Information about the dating of this photograph was provided by the 'Ask A Librarian' service of the State Library of Victoria. The Scripture Referendum was held on the same day as the Victorian Parliamentary Elections, in which J. Bowser ran against A.K. Buckley for a seat in the legislative assembly in the electoral district of Wangaratta and Rutherglen. The Scripture Referendum had three questions: "1. Are you in favour of the Education Act remaining as at present, strictly secular? 2. Are you in favour of such legislation as shall cause the scheme of Scripture lessons recommended by the Royal Commission on Religious Instruction to be taught in State schools during school hours to children whose parents desire the teaching (such lessons would be given subject to a conscience clause exempting teachers who object)? 3. Are you in favour of the prayers and hymns selected by the Royal Commission being used?"

Spot and Ted Stabb became friends in the late 1980s during the days of the Department of Conservation, Forests and Lands (CFL). Rob Chalwell (ex-Bright Forests Commission) told Ted that Spot had been looking very sad and lonely in the front window of the Lands Department Office at Bright for some years. Ted then rescued Spot and gave him a new lease on life with a focus on State forests, recreation, bushfires, planned burns, office openings, statewide videoconferences and similar gala events (invited or not). Spot enjoyed many adventures and travels with Ted over the next 35 years or so, and became very popular and well known, particularly in northeastern Victoria. But not everyone liked or appreciated Spot, and one Departmental Secretary, who has long since been forgotten, even referred to him as “That Dog”. But the locals ignored the rudeness and Spot stayed. And outside work, Spot was also known to be active in his local community. He even had a social and political conscience and was occasionally seen trying to influence the way we vote. On Friday 13th November 2025, Ted finally, and somewhat reluctantly, retired from the Department after a very long and distinguished career as a forester. And while Spot would have liked to go home with Ted – which he did during Covid lockdown and for the duration of the Wodonga office refurbishments – Ted has a fairly small house and backyard, and Spot is a big dog that needs space to run. Besides, Spot was not under any pressure to leave the department like other oldies, because he is not paid a salary, doesn’t need a computer or desk space and has no large credit of unused sick leave. Pleasingly, Aaron Kennedy, the Deputy Chief Fire Officer for Hume Region, promised to give Spot a bit of a spruce up and find an appropriate place for him in the Benalla Office, rather than the dusty museum at Altona. He has also assured Ted that Spot will never end up in the dumpster or standing in a lonely window again. But the staff objected to Spot’s transfer to Benalla, so he stayed in Wodonga. Allegedly for his own protection he has been placed in a Perspex display case at the front of the office, where he keeps a watchful eye on staff and visitors.

Joynt was the seventh member of the newly formed Legacy in 1923 and became a member of the Board of Management in 1924 and worked closely with Stan Savige. He was also instrumental in gaining the support of both General Sir John Monash and the R.S.L. to build the Shrine of Remembrance, as well as ensuring media backing and thus public support for the project. He worked tirelessly for Legacy for 38 years until he retired at the age of 84, and entered fully into comradeship activities throughout his involvement. He won his VC in 1917 at Chuignes during one of the last battles on the Somme. The Victoria Cross is the highest award for acts of bravery in wartime and was instituted in 1856 by Queen Victoria.

p.145.non-fictionWhy did the Suez War ever come to pass? Why did Eden, against public opinion and without sufficient military capability, decide to invade Egypt? When Gamal Abdel Nasser decided to nationalize the Suez Canal, Britain and France reacted dramatically, beginning a chain of events that ultimately led to war. But why did Nasser nationalize the canal in the first place? And what part did the United States of America play in sparking the conflict that resulted in war? Paul Johnson skillfully and clearly explains the roots of the war, the many different political factors involved, the resultant invasion and its repercussions. First published in 1957, The Suez War walks us through a conflict that many historians feel should never have taken place, and one that Johnson argues has exposed i(t)he real weakness of Britain i never again can we play our unique and honourable role as keeper of the worlds conscience.suez crisis - 1956, united kingdom - foreign relations - egypt
