GIFT FOR CAMERA CLUB PICTURE GALLERY
April 1919

Through the generosity of Reverend J. E. Johnson '66, for many years the benefactor of undergraduate enterprises, the Dartmouth Camera Club recently received a gift of a $1000 bond, the income of which will provide sufficient funds to rent a room in Robinson Hall. The room will be used as a picture gallery and will open into the Outing Club rooms, the Camera Club retaining their rooms in the basement of Robinson for the purposes of laboratory and experimental work.

The gift is the outcome of the photography contest conducted for the last two years by the Outing Club in connection with the Camera Club. The prize-winning pictures in these and future contests will be hung in the new gallery, and will become the permanent property of Dartmouth College. In addition to the bond, Mr. Johnson gave the club a sum to enable it to proceed immediately with furnishing the room.
