Then it was back to the lounge where we packed in to hear the speeches in a programme emceed by Bob Osborne, a Board member with a history of volunteer activities with MDHS and a fund of stories spanning some fifty years. Glenis Beamont, CEO, made presentations to residents representing their fellow residents from each of the four wings: framed photographs of historically significant areas of Maryborough. Chairs were then pushed back to allow for entry and cutting of an Two residents enjoying their cake. enormous cake followed by a performance of Scottish dancing which included that famous New Year’s Day highlight – the girl dancing on the drum. Two residents wrote poems especially for the day, one of them being our own well-known contributor to The Welcome Record’s poetry page, Elizabeth Rickards. (For all those who love her work, she told me she had ‘another batch’ to send us.) All this was followed by a sumptuous afternoon tea and a wonderful display of photos. The Nursing Home we have today replaced Clarendon House in 2004 and is one of three MDHS residences, the others being located in Dunolly and Avoca. Jean Anderson for The Welcome Record The Bealiba township came to life with the ‘Thru the Lens’ photographic competition. Judy and Wayne McKail impressed Queen Victoria with the sewing machines from the Victorian era. Her Majesty is trying to work out how to use one. Wrong end for the needle ma’am. Fun day for all.

The Historical Society hosted their third annual photographic competition and open day, with over 60 entries across the age groups with the majority in the open section. We need, of course, to thank all of the generous sponsors. Without their support we would not have had a competition. Donations of cash totalled over $200 and this was distributed across the categories for prizes. Plus we had donations of goods which we raffled off. (A prize was a hand knitted jacket that many had their eyes on). All of this helps to cover our costs on the day. We could not hold this community event without the generosity of everyone who donated their time and money. A big thank you to you all! On the day we had an amazing display of antique sewing machines from ‘Sew What Maryborough’. Wayne and Judi McKail are treasures themselves, donating their time and effort. They then surprised everybody with a donation of an oven door from Pennington’s store in Bealiba that had been part of their personal collection in their museum in Maryborough. I am quite sure that Maryborough has no idea what they have lost in the closing of the Flour Mill Gallery; let’s just hope they can find a home for their amazing collection before it is lost from this shire. Ann Jeffree, from ‘Sketched Spun & Warped ‘in Clunes, donated her time and expertise to run a photo workshop. All the participants came away with knowledge about their cameras, plus tricks and tips of how to take a great photo of their pet. I heard that some were still up in the wee hours reading their camera manuals, discovering more about the technology and honing their skills. Next year we hope to expand on the workshop idea; not only camera skills but presentation skills, encouraging participation from all sections of the local community. We also need to thank Georgia McGuire from Dunolly, who stepped in at the last minute to judge our photo competition, and all for a plate of sandwiches!!! Georgia brought her artistic skill and eye to this task. What an interesting time it was to work alongside her as she viewed and selected the winners. While Judging is a subjective process, there is a range of criteria that would be of interest to our budding photographers, there is potential there for a workshop too! We had visitors to the gardens that were open in town. While it has been such a difficult season with 29 October 2014 the roses only just coming out now and many of the seasonal flowers just not lasting more than a day or two, there was still much to admire. Nola McClelland put a great deal of effort in compiling the garden list including historical facts about the properties that added great interest; we look forward to a better year in our gardens...maybe some rain??? Our Historical displays were also very popular. A table of just a few of the boxes of photos we had donated was laid out and so many people pored over them, identified the pictures, and added names to the many faces. It was quite a talking point. The CWA kept us all fed and watered through the day; as always this was a good spot to sit and catch up. Again we thank everyone who donated goods and prize money, plus all the volunteers, visitors and supporters who came and helped, making this a really great community effort. We are all looking forward to staging this event again next year. We learn a little more each year, and know we can build on this success. We are constantly reminded of the spirit of Adrian Cook and his passion for photography, community and our local history. We hope to see you all next year.

Judy Meldrum The lovely hand knitted jacket that was the prize in the raffle 29 October 2014 THE WELCOME RECORD A TIMELY REMINDER FROM THE CFA After being called out to attend several ‘burn offs’ that developed a mind of their own at the weekend, the CFA would like to remind local residents of the necessary precautions and regulations around burning off at home. Paul Tangey, Community Education Co-ordinator for the CFA North West region, has urged residents to consult weather forecasts before lighting fires. A cool, calm morning can quickly deteriorate into a windy afternoon or evening and fires travel very quickly when fanned by wind. Residents must always check with their local shire regarding regulations around lighting fires and a call to the Victorian Burn-Off Notification Line is always advisable. It may save an unnecessary call out by the local CFA when a neighbour reports smoke or flame. Fire Restrictions for Summer come into force in the Loddon Shire at 1.00am on Monday 3 November. The Goldfields Shire will introduce restrictions in a few weeks time. Mr Tingey emphasised that the time to clean up around houses for the Summer season is well and truly upon us. Simple precautions homeowners should take now include: Mowing and slashing any long grass, especially around the house. Making sure gutters are free of leaves and debris. Cutting back overhanging tree branches close to the house or sheds. Raking leaf litter or bark away from the house. Removing any piles of firewood that pose a threat to the house. Making sure any flammable liquids, including petrol and old paint tins, are stored safely away from houses. For any further details or information go to: The CFA website, cfa.vic.gov.au, Victorian Bushfire Information Line, 1800 240 667 or install the FireReady app on your phone or ipad. This app enables you to create a ‘watch zone’ around your area and sends you notifications of any fire within that watch zone as soon as they are reported to the CFA. There will be a CFA display and an opportunity to ask any questions you may have at the next Dunolly market on 9 November. Faye Arnold Raffle tickets are now being sold prize is a trailer load of wood. The raffle will be drawn on Saturday 8 November at the Uniting Church Market.

The new times are: Monday CLOSED Tuesday & Wednesday 8.30am to 1.00pm Thursday & Friday 8.30am to 5.00pm Saturday 8.30 am to midday I realise these new times may take a while to get used to and may inconvenience some people.

Peter Daly Page 6 Vol 29 Iss 40 THE WELCOME RECORD BEALIBA RESERVOIR After visiting the photo display, buying a ticket in the raffle for the gorgeous hand knitted jacket which I can see myself wearing, and enjoying a lunch made by the hardworking Bealiba CWA ladies, it was time to visit the Bealiba reservoir. There is something very satisfying about coming onto a body of water in our dry landscape, and Bealiba Reservoir did not disappoint us. It is a small body of water as reservoirs go, but is set in natural bushland filled with birdsong. Edged with green algae and rushes, and with a high water mark from wetter years clearly visible, it is a lovely spot. No wonder there are a number of sticks in place to hold fishing rods. Campfire remnants indicate it is popular camping spot as well. Plenty of birds including honeyeaters, swallows, and some type of stilts were calling to each other in the still air. Little bushflies greeted me with well-placed stings and hurried me back to the car in search of nonexistent insect repellent. A gravel road goes all the way around the reservoir, crossing the dam wall at one point. Access to the water is very easy as there are no steep banks. Bealiba people are lucky to have this great recreation area at the foot of Mount Bealiba for their use. Vicky Frizzell JOAN'S GARDEN Despite a stormy night and a blustery wind, Joan Cook's roses made a beautiful welcome for the depleted Dunolly Garden Club last Monday. The red roses were in full bloom, but the white ones were only starting so Joan will be able to enjoy her roses for a while yet. The irises were in full bloom and seemed to be unaffected by the dry spring we're having. Joan's son Chris was on hand to discuss his role in the garden's maintenance. The pair has made extensive use of a variety of succulents which work well with the bigger shrubs. Chris has also put down a thick layer of mulch in all the garden beds and has used soaker hoses to allow for quicker watering time and less water waste. Gardening practices have had to evolve for gardens to remain viable in our changing climate, and Joan and Chris have done that successfully. Helped by their lovable and attention seeking dog, the work they have done has created a very pleasant place for everyone to enjoy. Thank you Joan and Chris for a very enjoyable afternoon, and for the banana cake Vicky Frizzell 29 October 2014 Beyond the Garden Path with Maz………….. The last Sunday of October turned out to be ideal for a drive to Bealiba to see the Photographic Competition in the Community Hall. First sight though, as we walked through the door was the amazing display of antique sewing machines. Wayne McKail, the owner of this collection, or should I say part collection, was there in person to show people around and impart to us his impressive knowledge about them. I personally found them quite fascinating. From the more simple designs, to what could be termed ‘Over the Top’ inventions. Not to forget the artistry and creativity of these beautiful pieces. It was just a mere 60 years ago that I was taught to sew, by my mother, on one of these similar machines. But of course by then we’d moved on from hand turning to treadle power. Photography of course is a similar time frame, minus five minutes or so in the scheme of things. From viewing crystal clear copies of black and white photos, from WWI (found in a French attic) to our modern day coloured pieces of art, such as those displayed at Bealiba on Sunday. What a long way we’ve come in a relatively short time. Animals were a favourite subject through the lens, especially family pets. First prize in the kids’ section of the old dog in the trough could have been titled ‘The things we do for love’. It’s a positive sign to see the work of young people interested in the arts. Keep up the good work. And who says the camera doesn’t lie. Some of the fabulous scenery and garden shots, could not possibly have that dreamy romantic perspective in real life could they? And I’m almost sure I put on half a kilo, just staring at that colourful display of cakes pictured. Every picture tells a story, albeit a different one to each set of eyes. My personal favourites were the Proud Rooster and the tasty Pomegranates. Casual lunch served with a cuppa and lots of smiles, after the viewings were over, was as always, excellent.

The Common School During the 1850s Dunolly was a bustling gold mining town. Its population consisted mainly of ‘Diggers’. On 23 March 1857 the foundation stone was laid by the Bishop of Melbourne, for the Church of England School, Dunolly. By January 1858 the building was almost completed, except for the roof. In typical church style a ‘Bazaar’ was held, and helped raise 70 pounds towards the building fund. By April, the stonework was completed and a government grant of 100 pounds almost paid for the completion of the building. The ‘Common School’ which had been functioning since March 1857 in premises in Broadway, transferred to the new building in May 1858. Known as the Church of England School, it became ‘Common School’ No. 189, after the passing of the Common School Act in May 1862. Mr and Mrs Joshua Thomas were in charge of the school. By 1872, nearly 200 pupils were attending the school. The two school rooms were so overcrowded that the infant classes were taught in the Dunolly Town Hall (now the Courthouse). Mr Thomas was in charge of the school for 18 years and retired when the school closed on 31 May 1875. At this time there were 390 pupils on the roll. On completion of Dunolly State School on 1 June 1875, the pupils all transferred to the new school building. The ‘school’ or as it is now known as ‘St John’s Hall’ has been used by the Church and the community ever since. (Taken from History of St John’s by R.L. Carless) Pam Brodie (More next week) 29 October 2014 CAN YOU HELP? This rather splendid cup was brought to the Dunolly Field and Game Gun Club shoot on the weekend.

What is the idea of that little man following people in the APIA ad? It is really ridiculous and irritating! Are court artists only allowed to draw two or three facial types? The similarity of the faces of criminals in their sketches is puzzling. No wonder they are hard to identify – they all look the same. After the invasion of ‘flying ants’ the other night there were heaps of their wings left outside the windows. They are nearly impossible to sweep up – being so light they just keep wafting about. Have you seen the toasters that were for sale in Maryborough a while back? Not only do they cook toast, but there was a section attached where you can poach or boil eggs. When I mentioned them to the lad in the shop, he said he wanted to know where he could cook his bacon!

Minister for Youth Affairs Ryan Smith today joined Liberal candidate for Ripon Louise Staley and Nationals Candidate for Ripon Scott Turner to announce that seven groups in Ripon will receive funding to support a range of local initiatives for young people. Ms Staley welcomed the funding from the Napthine Government's Engage program that will help more young people in the Ripon area connect with their local community and live active, healthy and fulfilling lives. ‘These programs build on the Napthine Government's commitment to give young Victorians more opportunities to get involved in their local community and develop skills that will help them in education and along employment pathways,’ Ms Staley said. There are seven groups involved; those pertinent to our area are: Central Goldfields Shire Council which will receive $125,000 to fund programs that help young people connect with the community; Inglewood and Districts Health Service which will receive $100,000 to deliver the Engaging and Supporting the Youth of South Loddon Program; and Goldfields Employment and Learning Centre which will receive $90,000 to deliver employment, work placement and training programs for young people. 29 October 2014 Mr Smith said the investment in the Ripon electorate forms part of the Napthine Government's $12 million Engage program. ‘Through the Engage program, more than 100 Victorian organisations are assisting young people to make the most of volunteering and mentoring opportunities, enabling them to develop wide-ranging skills for education, training and employment,’ Mr Smith said. Mr Turner said the Napthine Government is committed to partnering with local organisations to support young people. ‘The Engage program is another example of how the Coalition Government is working with the community to give young people more opportunities to follow their dreams and achieve their best,’ Mr Turner said.

Now with a memorial centre close by, the cairn is clearly noticed and visitors can read the information boards on Tilly’s achievements and gain the benefits of the surrounding sensory garden. A show of support came from Dunolly with the honour of Queen Victoria and her entourage in attendance. Aston family descendants attended and some came from as far away as the Grampians to celebrate Tilly Aston. ‘The year 1895 began with the six colonial Premiers meeting in Hobart to discuss Federation and make decisions. It ended with eight insignificant unknown blind people led by Tilly Aston meeting to discuss the future of blind people and make decisions.

I did something I’ve not done before I locked the keys outside the door I realised the mess I was in Some days you just can’t win. I sit at night watching TV With a big bag of chips on my knee They do make a bit of a mess But I just couldn’t care less. I rang up all the people I knew Although I only know a few To climb out the window would be a risk And I may even break a disc. Chocolate does awful things to your hips But you don’t have to worry with chips I don’t have to worry because I am slim And very healthy and full of vim. I then had a feeling of panic Just as if I was on the Titanic I never liked being locked in spaces Where I couldn’t see any other faces. People give me chockies as a gift But they don’t ever give me a lift I always give them all away Or keep them until someone comes to stay. I decided I would do some chores So I cleaned out cupboards and washed the floors The house had never looked so clean And no one here for it to be seen. I like to go out and see a movie Something real good and groovy And just sit and munch and munch I’m sure people would like to give me a punch. The cat then started to cry and cry And I knew exactly why He’s always been such a clean cat And wouldn’t do a thing like that. When we go for nice long trips I always take my bag of chips Without them I know I’d die As there’s nothing else I would try.

Department of Environment and Primary Industries (DEPI) Planning Manager Tony Dowler said: ‘Roads and tracks are closed temporarily to protect them from damage during the wetter months each year as part of DEPI and Parks Victoria’s seasonal road closure program. ‘ ‘These roads and tracks were closed over winter and spring for public safety and to protect track surfaces as well as water quality and the forest environment,’ Mr Dowler said. ‘While most of the closed roads and tracks which we are re-opening are part of the regular seasonal closures, there are also some being opened following the completion of repairs to damage caused by storms and bushfire.’ ‘Some roads may remain closed because of ongoing repair works.’ Chris Rose, Parks Victoria’s General Manager Regional Services said: ‘While we have made every effort to ensure visitors have access for the opening weekend, drivers need to be prepared to come across fallen trees and other debris in some places.’ ‘DEPI and Parks Victoria thank the many Four Wheel Drive Victoria volunteers who put in hundreds of hours of work to assist with the maintenance and promotion of seasonal road closures for the ongoing protection of Victoria’s parks and forests,’ Mr Rose said. ‘It’s great to see volunteers so committed to working in partnership for the betterment of Victoria’s natural spaces.’ Visitors are encouraged to obtain the most up- to-date information on access into forest and park areas before they travel.
