Mossman Social Notes Show Varied Winter Briefs
The Mossman district reports rising unemployment since the previous season and many seek sustenance assistance while others are ineligible. A euchre party and New Year ball were held at the Convent Building with prizes won by Mrs Morse and Mr Sorenson. New Year’s Day saw quiet celebrations and Mossman Beach crowded with holiday crowds. The community bids farewell to veterinary surgeon Mr T H McBarron who died after a short illness. Visitors include Mrs H Goodman and Mrs Dent, with others spending weekends in town. The CWA built a seaside home at Por Douglas slated for opening and two Mossman hotels are under construction.
