Mrs May HEADS

Resided on farmland in Three Springs 1913-1921 ^{[19] [50]}
Doorwoman at the Westralia Red Cross Day Basket Social & Dance held at the Agricultural Hall in Three Springs on 30 July 1915 ^[10]
     The Dance raised funds for the Red Cross and she persuaded many to part with more than the required admission fee ^[10]
     She also donated poultry and a cushions to be sold during the evening, the proceeds all going to the Red Cross ^[10]
     During the evening she purchased a donated bag of wheat for 20/- however donated it back so it could be sold again ^{[10: 6-Aug-1915]}
In September 1915 she won a large Talbot motor car in a State wide raffle conducted by the Red Cross Society ^{[10: 1-Oct-1915]}
     Although delighted she realised such a car could not be used about a farm like an ordinary sulky, so decided to re-raffle the car ^[10]
