The accompanying photo shows one such group putting the finishing touches to play boxes for the Mulwala Preschool. These boxes will be delivered on Wednesday, November 10. Such is the interest of members, the committee was asked if the shed could be opened on Friday mornings in addition to Wednesday mornings. As a trial this was complied with last Friday and as a result six men were able to continue to work on their projects. Should more men be interested on a Friday opening then Wednesday and Friday mornings could become permanent. All members are reminded the annual AGM is to be held at the Rowing Club on Wednesday, November 17. A notice has been forwarded to all members together with nomination forms as on the day all positions on the committee will become vacant, so fill in your nomination and come along and vote for your candidate. Tea, coffee and biscuits are available. One last message to men Men’s Shed members putting the finishing touches to play boxes for the Mulwala Preschool.

masonic musings
Masonic Musings
Our meeting of Wednesday, and I must make mention November 3 fulfilled our ex- of some of those people. We operated on the ‘mempectations. The attendance was excellent and the Wodonga Re-enactment Team, led by Barry Hazeldine, gave us much pleasure and something to think about, particularly as November is to many of us a time of remembrance. This reenactment is the story of the selection of the British Unknown Soldier from the war graves of France and the transportation of the body to England and the subsequent burial in Westminster Abbey in 1920. The re-enactment is not new to our area but the Wodonga group has added a visual interpretation which gives the show a great lift. They have also added a segment covering the entombment of Australia’s Unknown Soldier at the National Memorial in Canberra. The show itself and the ability and deportment of those involved, is worthy of a wider audience than we at 103 can accommodate and could be of value to many students. We were forced to limit our number of guests, but on the other hand, it is nice to be put in such a position. We thank most sincerely, not just the visiting team, but those who helped make the evening so successful
bers a plate’ system and the tables were well supplied but I must express special thanks to Elaine Whelan and Helen Pleming for their great support, and to John Thomson for his continuing assistance. Also a big thank you to Brian Bouchier for the loan of a casket. Some time back I spoke to Brian and asked a favour. I said, “I want to borrow a coffin.” His reaction was rather hilarious and I had to do some explaining. But it all ended well with Brian not only providing a casket but transporting it to and from the Lodge. In return we allowed him to attend the show and gave him an extra lamington for supper. I was impressed by the number of war medals being worn by a goodly number of our members and guests, and with the ability of the Secretary of Marmoo Lodge which meets at Stawell, who was given the task of responding to our toast to our visitors. It was a good occasion, well worth the frustrating periods that are often encountered by the programming of such events. My hearty good wishes to all. Cheers, Stan Clarke WM 103
