Local ground was not neglected by the members, and many photographs of Medford's historical points were made and used for illustrations and lantern slides. Every year the club furnished a set of slides for the New England Lantern Slide Exchange, and for a number of years sent a set of photographs to its various clubs. Two sets of slides furnished by the club made it famous. Paul Revere and his Midnight Ride was given its initial showing in the Medford town hall to an audience that taxed its capacity. By special request it was also given in the high school before the students. It was also given before the Massachusetts Charitable Mechanics Association and many other societies. Another set was the New England Poets, which was a credit to the members in their individual work and to the club itself. Mr. J. Henry Norcross was elected the first honorary member (May 3,

It was like living again those days of camera activities in which I had an active part during the many years of its successes. It was the leader in all of the clubs in New England for years.
