where you can spot the Mosley Clinic and the Sisters of St. Joseph Hospital in the background. These glimpses into the past remind us of the rich culture, history, and community spirit that make Mardi Gras here so special.
