From The Moora Herald and Midland Districts Advocate newspaper, Friday 24 January 1919:
Three Springs
"The good old stork came along rather unexpectedly and left a fine bouncing baby boy for our old friend Paddy Howard. This makes Paddy's ninth and sets a good example that might be well followed by the district generally, more especially when one considers the shortage of farm hands."


From The Moora Herald and Midland Districts Advocate newspaper, Friday 31 January 1919:
An Infant's Death
