Guyra Gets New Dennis Fire Engine For Local Brigade
A Dennis 250 fire engine was installed at Guyra Fire Station replacing the old unit. The new machine can pump 250 gallons per minute and features rear-mounted controls. Brigade Captain L P Archibald praised the Board of Fire Commissioners for the upgrade and noted the unit’s speed and efficiency. Water supply from local wells aided a recent hotel fire, with about 7000 gallons used, and the new engine was praised for its role in the successful save.

Athol D Ombrain of Lorn West Maitland reports a pair of ducks of an unusual breed a cross between Khaki Campbell and a wild Mountain Dukk.

Eggs appeared daily then three on Friday and two on Sunday. No other birds present rule out misidentification.
