Public notice directs advertisements and correspondence to the Black heath Beacon Printing and Publishing Co at Cascade Street Katoom Maar.
The Warkheath Beacon argues that civic progress hinges on residents supporting local trade. Centralization drains rural life as people shop in cities, devaluing home property and hindering town growth. Patrons must bolster local merchants to keep money circulating locally and nurture prosperity.
Major reductions sweep ladies wear and millinery with discounts of half price on frocks, silks, underwear, gloves, hosiery, and silk socks. Menswear and household furnishings also heavily discounted, with vintage price cuts across suits, shirts, hats, and workwear. Hundreds of items reduced for a storewide sale event.
A call to inspect the Govett's Leap Road area urges pride in Blackheath as a top Blue Mountains resort. Reports cover a School of Arts meeting on February 6 chaired by Mr. Acland, with welcome remarks from Mr. Sutton and Mrs. Carney, and notes on the Parents and Citizens Association pushing for improved school efforts and ongoing talent initiatives.
Mr and Mrs Ledger and family express sincere thanks to all who aided in quelling the recent fire. Special gratitude is extended to the Blackheath Fire Brigade for their swift and skilled response.
