Since its organization it has steadily grown and now takes its place as one of the major organizations of the school. Our up-to-clate equipment and splen- .lid facilities for photo- graphic work offer a splendid h o b b y and recreation for its mem- bers. XYith the open- ing of a studio, a new branch of photography is open to those interested in portrait studies. Through the untiring efforts of Mr. Farmer, the club has successfully g r 0 w n, and with his help our members have learned to produce work of the highest quality. -Om' .tfL'fT'Z-'1'lil'E5- A club meeting is held every s e c o n d weelz.

On the afternoon of November 1Tth, the Camera Club held a tea-dance in the school auditorium. Good music and a boys' quar- tette were successful in providing a program that was enjoyed by the large crowd that turned Out. On December 16th the club presented a small m o v i e show, featuring the L 0 st 'XVorld. A Mickey Mouse comedy, a Trav- el film from the Do- minion Government library, and the school films were the other attractions. Our Annual Movie Show was held in Feb- CAMERA CLUB EXECUTIVE Don.

Ball. Mr. Home. Mr. Maston. outlines of a school take fomi, and are we proud? A real school, at last. The late Mr. ti. H. Reed had started the school with four pup- ils. Inside of a year, the late Mr. Nelson was engaged and by the beginning of the next year the third teacher was added to the stahf. By this time there were three regular forms and complete High School work, including Senior Matriculation work, was taught. It was a time of trial, hardship and struggle in many ways, but there were many compensa- tions. Pupils who obtained their Senior Matriculation under these conditions were certainly teacher's pets. It was confusing, annoying, but sometimes amusing to be com- pelled to stop while the teacher on the other side of the low partition declared fa+bl2I after your ble ne sais pas. Many were the tangles straightened out by the pat on the back and the words of encouragement of Mr. ' GROCERY STORE Eglinton and Yonge St. Reed. Chielly due to him we have our present school motto, Labor Omnia Yincitf' He talked it, he preached it, he lived it. When the school had become well estab- lished in the section, which is the front only, of our present school, the war gave us another chance to show that we had become a real school. There is no need to mention the boys whose names are written on our tablet. The girls then, as they have ever since in other spheres, also took up their duties in war work. So time has moved along quickly and to-day we have many men and women holding re- sponsible positions in our city and country who attended the school in the old Town Hall. Labor Unmia Yincitf' It still stands. Be ours to hold it high. XYe seem to be saying or acting, VVe can. 10355 was a banner year for N. T. C. I. and can it be otherwise?
