THE HAMILTON ASSOCIATION 97 
ANNUAL REPORT OF THE CAMERA SECTION. 
Hamilton, Ont., May 8, 1905. 
The Camera Section has experienced a comparatively quiet year, 
probably due, for the most part, to the older members not taking 
a very active part in the work, but leaving the year’s work to be 
carried on by the younger members of the Section. The younger 
members put forth their best efforts to do all possible for the suc- 
cess of the Section and have done very well, the work exhibited at 
the annual print exhibition being of a high artistic merit, though 
the number of exhibitors and number of prints on exhibition were 
considerably less than former years. We are glad to note, how- 
ever, that the older as well as the younger members are now 
awake to the fact that if the Section is to make progress in the 
Photographie art, the members must all work together, and al- 
ready many of those who, during the past year did not take any 
active part in the affairs of the Section, have put their shoulders 
to the wheel, and the present indications are that the year before 
us is going to be the best yet. 
The Section decided to again enter the American Lantern 
Slide Interchange for the year 1904-5, and last fall about 100 
slides were sent to New York, from which the judges chose the 
set for the Interchange circuit. 
During the season many lantern slide exhibitions were given 
and much enjoyed by the members and their friends. 
We did not have any photographie demonstrations or papers 
during the year, as in former years, and it is to be hoped. that the 
programme committee for the coming year will try and arrange 
for as many papers and demonstrations of an interesting and 
instructive nature as is possible.
