A garbled list of names and items appears in a local page, mentioning Durban Catton Krovive Fisher Pollan Wax and various seemingly personal entries. Readable fragments show a named crowd of individuals and unclear product or event references.
A fragmented report outlines disputes between soldier settlers, the War Service Homes Commission, and local authorities over settlement roads, gazetting, and funding. Key figures include Mr Coulter, Dr Drayton, and Mr Chullen, with debate on approvals, costs, and promised improvements. The record notes settlers’ deplorable conditions and calls for revaluation and better management by Commonwealth authorities.
A curiously worded fashion and home guide discusses garments, stockings, and lingerie, offering advice on color coordination and practical wear. It mentions dress fabrics, shoe color pairing, jewelry, and care methods while warning about chilblains and waterproofing, ending with a few patterns and where to obtain patterns from local suppliers.
