Belmont Annex CNo. 25 BY SIIEPARD GIQILENRIERG, IQI3. FTER the Bedford Annex had been opened in 1906 because of the extreme congestion suffered at the Main Building, the number of students still continued to increase. Con- sequently another annex had to be formedhin a very short time. This branch was established in February, 1909, and was assigned quarters at Belmont and Berriman Avenues. Because of delays on the part of the city contractors, it was not Hnished on schedule time. Mr. E. B. Parsons, who had been placed in charge of this new division of about four hundred embryo students, was enabled to pursue the regular course of work in temporary quarters on the top floor of the new building of Public School No. 75, which is located on the corner of Grove and Evergreen Avenues. However, we all hope that the regular quarters will be finished and ready to be occupied for the coming fall term. The regular Belmont Annex quarters are reported as equipped with all modern improvements-a spacious gymnasium, shower baths and outdoor courts. Although the Annex is but four months old, yet the fellows have already formed organizations and societies. The faculty likewise have joined enthusiastically in the work. Mr. Fisher has arranged a declamatory contest to better enable the students to develop their dormant oratorical abilities. Mr. Bridgetts, who has charge of athletics, has also worked hard to keep up interest in the school. A series of inter-class games was arranged and the fellows of Room 407 proved themselves to be the champions of the Annex. Auditorium exercises have been held regularly in the elaborately decorated assembly room of the building, where many prominent men have addressed the School during the term. 17
