Northam Local Court to Hold ANA-A Musical Evening

Current happenings report a Northam court event hosting an ANA-A musical evening at Byfinid's Hall with a broad invitation, along with vaccination exemptions under the Act for conscientious objectors. The railway question is raised at Milland Junction Council regarding a Northam to Tooday route via Avon Valley, with Perth City Council now to discuss the railway's broader path. Remarks criticize Midland line delays, citing Geraldton Express lateness and public tolerance. Expensive Wandoo and York Guin timbers are noted as valued for reach-building, supplied by H and H Withpoll. No rainfalls recorded at Northam Post Office since Friday, totaling 24 points for the period.
