Bernice Davidson

Bernice is enjoying lessons

in Botanic Art. Her teacher,

who travels to Henty every

six weeks, comes from Bee-

chworth. Bernice is her old-

est pupil. Pastels and char-

coal have been other medi-

ums Bernice has learnt

with Gwen Bullock. Bernice

began using oils as a medi-

um many years ago.

Edna Wilson

Edna continually raises

money for the Cancer Cen-

tre. Here she is seen selling

raffle tickets for her latest

raffle. Previously her dona-

tions were for cancer re-

search, but now money

raised goes to the Albury-

Wodonga Regional Cancer

Centre. Edna can no longer

take part in the Biggest

Morning Teas because of

the home-made nature of

the cooking so she relies on

raffles and donations, the

next big one being Fathers’

Day.

Esme Maloney

Esme is winding wool for

the Myoora Knitwits. Every

Thursday afternoon they

get together to knit or cro-

chet squares to make

squares for Wraps with

Love. The Knitwits have

contributed over 500 rugs.

Anne Ogle

Anne is a knitter for Wrap

with Love. There is always

someone on hand to pick up

a dropped stitch or two. At

96, Annie loves knitting

and hopes to continue for

many years.

Daisy Hinch

Daisy has gardened all her

life, beginning at Urange-

line on the banks of the

Urangeline Creek. Just

married at “Werrawe” she

had one monkey apple tree

in the garden. Next, a

move to “Grubben” at

Yerong Creek where she

had a big area on the side

of a hill with large boul-

ders to work around. Then

moving to Third Avenue

where she held Open Gar-

den days, many weddings

and social occasions. It

covered three house

blocks.

Finally, a new start in

Hayes Street from a lovely

garden to winding down

for easy care.

Milton Taylor

Milton rides his gopher

each morning to buy his

daily newspaper. An ideas

man for many years, he is

still thinking big. He

would like to see, with

each house and land pack-

age sold in the town, the

establishment of a taxi

service in the town circum-

ference. For a few dollars,

on two or three days a

week, residents could hire

a volunteer driver and taxi

for half an hour duration

to go to the newsagent or

to Dale’s for a few grocer-

ies or even for an hour hire

to enjoy a coffee at the

Bakery.

Henty has most facilities

for the elderly and a taxi

service could be of great

assistance for them.

the Henty Community

increasing literacy

In today’s society libraries

play a key role in creating

literate environments and

promoting literacy by offer-

ing relevant and attractive

reading material for all ag-

es. They embrace the social

responsibility to offer ser-

vices that bridge social and

economic barriers, and tra-

ditionally make a special

effort to extend their ser-

vices to everyone in the

community.

Greater Hume Council li-

braries’ aim is to encourage

literacy in young children

and of course encourage

more residents to become

members of our libraries.

One of the programs al-

ready launched in Cul-

cairn and Henty is the

placing of ‘Book Nooks’ in

local businesses and com-

munity organisations.

The staff at the Henty and

Culcairn Libraries would

like to say a big thank you

to all of the businesses and

community organisations

that have taken part in

the Little Book Nook pro-

gram so far. Everyone is

making a big contribution

to increasing literacy in

our community

If you are interested in

participating and have a

small space where around

10 picture books and a

small ‘Book Nook’ sign can

be placed please contact

Gallery to join celebrations

of the celebrations for the

unveiling of the bronze

sculpture of Headlie Taylor.

Friday November 9 has

been set aside for celebrat-

ing the official opening of

the streetscape, the new

Fire Station and the 20th

anniversary of the opening

of the Bendigo Bank.

Sladen Street will be closed

from 2.00pm till 9.00pm

and there will be stalls, all

shops open, night-time

activities, a sausage sizzle

and lots of free entertain-

ment for families.

This book saves lives!

The Emergency Medical

Information Book - con-

tains all of your infor-

mation and medical rec-

ords which are needed if

or when an ambulance is

called and you need to be

transported to a hospital.

When paramedics are

called, a typical scenario is

that distraught family

members may be unable to

give correct details of the

patient’s condition, or the

medication they may be on.

The paramedics physically

have to collect all the pa-

tients medication in the

house, try and obtain a

medical history and take it

to the hospital with the pa-

tient.

This small book contains

patient contacts, service or

carer provider information,

medications and any medi-

cal condition, so a paramed-

ic is able to treat and ready

a patient for transport to a

hospital.

Who should have one of

these books?

All people, adults and chil-

dren who take medications

or have a medical condition

should have a book, espe-

cially elderly people living

on their own. Each book

has a clear plastic sleeve

with strip magnets and is

placed on the fridge door

once the book has been

filled out by the owner

(patient) together with

their doctor.

This is a joint community

project with Lions and Ro-

tary Clubs; an initiative

maintained and distribut-

ed in your community by

the Lions Club of Henty.

More than 1,000,000 books

have been distributed Aus-

tralia- wide and a gold coin

donation for a copy is ap-

preciated. This little book

continues to save lives, as

it has for the past 18

years…it could well be

yours!

They are available in

Henty at the Henty Medi-

cal Centre, Henty Hospital

and the Henty Library.

Fill one out and stick a

booklet on your fridge!

You may wish to also have

one in the glove box of

your vehicle.

A well attended meeting

discussed several issues

related to the Gallery at

12 Sladen Street. A steer-

ing committee directs

Henty creative locals in

the setup and manage-

ment of the Gallery. Mat-

ters discussed included

scheduled delivery of arti-

cles to be displayed as

soon as possible, changing

for advertising. A logo for

the Gallery is the subject of

a competition. There is a

need for tapestry displays

to cover the walls and an

Henty Public School Term 2

ended with a PBL Treat

Day with staff and children

coming to school very re-

laxed in their pyjamas. The

weather was cold and wet

so pyjamas were a great

choice with all eligible chil-

dren enjoying a disco in the

afternoon. The other PBL

Treat Day for Term 2 was a

Crazy Hair and Movie Day.

Students who consistently

follow our Positive Behav-

iour for Learning values are

eligible to attend these re-

ward days.

Debating and multicultural

speaking began in Term 2

with both debating teams

progressing to the next

round. In the Multicultural

Eddy was awarded runner

up in the Year 3/4 division

and Konnar Betts was

awarded winner in the Year

5/6 division. Congratula-

tions to these students.

During the term, the Year 6

students attended a Peer

Support Camp aimed to

enhance leadership and life

skills.

Students took excursions to

the Riverina Environmen-

tal Education Centre in

Wagga where they enjoyed

Traditional Culture Days.

National Reconciliation

Week was also celebrated,

with David Dunn joining

the students. David is an

award winning, interna-

tional selling artist. All

classes participated in an

art class with David and

the end results were

astounding.

P J’s for treat day

NAIDOC Week was also

celebrated in the last week

of term where the children

enjoyed many interesting

and interactive activities.

Come to see the stunning

NAIDOC Week hand tree in

the office foyer. It looks

amazing.

The sporting calendar has

again been very full in

Term 2 with athletics, cross

-country, tennis, AFL and

netball keeping the stu-

dents busy. Congratula-

tions to Angus White for

progressing to state level in

cross country, an amazing

effort and to our Todd

Woodbridge Tennis win-

ners for making it on to the

next round of competition.

The school had a few staff

changes throughout the

term. We welcome Daniel

Cox as a School Learning

Support Officer and Peta

Bullock as School Admin-

istration Officer, both

Caryn Batty has also joined

as a pre-service social

worker until the end of the

year. Sarah Parker and

Teneal Jones were fare-

welled and the school

thanked them for their

time and efforts.

A big thanks also went to

the Henty Community Ben-

digo Bank for its donation

of $800 towards a wellbeing

project for the school. A

mental health forum for

the school and community

will take place next term.

The school also received a

$155 donation from The

Athletes Foot, Albury as a

reward for families buying

goods in the store.

Term 3 promises to be both

busy and exciting, but one

special date to put in your

calendar is the gala mat-

Wilfred Murrell, man of many talents-(part 2)

Wilfred Murrell competed

in a number of road trials

and won the first Ampol

sponsored race. This was

the first following the last

of the “Redex Trials”. Gelig-

nite Jack Murray was one

of the most well-known of

the characters of racing and

also competed in this race.

Wilf’s driving partner, Alan

Taylor, recorded their ad-

ventures and there are rare

copies of this book about.

Through his Peugeot agen-

cy a special car was or-

dered, a Peugeot 403, to

enter the Trial.

Six weeks prior to the start

of the race Alan and Wilf

worked on their car, strip-

ping it down, making modi-

fications that would see all

weather conditions met.

Murrell and Taylor were

declared winners of the

Ampol Trial in SYDNEY –

a 7,000 mile race with a

loss of only 258 points. This

race also recorded the

death of two of the race par-

ticipants. The death of two

drivers Leslie Slaughter

and William Mayes, of Syd-

ney, marred the closing

stages of the trial, which

was described as "the

toughest trial in the world."

A crowd of 30,000 watched

the 33 cars which complet-

ed the course arriving at

Bondi Beach.

Time and again Hillston

came up as the home base

of the winners. The head-

lines in the ‘50s and '60s

newspapers refer to - the

bushies from the outback

who did it again and won

the event.

Wilf was responsible for

many inventions, dozens

literally, his water purifier

was a typical example of

the talent that he had.

He is most well-known for

his water treatment plant.

A method and apparatus

for treating water con-

tained in a tank to remove

contaminants by passing a

current through a novel

electrode arrangement

characterised by vertically

disposed electrode plates.

Positive and negative half-

length electrode pairs are

arranged vertically with

respect to one another.

Such electrode pairs are

used in conjunction with

full length, active or pas-

sive vertical electrode

plates which are each adja-

cent to a vertical pair. Pref-

erably the electrodes and

tank are made of alumini-

um. The apparatus may, for

example, be operated from

solar cells. The impurities

rose with the bubbles creat-

ing a floc that could be

drained from the top of the

unit.

Wilf was also a good piano

player, provided many of

his friends with enjoyable

evenings around his grand

piano. This was valued

greatly because this was in

the days before TV and was

the only form of entertain-

ment available to country

people.

Also known for his ability

as a rifle and pistol shooter,

Murrell won many events

during his younger years

and was always ready with

advice and repairs for the

younger ones. He was in

the 1937 King's Shoot

championships in Sydney

which was quite an

achievement. He would

have been outright winner

if it were not for a sudden

illness which affected him

on the very last day of the

event.

He was also an expert pho-

tographer and a ham radio

enthusiast with friends all

over the world who regular-

ly contacted him and pro-

vided the international

information he needed to

stimulate his mind.

Wilfred Murrell was also a

saw miller in Hillston and a

garage proprietor in the

premises presently occupied

by the Hillston Rescue

Squad and later in his life,

a farmer on his property

“Wilga Farm”. He spent a

few years in Sydney during

the ‘70s when he engaged

in contract management of

buildings.

Wilf passed away at his

home on “Wilga Farm,”

South Australia after a

short illness in the early

hours of Friday July 22,

1994.

He was in the company of

his wife, daughter, grand-

daughter and his nurse at

the time.

Wilfred Murrell and his

wife Elsie are interred in

Henty Cemetery.

Recently Ken Jones (Dale’s

Supermarket’s checkout

chap) participated in the

Rugby Male Choir of Wag-

ga’s concert. Held in the

Sacred Heart Church at

Kooringal, the choir sang

to a packed house favour-

ites such as “Something’s

Gotta Give”, “The Rose”

and “Halleluiah”. The choir

boasts 85 members, 60 of

whom sang at this concert

alongside their brothers

from the New Zealand Na-

tional Male Choir who per-

formed a further eight

songs.

A special guest appear-

ance by the female mem-

bers of the Murrumbidgee

Magic delighted the crowd

as they performed their

first-prize items from the

Hobart festival. This group

of unaccompanied singers

belong to the Sweet Ade-

line Singers and includes

Anne Maher and Sue

Weston from Henty. The

Rugby Male Choir is al-

ways on the lookout for

more members in any

voice range. No musical

or singing experience is

necessary. The choir sings

musical pieces from tradi-

tional and modern compo-

sitions. Ask Ken for more

details.

Knitting for the needy The Henty Library held the

Annual Knit – In on Tuesday

July 17. Over twenty very

enthusiastic knitters from

Henty, Culcairn, Wagga

Wagga and the surrounding

area attended the event. It

was a fun day with lots of

knitting and chatting with

great company. The complet-

ed squares and rugs are sent

to the Wrap with Love Or-

ganisation and are then dis-

tributed to needy fami-

lies throughout the

world who are suffering

from severe cold, or nat-

ural disaster.

Thank you to everyone

who attended the knit-

ting workshop your con-

tribution to the Wrap

the past 18 years. Using

Myoora Hostel and the

Community Centre as her

classrooms she challenges

her “pupils” to bends,

Irma was presented with a

beautiful blue throw rug

which can be used in the

caravan or by the fire on a

cold winter’s night.

In thanking Irma for her

dedication to the groups,

many ladies spoke of the

commitment and willing-

ness to attend week after

week, only taking time out

for annual holidays and

Greater Hume Children

Services recently hosted a

playgroup at Memorial

Park, Henty to celebrate

the launch of our new

branding, and what a beau-

tiful morning it was!

Henty is always a beautiful

place to visit. The children

had so much fun using ma-

terials available, getting

the ropes to help them

climb the trees, taking risks

and seeing how far they felt

comfortable in climbing,

collecting all the gum flow-

ers, digging in the dirt, and

just having fun exploring

and investigating We will

be back Henty; maybe next

time at the common.

Would you like your child

or children to receive care

and early childhood educa-

tion in a homely, safe envi-

ronment in a small group.

where you will develop a

partnership with the Edu-

cator?

We are currently recruiting

Educators to join our team

of Early Childhood Profes-

sionals and provide care in

their home.

Farm brings home the bacon … and eggs well in Sydney, farmers’

markets and are available

in the Culcairn Supermar-

ket. The Lehmanns have

recently ventured into

pigs for Christmas hams

and to make the combina-

tion of bacon and eggs.

Their new-born chicks are

ordered two years in ad-

vance. The many govern-

ment regulations make

compliance very difficult.

When Amy reaches 2,000

chickens it will then be

time to make new deci-

sions.

Dozens of questions were

asked and Amy answered

them all with knowledge

and great expertise. This

is a wonderful family en-

terprise, supported by one

Grandma and two little

helpers, not yet farm

workers, but willing and

helpful (at times).

Question of the week came

from Allyn Maher regard-

ing her 87th birthday –

“Who was the white-

bearded man who kissed

me? I am so looking for-

ward to the July 11 meet-

ing!”

Don’t miss the opportunity

to hear the Watoto Chil-

dren’s Choir perform at

the Henty Community

Club on September 26,

2018.

Watoto means "children"

in Swahili language. The

choir is made up of chil-

dren who have lost one or

both parents to the AIDS

epidemic or to war. The

choir has toured Asia,

Australia, Brazil, Canada,

China, Germany, Israel,

The Netherlands, New

Zealand, the United King-

dom, the United States

and many other countries.

The choir travels with a

team of adults who look

after the children. The

organisation helps vulner-

able women and children

and has placed thousands

of orphans.

Their performances are a

blend of native African

rhythms, contemporary

gospel music and creative

dance. They have released

several albums including

“Mambo Sawa” and

“Beautiful Africa”.

Their latest album “Signs

and Wonders” features

live music played through-

out the concerts on most of

the tours. The concert be-

gins at 7.00pm. Admission

is free. Enquiries: contact

Bob or Kris Bowen on

0439881893.

President Jeannie Kenny

welcomed several birthday

and anniversary recipi-

ents to the June Probus

meeting. Elwyn and Ka-

ren Kotzur were congratu-

lated on their 65th wed-

ding anniversary. Mem-

bers were encouraged to

attend the Red Cross Fish

and Chip Night on June

22 and the Culcairn Choir

Singalongs at Clarke’s

Fahey Crescent home.

Neil Parker’s stimulating

talk told of his great-

grandparents travelling

from South Plymouth to

Adelaide in 1852. Being

farmers and sewers

(making clothes in the

home) the family decided

to migrate to Australia.

Times were tough. After

four years at Burra where

mining provided good

work they decided to work

their way up the river to

Woomargama. Neil’s fa-

ther then went to Henty

and members heard of his

many experiences on the

farm. Later Neil spoke of

his own time with Rotary.

Speaker of the day was

Amy Lehmann, wife of

Tobias. She recounted

many stories of their new

country enterprise at Walla

Walla. The Lehmanns lived

on the Central Coast with

an overabundance of sheds,

old cars and mechanics.

They then travelled exten-

sively to countries newly

free from communism be-

fore they began looking for

suitable farms between

Canberra and Albury. Wal-

la Walla it was!

Amy worked several jobs,

including a stint with

Sussan Ley, while her hus-

band continued to work in

Sydney. Their decision to

have a “chicken caravan”

came from their early farm

experience … chickens.

Their first batch of 450

came from Junee. The next

batch was 1,200. Work was

hard and time consuming

as in the first 14 months

they rolled every egg by

hand using a hand-made

light to inspect every one.

When they bought a

secondhand 1950s egg grad-

er they were made.

When a housewife buys an

egg from the supermarket

they are often weeks old.

Amy’s eggs are one to two

days old; never more than a

week. For cooking sponges

you will know the differ-

ence as the white keeps like

a ball in the hand. Older

eggs are watery. Eggs sell

conclusion to a very busy

and interesting year. Dig-

nitaries included Lions

Small who has filled the

position admirably for

many years. Terri Taylor

jects tackled by the mem-

bers. Due to a welcome

growth in membership,

Rotary and continue with

the newspaper recycling

project, another Rotary

initiative. A new Henty

and District Telephone

Directory was published in

January.

With the support of Bendi-

go Financial Services and

club fundraising, Henty Li-

ons were once again able to

sponsor deserving students

from the local primary school

to attend the Lions Licola

Adventure Camp. A new

community project instigated

by the club is the purchase

and distribution of the Emer-

gency Medical Information

Book to contain information

and medical records needed

in an emergency.

Once again, Henty Lions as-

sisted by manning the barbe-

cue at Carols in the Park and

conducted the Lions Youth of

the Year contest, with Nessa

Liston successful this year.

tinues to prove popular. The

club supported LHAC’s Men-

tal Health Forum at Billa-

bong High School.

Henty Lions catered for a

number of community func-

tions and assisted with the

CFS (Chronic Fatigue Syn-

drome) Concert to raise funds

for research. Sales from Li-

ons mints and Christmas

cakes funded various worthy

causes and there is an ongo-

ing project to refurbish the

Government Dam site and

open it up as a recreation

area.

Peter Mac meets monthly

to sew, knit, crochet, cut

out, sort and fill. Everyone

will be made most welcome

and can enjoy plenty of

chatting and a lovely lunch

prepared by the Uniting

Church ladies. This month

we have been knitting head

bands and coffee/tea card-

board cup covers in football

team colours.

Pat Duke sent a bag full of

lavender sachets along as

she was unable to attend

this time and lots of hand-

crafts were brought in by

others – rugs, coat hangers,

slippers, cot covers, shawls,

scarves and beanie sets.

The group has found a

“deliverer” to take items to

the Peter Mac Institute and

will be most helpful for get-

ting the craft to Melbourne.

This is the group’s 20th

year. During this time we

have delivered dozens of

boxes to the institute for

which we always received a

thank you for all the won-

derful and varied crafts.

Take a pat on the back la-

dies!
