It also covers a branch meeting on local option in New Zealand and other community notices including cricket talk, magazine notes, and local tender calls.

A local social at Upper Flynn's Creek on May 17 drew a fair crowd despite bad weather. Dancing featured Mr Ak of Traralgon and Mr Wo Mor with lively numbers, while refreshments were served around 11. The event included remarks by Mr W Landley and Mr John Hughes about community projects including a library and improvements to the cultivated lands, with plans for a concert and ball in the near future.
