Scope & content
Item consists of page 47 of the Boyd photograph album. There are nine photographs on the page, which are captioned as follows: 12738, 12739 - The call to arms, and the answer. The recruiting sign at the base of the South African monument, Toronto. The thousands of soldiers who have answered its call is the answer; 12741 - Dental Officers getting some winter ozone on the ice encrusted breakwater; 12742 - 75th Battalion coming in from a march - they are equipped with the Oliver Kit; 12743 - Cavalry doing mounted drill in the horse ring at the Exhibition Camp, Toronto; 12744 - Big gun exercises consist of as many phases as infantry evolutions; 12745 - The big portable reading and recreation quarters provided by the Salvation Army; 12746, 12747 - Trench digging in the hard clay near the Old Fort, Toronto, is not easy work at any time, but when zero weather hardens it harder, it's no cinch for soft Tommies.
