A Cairns district jumble reports visitors like Mr B Crouch of the Nelson Hotel and Mr Percy Lee from Mareeba while mobile arrivals include Andrew Dryden returning from Brisbane. Local ads promote Quick-Six cars and Hillman suits as aging figures and public notices blend with memorials and accident deaths in Cooktown and Marrickville.
Reports from England describe Y M C A ladies in London serving hot tea and sandwiches to Australia bound troops aboard the winter trains. The effort comforts tearful wives and departing soldiers, as the Red Triangle work concludes and the Commonwealth focus returns to homeland welfare.

An ad extols Dean's Backache Kidney Pills to relieve kidney and urinary issues.
