WATER ONLY WASH WHEN RATING YOU HAVE A FULL LOAD

Did you know, one of the easiest places to save water is in the laundry? Start by only washing when you have a full load, and using the water saving mode if your machine has one. Small changes like this will help reduce our water use in the Great Southern region.

The state’s second- oldest licensed club is appealing for donations YOUR ONE STOP FOR ALL to help restore its ornate THE LEADING BRANDS old verandah and balcony which were demolished in 1950. Club treasurer Phil Bailey said this had exposed the southeast section of the building to weather damage it was not designed to withstand.

The building was David Webb and Lynne Meads. Mae Elliot and Graham Hooton, photo by Penny de Jong originally John Moir’s home but he leased it to the club when it was fi ve years old in 1895 after his wife and young son had died. Moir was one of 25 founding members along with other well- known Albany identities J. Arthur Wright, A.Y. Hassell, S.J. Haynes and Dr Ingoldby. Although the club was eventually able to buy the building in 1944 it unfortunately never found the funds to maintain it properly. A Heritage Council grant of $51,000 will go a long way toward the restoration. SATURDAY 6 MAY 11AM - 4PM “We are now faced Phil Bailey and Murray Montgomery. with raising $52,000 to complete the project,” Mr Bailey said.

HE 28th Battalion at Blackboy Hill Camp in 1915. The Battalion’s men came primarily from WA and was raised at the camp in early 1915 to form the fourth Battalion in the 7th Brigade, itself part of the 2nd Division. The camp was named after the grass trees (black boys) which grew all around the site. M SUNDAY TThe camp’s facilities and adjacent structures were on the hill now used by St Anthony’s Primary School and Greenmount Primary School. The remaining NOW! ENDS 5 land is known on offi cial documents and maps as the Blackboy Hill Commemorative Site. During the troop build-up to WWI the camp housed large numbers of Australian Imperial Force troops before they left for battlefront locations in Europe and the Middle East. Troops were transported to the adjacent Helena Vale Railway Station and marched across to the camp to prevent disruptions to the Eastern Railway. Blackboy Hill Post Offi ce opened on August 29, 1914 and closed on November 30, 1918, defi ning the site’s occupation. In April 1919 the camp was turned over to the Department of Health and acted as a fever hospital for treating Spanish Flu.
