Notes
This and several other pix by Martel c. 1904 from a book of photos by Wm. Martel & Sons, Photographers, Brandon, printed by Warner's Book Store, Brandon. Have seen this book inscribed Feb. 1905. As no publishers or copyright date printed in it we know pix taken 1904 or earlier. L.A.S.
Stuckey's notes: During World War II dances were held nightly on the second floor, well patronized by the boys from RCAF No. 10 Service Flying Training School (SFTS) Dauphin and RCAF No. 7 Bombing & Gunnery School (B&G) Paulson. While on course at No. 7 B&G I attended often - great times!
