Bunbury Chronicle Adrift in a Jam of Machinery and Mirth
A chaotic Bunbury row fills pages with a roadside crowd jeering at a stubborn rock crusher, engineers and foremen improvising with cotton wool and explosives, officials mocked by ratepayers, and a sharp parable on town labor and prison work. The piece rolls on to fashion hijinks, municipal shifts, and local figures like T.T. Moore, Victor Johnston, and a dentist of droll notes before a brisk ad for Electra Plates wedding gifts.
