Obituary: G. HL Dann of Dunreath Tamworth District

He joined farming and grain growing and helped Tamworth Farmers and Settlers Association F and A Association and Graziers Association. He supported fodder conservation and irrigation. Mr Dunn invented and patented the first hand choker cutter in Australia and a bull bridle that lifts beasts from canting or charging. The inventions sold well via SA Warmer’s Union and his family maintained a tradition of engineering. His mother was a Spreaddaughter from the founder of Howards of Bedford England. He was a devout Methodist and actively supported the church. He is survived by his brother HH 3 Dunn of Black Springs.

Advice on Evening Wear for Dance Frocks
Georgia Rivet, fashion expert, warns dresses for dancing must allow movement, avoid trains and tight hiplines, long skirts favored but with length checked for comfort. Designers favor variety with high necklines, taffetas, chiffons, velvets, and satins, while long skirts and high waists remain rule of thumb for winter evenings.
