JEAN KENT Eat a Peach The marmalade cat had slunk in with the morning, and was sitting, razor-eyed and silent, besi<Je the stove, waiting for breakfast. In the corners where patches of light reached, little pockets of dust were turning themselves inside out. Stretching up to the sun and yawning, subsiding in dizzy showers of gold. The cat dabbled his two front paws in the watery shallows of a thin insipid pool, but all the rest of him was grey. He sat there, two buttoned light bulbs, glowing in the dawn. Outside the light was everywhere. Moving quickly, slipping through the trees and unravelling their hair, sliding over the slippery face of the river and ruming the grass stalks. Only the curtained windows of the house remained frosted and resistant. Slinky fingers creep, settle on those glassy eyes. Slowly-barely a flicker of a lash-quick-world-exhaustive yawn-and then the quiver of morning, the rumpled tumult of covers, sheets, a crack in the curtain through which the thin light sluices. The sun and the waker swam, flailing groggily. Grayness dissolved. Buttery, the sudden bustle a shock to the gently strengthening light. It seemed to hang about the shadows, stunned. Until chunky sounds of water broke, somewhere within the house. The room erupted to rival the shower-floods of red yellow blue all the colours hidden by the night-so morning had finally begun. (il) Helen was greeted by the cat, a pliant arch of scrambled lemons-and-oranges. Across the room the progression of marbled arcs, preceded by a rusty purr. She bent down and stroked his back, ruffled his ears a little. She pulled back the curtains that were thinly sifting the sunlight into the room. From the refrigerator, milk. The rapid pink tongue dipping in, out, in. She went out into the garden to pick peaches for breakfast. (iii) Waking faces at windows. Looking out to determine the nature of the day, saw: (Graham)-Helen walking out over grass still damp, her heavy plait of hair tangled in sun. He knew, even before she reached it, that she was heading for the peach tree. Health and vitality herself, she would bring peaches for breakfast. WESTERLY, No.3, SEPTEMBER,1977 5 Briefly, he looked out. But he knew exactly how she would walk across the grass to the tree, and did not need to stand and watch what he had already learned by heart. He decided to go down and join her. (Damien)-The sun on brown arms upreached to a dazzling circle of bright orange-pink peaches in a nest of green. Just at that moment, as he parted the blind and looked out, Helen was standing beneath the peach tree, poised on tiptoe and stretching towards those coloured eggs. His eye flicked open on the scene, and automatically his hands went searching for his camera. If he could only frame it -while all the garden was still huge and soft, to place within it that one luminous jewel. He had the camera in his hands. With held breath, tense face, not daring to pause, he had caught her and framed her, a perfect celluloid miniature; pressed the shutter ... (Craig)-Walking across the garden as if she had appeared there for the first time. Her feet still held by the soil. In her skirt, she was carrying peaches, the brown material hooked up to make a cradle for the pinky fruit. Through the thick trees, the day drifted fitfully. Helen emerged, receded, over zebra crossings of light and shade. In the dark stripes, lost, dependent upon sun for life. It is only Helen, he said, bringing peaches for breakfast. Focusing hard. Then out of the shadows, Graham. So that her face broke, he could see her talking. The shift of reality winded. Suddenly his fingers in the furrows of fore­ head. Weakly watching two simple humans, a very ordinary pocket of life. (Gabrielle)-Helen, in the early morning riverdrifts of light. She had woken to find the sun climbing in barley sugar trickles the wall behind her bed; she shook the curtain to make the light dance in the night-wilted room. The window glass bounced and the whole wall was swamped. And there was Helen, part of some dream waking in the dappled garden. Walking through the dew, leaving a narrow trail of crushed dark grass. She went to the peach tree. Reached up to its orange crown to gather fruit, light dripping on her arms and the twist of yellow hair that hung down her back. Dripping and clinging brilliantly to the massed orange fruit in its shelter of green ... A Renoir, 'was' it of young girls in straw hats in an orchard, she had seen once ... Helen, now, under the green and pinky-orange tree, in the trickling morning. Night not quite dispelled, the garden a dark cave. Twinkle of sun at the tips of the trees, paler green tents that quivered with the first breaking plinks and pebbly whorls of birdsounds. Somewhere, through the trees, the river would be shedding its snaky skin of grey, and tossing coloured plates in glittering chains from bank to bank. Helen, walking back now with the hem of her dress tucked up around the fruit, was a slow wave that came in crested with sun. Rising up between the islands of shade, subsiding. Graham came out to meet her. Her face spilt light. The interruption an estrangement, a dilution. Gabriel sighed. The sight was still a yellow stone finely cut inside her, rays fanning out. It hurt. (iv) Helen was bringing in the peaches she had picked for breakfast. Running water over them in the sink, water that clung in tiny drops to the pink yellow orange fur. "There are a few grubs, Graham," she said. "But perfectly ripe." Perfectly. (v) In a blue bowl on the kitchen table, a melting feast of perfect peaches, just­ picked with a twig and a leaf or two still hanging, little watery pearls clinging to the skin. 6 WESTERLY, No.3, SEPTEMBER, 1977 (vi) Biting in through fuzz (Gabrielle), not waiting to peel, but sinking in teeth, eager for juice. Perfect, thinking aah. Can hardly breathe, hardly bear it, but having begun, cannot stop. So heady. Suede skin, against the roof of her mouth, soft clasp, runny flesh, surrender. Ringing, sunlush, so clear.

  • Women in Parliament
    MAKING A DIFFERENCE—A FRONTIER OF FIRSTS WOMEN IN THE WESTERN AUSTRALIAN PARLIAMENT 1921–2012 David Black and Harry Phillips Parliamentary History Project Parliament of Western Australia 2012 EDITH DIRCKSEY COWAN MLA West Perth 12 March 1921–22 March 1924 (Nat). Contested West Perth 1924, 1927 (for WEL). First woman elected to an Australian Parliament. In March 1921 Edith Cowan had the distinction of being the first woman to be elected to an Australian Parliament and only the second woman in the British Empire to sit in Parliament. Her surprise victory at the age of 59, by only 46 votes after the distribution of preferences, in the seat of West Perth was accomplished after an outstanding record as a pioneer of women’s involvement in public life. Edith Cowan regarded the right of women to vote as a ‘natural right’, and a self-evident extension to this was the right to sit in Parliament. During her one term in the Legislative Assembly she was responsible for achieving the rare passage of two important private member’s Bills: one measure specified that a person should not be disqualified ‘by sex or marriage’ from exercising any public function, from practising law or from entering any other profession; while the other gave equal inheritance rights to mothers when a child died intestate and without issue. A scholarly biography of Edith Cowan (1861–1932) by her grandson Peter Cowan, entitled A Unique Position,1 was published in 1978. The work depicted that she had a troubled childhood after being born at Glengarry near Geraldton on 2 August 1861.

  • The Karrakatta Club: Looking Back—Looking Forward
    Member of the Australian and International Associations of Lyceum Clubs KARRAKATTA CLUB Established November 1894 NEWSLETTER: OCTOBER/NOVEMBER 2019 MANAGEMENT REPORT Dear members, This has really been a momentous year for the Karrakatta Club. After a period of very careful checking of all our operations, the decision to relinquish our much-loved premises was not an easy one. It was reached after extensive consultation with auditors, commercial real-estate agents, lawyers and most importantly with you, the members. What became apparent is that belonging to a private club is about people, not things. It is the quality of relationships developed over many years that counts. That our members could make such a difficult decision, and could look to the future rather than the past, is hugely encouraging. There is a collective will to continue as a group which can only benefit us all. As I write this, we are still not able to make an announcement about our premises. Nevertheless, our programme will continue. Lyceum speakers are already being booked, and that programme is assured. Your committee is also hoping that a future free of financial constraints will allow us to explore all sorts of other activities; theatre or opera excursions, film outings, trips of some sort. We are counting on you to let us know what you would like us to provide. Meanwhile the last part of the year brings some very special events. Our birthday celebrations in October, our fun-filled Melbourne Cup and our Christmas lunch seem really significant this year. If this really is our last time here, let’s savour them with enormous gratitude for all the happy memories we share.

  • WESTRALIAN SCOTS: Scottish Settlement and Identity in Western Australia, Arrivals 1829-1850
    WESTRALIAN SCOTS: Scottish Settlement and Identity in Western Australia, arrivals 1829-1850 Leigh S. L. Beaton, B.A (Honours) This thesis is presented for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy of Murdoch University 2004 I declare that this thesis is my own account of my research and contains as its main content work which has not previously been submitted for a degree at any tertiary institution. …………………………. (Leigh Beaton) i THESIS ABSTRACT Before the end of 1850, Scottish settlers in Western Australia represented a small minority group of what was, in terms of the European population, a predominantly English colony. By comparison to the eastern Australian colonies, Western Australia attracted the least number of Scottish migrants. This thesis aims to broaden the historiography of Scottish settlement in Australia in the nineteenth century by providing insights into the lives of Westralian Scots. While this thesis broadly documents Scottish settlement, its main focus is Scottish identity. Utilising techniques of nominal record linkage and close socio- biographical scrutiny, this study looks beyond institutional manifestations of Scottish identity to consider the ways in which Scottishness was maintained in everyday lives through work, social and religious practices. This thesis also demonstrates the multi-layered expressions of national identity by recognising Scottish identity in the Australian colonies as both Scottish and British. The duality of a Scottish and British identity made Scots more willing to identify eventually as Westralian

  • An Historical Analysis of the Contribution of Two Women's
    They did what they were asked to do: An historical analysis of the contribution of two women’s religious institutes within the educational and social development of the city of Ballarat, with particular reference to the period 1950-1980. Submitted by Heather O’Connor, T.P.T.C, B. Arts, M.Ed Studies. A thesis submitted in total fulfillment of the requirements of the degree of PhD. School of Arts and Social Sciences (NSW) Faculty of Arts and Sciences Australian Catholic University November, 2010 Statement of sources This thesis contains no material published elsewhere or extracted in whole or in part from a thesis by which I have qualified for or been awarded another degree or diploma. No other person’s work has been used without due acknowledgment in the main text of the thesis. This thesis has not been submitted for the award of any degree or diploma in any other tertiary institution. All research procedures in the thesis received the approval of the relevant Ethics/Safety Committees. i ABSTRACT This thesis covers the period 1950-1980, chosen for the significance of two major events which affected the apostolic lives of the women religious under study: the Second Vatican Council (1962-1965), and the progressive introduction of state aid to Catholic schools, culminating in the policies of the Whitlam government (1972-1975) which entrenched bi- partisan political commitment to funding non-government schools. It also represents the period during which governments of all persuasions became more involved in the operations of non-government agencies, which directly impacted on services provided by the churches and the women religious under study, not least by imposing strict conditions of accountability for funding.
