WE’LL FIX YOUR FUZZIES!

Being an ex-serviceman I always take notice of the various commemorative tablets which are commonplace throughout this area. I have seen WWI described as the Great War, the Great European War, the 1914-18 War, the 1914-19 War and, of course, World War I but the tablet at Bogong Lodge which carries the names of six members, refers to that War as the Great Enterprise. Since visiting Bogong Lodge I have been to Moyhu Valley Lodge at Moyhu, a much easier drive than the run to Yackandandah. Moyhu Valley members have an interest in things markedly different to those of the Murray Valley area. The members of Moyhu Valley take a keen interest in mountainous areas such as the Wonangatta Valley up in the high country, and assist in the restoration of mountain huts and things of that nature; yet, a bottle of red that I won in the raffle came from Bullers of Rutherglen. Only a ‘silly old bugger’ like me would notice a thing like that.

Masonic Musings There has been two Bogong Lodges at Yackandandah; the first Bogong No. 1370 English Constitution opened in 1871 but closed in 1979, and the second Bogong Lodge opened in 1904 which is still going strong. The Moyhu Valley Lodge opened in 1954. The Myrtleford Lodge opened in 1912 and should be the scene of my next Masonic visit. The lodge premises at Myrtleford are modern and, to me, lack that feeling of graciousness found in many of the old lodges, but the good fellowship is as evident there as elsewhere. Enjoyed our Vacant Chair ceremony and associated activities last week. The evening was enhanced by the singing of that local trio Cebelia. My thanks to all who assisted in making that evening such a pleasurable event with a special mention of Mr Smooth from Yackandandah, or Colin Watson as he prefers to be known. Also present that evening were two golfing identities, one who recently picked up his ball after ten shots in a bunker and still expects his handicap to be increased, and the other, an 86 year old who won the ‘pot’ on the same course on that same day. Welcome to Masonic Musings Barry and Denis; guess who won the ‘pot’? Cheers, Stan Clarke WM 103

On Monday evening April 11 fire fighters from the Mulwala Fire Station attended the Mulwala Retirement Lifestyle Village and changed all the alkaline batteries in the residents’ smoke alarms. If your smoke alarm has a removable alkaline battery it should be replaced once a year which is normally carried out at the end of daylight saving.

“With the end of daylight saving it is a timely reminder for people to replace the batteries in their smoke alarms,” Mulwala Fire Brigade captain Vin Slattery said. “It is so important to have a working smoke alarm. It is a proven fact that smoke alarms save lives in a fire situation.” The residents at the retirement village were very appreciative of the fire fighters replacing the batteries and check-

ing their smoke alarms were in working order. The new batteries were supplied by Duracell and NSW Fire and Rescue. For further information on smoke alarms please visit the New South Wales Fire & Rescue website at www.fire. nsw.gov.au or contact Mulwala Fire Station on 57441967.

Retained Fire Fighter Matt Jarrad changing batteries for smoke alarm with Manager Liz Cook from Mulwala Lifestyle Village and Fire Fighter Adam Thomson looking on. art
