Numurkah Districts Early History and Chemists
The Numurkah district’s early medical history traces apothecaries to English origins and Victoria’s Pharmacy Board standards. Key figures include Frank Bignell, his wife a pioneer lady chemist, Samuel Heald, Thomas Crawford, Don Patchell, Cecil Patchell, and Mary Patchell. The narrative covers shop sites, moves to England and Australia, and community roles held by chemists in local institutes, schools, clubs, and associations.

Preference To Soldiers At Lungaman Council Debate
A long council discussion in Lungaman focused on giving preference to returned soldiers for temporary appointments during the current war. The motion allowed temporary posts for those abroad, with preference to qualified veterans, while aiming to dismiss the secretary and engineer after the war. Community groups supported the plan, and the council ultimately agreed that future appointments be temporary with preference for present-war veterans.
