Local Notes From Boyup Brook Streets and Guests

Mr. Ernie Hoar MLA and wife stayed at the Boyup Brook Hotel over holidays. Alf Spencer fell from a bike and broke ribs, hospitalized. Many locals and visitors, including Gangel family, Gwen Forrest, and Digby Jones of the Interior Department, were mentioned with Christmas and New Year greetings. An Adelaide call surprised Mrs. Marshall, David in Darwin, and a humorously misprinted death notice prompted a future birth notice.
