History & Reflections

Pride in your Town This week we are just going back in time and giving a little bit of nostalgia to our article. Our first item of interest is the change today of men’s’ haircuts. In olden days every three weeks or so, the man would report to the barber shop. The old barber shop was often recognised by the red and white striped pole on the footpath. The barber shop in the past was often a very social meeting place for the men. The old barber’s chair with its ornate metal lacework in the footplate, padded arms rests and seats that even had the ability to be pumped up for convenience in cutting smaller boys hair. In those early days it was a standard cut of short back and sides. The clippers worked overtime at the neck base and upwards while the scissors did a good job of the top of the head. The operation was generally completed with a cloud of talcum powder on the brush as cut hair was brushed away, a mist of scented water from a spray and a palmful of hair cream rubbed into the scalp. Some mothers were famous for the “Basin cut” on their young offspring but thankfully that is now no longer practised, as the young have their own ideas. Mount Morgan had a number of Barber Shops, Snow Chick and Alex Morters where Brian Weaver was employed are a couple of the barbers shops we recall, can you remember others? Of course today the modern man visits the Salon and requires as much attention or more with his hair styling than most of the ladies require. Some of course love their long locks, as least there is a choice. In contrast to the men’s hair styles of the past, today’s ladies dressing tables look almost like a laboratory with a variety of cosmetics etc. So many plastic bottle and jars all with the magic contents that will keep all the wrinkles and ageing problems well away. In Grandma’s day, Pears soap was reputed to do all those things the many bottles of today can do. Even a juice of a lemon was an excellent shampoo addition. Sometimes Grandma also had little touches to her dressing table like little china dolls with handles and generally a crystal dressing table set. When going out a lady would lay on the eau de cologne with a delicate little puff from a spray. Even though technology has advanced so rapidly and left behind so many of yester years beauty aids it is clearly shown in many of Grandma’s photos that the ladies of that era were quite as beautiful as today with no bottles of magic potions,- and at much less expense. How the times have changed. Hope you all enjoyed the Festival week end, and met with many old friends. Think clean – Be tidy.


Bricks

Mount Morgan Central State School Cross Country 3. Angelo Hayden

By Graeme Meade from Collectables and Memories on East Street

Some people will know more about this subject than me, but I am sure it will be of interest to others. When Mount Morgan was in its infant years, as a mine and town there were lots of timber and canvas buildings. In about 1885 the first brickworks was built in the mine site to build the “Lower Works”, some of that is still standing, as the Old Gold Room.

On Thursday 20 April Mount Morgan Central students were finally able to compete in their annual Cross country run, after having to post pone it last term due to Cyclone Debbie. Students ran a course around Mount Morgan before finishing up on the school oval.

Over the years more brickworks were built, including one only making fire bricks for the furnaces.

The Race is on!

Around the town today there are still lots of examples of Mount Morgan bricks, of course the famous Mount Morgan Stack is made from them. As well as the Assay Stack, the High School, the Mine Office, Church of England and the Masonic Hall. The walls around me, built in the late 1800s, could be, but they are unmarked. It is a testimony to the old pioneers and their skills that these buildings are still around today, over one hundred years later. If you come across a brick with “MMGMCo” stamped into it, treasure it, you have a real piece of Mount Morgan history.

QX20455 Private David Arthur Morgan

David Morgan, or Davie (as he was fondly known to all, or Taffee to some), was born in Mt Morgan on 13th September, 1915, son of Caradog and Isabella Morgan of Baree. He was the second eldest of 10 children, himself being the eldest son. He had a quiet personality but was often seen out and about with his side kick and best mate Bill Barnham. He enjoyed Tap Dancing, Riding and doing tricks on his motorbike, and playing both the Mouth Organ and Steel Guitar. Davie also represented Mt Morgan in Football. Apparently, he was quite a dandy and only wore Tailor Made Clothes with bell bottom pants, and always had his money knotted in a handkerchief. Throughout the early years of his adult life he worked as a Miner in the Mt Morgan Mine.

At the age of 25, Davie enlisted in the Army on the 26th June 1941, and he was posted as a Driver to 1st Company, 8th Division, Australian Army Service Corps. Only 6 months after enlisting, the attack on Pearl Harbour occurred on the 7th December, 1941, and the US and Australia, along with other Allies based throughout South East Asia, were at War with Japan. The Japanese swiftly conquered various nations throughout this region. Davie at this time, was based on the Malay Peninsula. The Allies were in a fight for their lives and had the added pressure, from the British to hold Singapore. Towards the end of 1941, veteran Japanese troops of the 25th Army landed in Northern Malaysia and pushed through the jungle terrain. The Allies, even though they had many more boots on the ground, were inexperienced and poorly equipped and were defeated by the end of January 1942. This defeat resulted in the Fall of Singapore on the 15th February 1942. Lieutenant General Arthur Percival, the British Commander in Singapore, called a ceasefire and had to make the difficult decision to surrender on this day. Although the Australian Troops were instructed to stay at their posts, General Bennett, the Commander of the AIF, and two of his staff officers controversially escaped from Singapore on the night of the surrender, eventually reaching Australia, but leaving behind more than 120,000 Allied troops. All of these soldiers became prisoners of war under the Japanese Rule and Davie was one of them. Back home in Mt Morgan, Davie’s family were told only that he was Missing in Action (MIA). It was a very long time before word reached them, that he was actually a POW. Since the Japanese Supply Ships, heading to Burma to supply their own forces were facing increased attacks by the Allied forces, the Japanese started building a land supply route for them to use. Because of this, Private David Arthur Morgan began his time as a POW working on the now infamous Thai-Burma Railway. After 17 months of murderous construction in the most appalling conditions with very little food or sleep, and fighting numerous tropical diseases, mother nature and brutal treatment from the Japanese and Korean Guards, plus conquering the Hell Fire Pass, this Railway was finally completed in December 1943. As for Davie, he sadly never saw the completed Railway or his home again. Although his exact cause of death remains unknown – with the rumours being it was either dysentery or a snake bite that sealed his fate – it is known that Private David Arthur Morgan lost his life somewhere along this track of railway on the 8th August 1943. His family and friends in Australia lost a loving son, brother, father and friend. This quiet man, but daredevil by nature was finally laid to rest at the Kanchanaburi War Cemetery in October 1945, alongside his mates, who all fought gallantly, side by side, to survive another day. This War Cemetery is now a popular tourist spot, located in the middle of the township of Kanchanaburi, situated a few kilometres from the Bridge over the River Kwai, in western Thailand. A quiet, surreal, but very well maintained memorial to all of those Aussies, along with those from many other nations, who gave their lives. (Credit must go to the Thai people who maintain this Memorial on a daily basis). We visited Uncle Davie’s grave site, on our recent visit to Thailand, and being one of many family members who have made this pilgrimage to honour this man and the fight he fought and the short life he lived, this visit was a complete honour and it formed a memory that we, ourselves will take to our graves. Davie is survived today by his sisters Jeanie Buckton, Dolly Buckton and Bebbie Hughes. But lives on in all of our hearts. “When you go home, tell them of us, and say we gave our tomorrow, for your today” QX20455 Private David Arthur Morgan Lest We Forget 13th September 1915 – 8th August 1943 Article & Photographs courtesy of Mandy Tremaine


ANZAC Commemorations

5.

Bouldercombe Dawn Service Mount Morgan ANZAC commemorations commenced with a Dawn Service at ANZAC Park where over fifty attended the event, to pay tribute to the brave men and women who gave their lives to preserve the freedom we enjoy today. Commemorations continued at 11.45am with the Annual ANZAC Day march along Morgan Street where Veterans and their families, Mt Morgan 5th Light Horse Regiment, primary and high school students, Child Care Groups and local organisation representatives, who marched were met with applause, cheers and smiles from over 200 locals and visitors who had lined the footpaths. The march continued along Morgan Street briefly stopping to take the Military Salute from Deputy Mayor Cherie Rutherford, down to ANZAC Park for the 11am service which was conducted by Mike Johnston. O/C 37th/42nd RQR Phillip Bell’s address to the captivated crowd reiforced the hardships, sacrifice and resilience that the Australian soldiers showed that day.

Keith Hare from Saint Mary’s Anglican Church presented the ANZAC Day Clergy Address, while Alula Camm and Kahlen Garrett from the Mount Morgan Central State School and Maddison Noonan and Jessica Grange from Mt Morgan High presented the School Leaders address.

After the haunting and emotional strains of the Last Post faded attendees came forward to solemnly place wreaths on the Cenotaph. For many in attendance, the day was about paying respects to the brave men and women they haven’t met. For others, it was a very personal affair with particular family members in mind. However all were there to show their respect and honour. The Bouldercombe Progress Association’s ANZAC Dawn Service was well supported as was the Breakfast following the Service.

Rodeo Roundup and Lindi Picnic Highlights

7.

See page 15 for a few extra photos of the Rodeo

The Mount Morgan Rodeo Association held the

Annual Rodeo on Sunday 30th April at Mount Morgan Showgrounds. “This rodeo is the only daytime rodeo left in Queensland” stated Colin Bell, who runs and organised the event on behalf of the Rodeo committee. “I have been coordinating this event for more years than I can count, but it just gets better each year, and this year was no exception” Mount Morgan has a long tradition of rodeo, recently discovered newspaper articles dating back to 1943 mention the outstanding success of the Mount Morgan Patriotic Rodeo held that year. The rodeo comittee would love to hear from anyone who has knowledge of those early years, as a celebration of the 75th Anniversary of Mount Morgan’s first rodeo would be a great chance to promote our little town to the rest of Queensland, (or maybe it’s even older??) The rodeo committee would like thank all who helped by way of sponsorship, donation, volunteering or by just being a spectator on Sunday, your participation is greatly appreciated and helped make the day a huge success. A more detailed overview of the day will be in the next issue of the Argus

The second annual Lindi Picnic Day held on Monday 1st May at the Mount Morgan Showgrounds was again a huge success thanks to all the volunteers and sponsors. The event is a commemoration of the original Lindi Picnics that were funded by weekly contributions taken from the pay packets of the Mount Morgan Mine workers. Attended by hundreds and sometimes thousands, the train took everyone down to Bell Park in Emu Park for a fun filled day. Even though our event is smaller, the crowd is still as enthusiastic with everyone happy and willing to have a go at the games and rides. This modern version is run by the local service clubs with the help of our local businesses and is completely free to all who attend. There were free rides and amusements, free sausage sizzle, free ice cream, free drinks, free lollies and most of all free smiles. The intention of the day is to thank the local community for all the support and good will shown throughout the year and to give the community a day where they don’t have to put their hands in their wallets for anything. Special thanks go to Rockhampton Regional Council for their generous donation of the Mount Morgan Showgrounds, to Carbine Resources for their handsome cheque and to all the volunteers who manned the stands and helped out on the day. A more detailed view of the day and list of sponsors will be in the next addition of the Argus.

Wildlife Matters By Trish Mathers - Phone 04005 91504

Recently we have had 2 joeys that have come to us from caring members of the public that had not been brought to us , as is usual, not long after they were found. The first one was an Eastern Grey that had been found on a rural property by a young man who was working away from home. He was unable to get it to us for a week. Thankfully he did a great job of looking after the joey by making him a cosy pouch, and giving him only water to lap and grass to eat. The joey was well hydrated and not scouring! Had he been given cows milk it would have been a completely different story. The joey would have been sick and scouring. Kangaroos and wallabies, as with most native animals, cannot tolerate cows milk, nor lactose. He has gone to a carer who has lots of these little grey kangaroos, and is drinking his special formula, and is very healthy. The second is a little Whiptail, or Pretty face, wallaby.

The people who found her had her in their care for about 24 hours. She had been given nothing to eat or drink, which in this case was also the right thing to do., being much smaller than the first joey meant that she has to have the exact amount of fluids per day and also she must be bottle fed. It is very easy for a young joey to inhale milk or water when they are drinking, and this leads to lung infections and very often the death of the animal. Thankfully in the second case the weather had cooled enough so this joey was not dehydrated. If ever you find yourself in this situation, the very most the animal should be given is a little boiled water, never milk, and only one drop at a time. Unless it is extremely hot, this is not usually necessary for up to 24 hours for a furred animal. They are better kept safe, warm and secure in a quiet place and handled as little as possible until you can get them to a vet or wildlife carer.

The sooner the better.... Unfurred animals however are a completely different kettle of fish, as they must be kept at the exact right temperature, fed often, and given the correct formula for their age and weight., and stage of development. The best place is down your shirt as a temporary solution until they can be handed to a wildlife carer.Do not attempt to feed them unless you have been given special training. All wildlife carers must do the training in order for that animal to be included on their permit. I recently read that one insurance company had received over 20,000 claims in the last 5 years for animal strikes, including kangaroos. An easy way to avoid being a stastistic is to install sonic devices to your car. They can be purchased for as little as $4, yep- four dollars, and are very easy to install, with the majority just having sticky tape on the back;....and yes they do work!

Local Group keeps on giving

Pictured - Judith Crane (President) Karissa (Rock) and Kathy Griffiths (Secretary) The Mount Morgan Cutter Social Club in association with the Grand Hotel have been extremely busy fundraising once again. It’s only been four weeks since they donated to the Mount Morgan Hospital and on Thursday President Judith Crane and Secretary Kathy Griffiths were pleased to donate $500 to the Rock Flood Appeal. The Rock employees have been very supportive of the flood relief efforts with the donation of water pumps to the State Emergency Service and supplying water bottles, lollies etc. to the volunteers. Karissa, the Personal Banking Manager of Bolsover Street Branch travelled to Mount Morgan for the presentation. “Thank you. This is Great” Karissa said on receiving the cheque.

Movie Review

Its been a while since I laughed out loud so hard and so often... I love the experience of visiting with the Flemings and Laird Mayhew and friends, witnessing the spectacularly disastrous culture clash that unfolds over a weekend in WHY HIM? In this raunchy, big-hearted, sweet and very, very funny film Ned Flemming (Bryan Cranston, BREAKING BAD) is a loving, devoted but overprotective dad who, with his family heads off to visit with his darling daughter at college. It is then that he comes face-toface with his greatest nightmare; her older, well-meaning but

socially maladjusted and awkward Silicon-valley-billionaire boyfriend, Laird Mayhew (James Franco, 127 HOURS). Ned’s panic level goes through the roof when he finds himself lost and unable to cope in this glamorous high-tech world, and when he learns that Laird is about to pop the question to his precious, one and only daughter, well Ned feels that he really must intervene. A rivalry develops... Stakes are high... Pretences are dropped... And the gloves come off. This is the ultimate battle of wits and wills in a no-holds-barred comedy from master of funny,

film-maker John Hamburg (MEET THE PARENTS, ZOOLANDER, ALONG CAME POLLY, I LOVE YOU MAN). The entire cast was great but a show-stealing, side-splitting turn from Keegan-Michael Key as Gustav (“Goose”) almost hurt me. WHY HIM is an hour and forty-five minutes I’d happily spend again, but beware... This one is definitely not for the littlies. It is rated MA for “strong, crude sexual humour and coarse language”. WHY HIM? Loved it!
