1 »BY SB D T»i jb! Tftc Machine Shop There has been considerable activity in the woodworking depart- ment this term and three boys have been busy with the metal lathes. An attempt has been made to teach a junior form to nse a few tools correctly and to perform simple operations rather than rely on machines. A simple project, accurately made and carefully finished throughout by a boy, is preferable to a more ambitious undertaking in which most of the work is done by some machine. In the early part of the term there was a good deal of work in connection with the forts, doors and windows, etc., being built. The Photography Club During the term the membership of the club has dropped because several of last year ' s members disliked the new rule that they would be required to work or resign. However, there is still plenty of enthusiasm and keenness among the present active members, headed by our able president, T. H. Gowman. In the course of the summer the lens of the enlarger disappeared. Naturally we missed this very much as enlarging was one of the most popular sides of the club ' s activities. We have, however, located another lens which, we hope, will arrive in the very near future. Unfortunately, this term we do not have the keen support of Mr. Dixon, who helped us a great deal last year. We miss him and hope that before long we shall have the assistance of another master. The Printing Club There has not been much activity but Burrows is shamed into spasmodic activity to keep his hand in. The Taxidermy Club We hope to restart this club as there are some boys, notably Hagar, who have an infectious enthusiasm. Page 1% SHAWNIGAN LAKE

rinr rnpc. ANNUAL INSPECTION, 1945 The annual inspection of the Cadet Corps was held on April 30th. This year the inspecting officer was Col. K. M. Holloway, the Director of Army Cadets. This was the first time that we had been inspected by an Officer of this importance and the Corps made every effort to attain efficiency. Following a march past by two platoons and a band of nine instruments, demonstrations of training carried out during the year were given, followed by a Physical Training display. As a result of the inspection the Corps was ranked Excel- lent in the Annual Report.
