Consequently many excellent Australian writers are here unrepresented, their work being perforce held over for The Second Bulletin Story Book, although it is work of a quality equal to that which is now given. The risk and expense of this publication are undertaken by The Bulletin Newspaper Company, Limited. Should any profits accrue, a share of forty per cent, will be credited to the writers represented. Owing to the length of time which, in some cases, has elapsed since the original publication in The Bulletin, the names and addresses of some of the writers have been lost sight of; and their work appears over pen-names, The editor will be glad if these writers will communicate with him and assist in completing the Biographical Index at the end of the book. -

STEELE RUDD," and HIS GIFT of LAUGHTER an Australian Literary Heritage [By ERIC D
127 "STEELE RUDD," AND HIS GIFT OF LAUGHTER An Australian Literary Heritage [By ERIC D. DAVIS] (Read at a Meeting of the Society on 26 March 1970) To me personally—it is something very close to my heart to be asked to address you concerning my late father—bet ter known as "Steele Rudd." From as early as I can remember, I always thought he was the greatest man in the world, and with the passing of the years, my admiration for him has not diminished any. Needless to say, I am honoured when 1 am called upon to tell people about the person I always called "Dad." No doubt this is also the cardinal reason why I am in the process of writing his biography. The wording on his memorial cairn at Drayton, where he was bom, on the Darling Downs, Queensland, has always impressed me. It reads: "He brought to Australian writing the rich gift of hon est laughter with the undertones of the struggles and sor rows of the pioneers." Yes, indeed, he had the abUity to make people laugh, and at the same time combine his humour with pathos. I think it can be truthfully said his writings were an affirmation of the thoughts of W. M. Thackeray, the famous English author, that "A good laugh is sunshine in the house." Strangely enough, it wasn't my father's intention to ap pear as a funny man when he started to write in the early 'nineties, but as time went by, the literary mantle of fame which became his lot, I fear often weighed heavUy upon him as he endeavoured to please his reading public. -

RH Mathews and Anthropological Warfare: on Writing the Biography of a ‘Self-Contained Man’
RH Mathews and anthropological warfare: on writing the biography of a ‘self-contained man’ Martin Thomas Introduction: the biographical lacuna It is now almost three decades since AP Elkin published in Oceania a three-part article titled ‘RH Mathews: his contribution to Aboriginal studies’.1 Recently I have been pur- suing my own research into Mathews, gathering material for a book that Elkin, had he found the time, might well have written: a biographical study of the surveyor-turned- anthropologist. To use a term that Mathews once employed for extracting information from informants, I have found it a process of ‘long & patient hammering’.2 Although Mathews’ anthropological career, which lasted from the early 1890s until his death in 1918, gives him presence in a wealth of documentary records, he remains a difficult quarry for the biographer. The problems I have encountered in coming to grips with his life history are due in part to his extreme reticence in all matters personal. In the words of his son William, RH Mathews was a ‘self-contained man’.3 In that regard he substantiates a sage obser- vation on the part of Claude Lévi-Strauss — that a calling to anthropology allows an individual in ‘an initial state of detachment’ to find advantage when approaching dif- ferent societies ‘since he is already halfway towards them’.4 In his own society Mathews was probably long inured to a degree of personal and intellectual isolation, though it was undoubtedly exacerbated by his exceedingly hostile relations with other members of the small anthropological fraternity in Federation-era Australia. -

Aboriginal Sites
Aboriginal Sites 19 Aboriginal Sites There are an unknown number of traditional Aboriginal cultural heritage sites across the Border Rivers and Gwydir catchments. These sites are in different environmental zones and reflect a great variety of land uses and forms of interaction with the environment. It is probable that all areas of the Border Rivers and Gwydir catchments were occupied by Aboriginal people at some stage in the past. Therefore, Aboriginal sites may be found in any location. Most sites are a reflection of the available food and shelter in the area where they are located, and of the geology and landforms of that area. Some of the Aboriginal sites that can be found across the catchment include: • burials (dhanmurr) / skeletal remains • open camp sites (maraay) / fire hearths • isolated stone (maayama) artefacts and stone artefact scatters • middens containing shells (waa), bones (buya), organic material • scarred trees, both ceremonially carved and for tools and weapons • quarry sites for stone (maayama) and ochre • rock overhangs, shelters, and camp sites (maraay) • axe grinding grooves • stone fish traps (badi) • painted and engraved rock art • ceremonial sites, earth ring bora grounds and stone (maayama) arrangements • cultural sites / dreaming sites of significance 20 Burials Warning: This Chapter contains information regarding Aboriginal burial practices.

Dad Rudd, M.P. and the Making of a National Audience. Dad Rudd, M.P
Dad Rudd, M.P. and the making of a national audience. Dad Rudd, M.P. was the fourth and final film made by Ken G. Hall based on characters originally created by ‘Steele Rudd’ (Arthur Hoey Davis) in 1895. It. was also the first of four films to receive a £15,000 overdraft from the NSW government as part of an attempt to encourage local film production. It was released by Cinesound in Australia in June 1940. According to the Australasian’s film critic ‘The Chiel,’ when the film was shown in Melbourne, ‘a queue that was 100 yards long to the box office, a crowded theatre, and sustained applause indicated that the Australian people have no fault to find with “Dad Rudd, M.P.”’(Chiel 1940). Box office for the film was indeed remarkable in Australia and the film also gained popular acclaim in Britain, where it was screened more than 1400 times before mid-1941 (Pike 1980:45). The Rudd family texts are unique in Australian cultural history for the extent to which they have been adapted, and the degree of their popularity in a variety of media over time. Authors, producers, directors and publicists of these texts engendered a market defined by its recognition of Australian cultural commonplaces. In this respect the Rudd characters have been instrumental in the creation and characterization of a specifically ‘Australian’ audience that can be defined in relation to a set of national symbols. Dad Rudd, M.P., in particular, illustrates the way in which such national symbols can be a product of market imperatives, overseas influences and chance. -
