Our handcrafted, custom made Red Gum timber furniture and homewares allow you luxury with peace of mind. Nestled on the banks of the King River in Oxley North East Victoria, Brangie is a third generation family owned & run 200 acre property. 100 acres of the property lies on the floodplains bounded by the Hurdle Creek & the King River. As this area is regularly inundated with water it remains undeveloped & boasts one of the few remnant old growth Red Gum forests of this area. Over the years of cyclical drought & floods, many of these hundreds year old majestic giants have fallen & died. This natural attrition however provided the nucleus for the ultimate in sustainably produced Red Gum timber furniture. A new lease of life befitting of these regal giants of the river plains and beautiful Red Gum timber furniture that doesn’t harm the earth. Brangie has a healthy and diverse ecosystem that we wish to protect and preserve for future generations to cherish and enjoy.

We leave existing habitat undisturbed providing sanctuary for native animals including kangaroos, wallabies, wombats, echidnas, possums, echidnas, lizards, frogs, fish, turtles, platypus, Rakali (water rat), snakes and innumerable bird species. This includes timber that falls into/onto the waterways providing shelter for fish, turtles & water rats and fallen & standing timber with natural hollows for lizards, snakes, birds & possums. Milling Services – Our portable Lucas Mill can mill trees on site. If you have your own timber that you would like milled, or if you wish to purchase some raw slabs/roots to make your own fabulous creations, we can help you.

The Grapevine 28th October 2016 Edition 20 3 St Joseph’s Primary School THE CHILTERN POP CHOIR – FABULOUS! I know that our students are very clever and extremely talented, but when I heard the Chiltern Pop choir sing on Saturday night, I was overwhelmed. Many of the members of the choir are from St Joseph’s, with several members attend other schools. Together the children sounded amazing. The Chiltern Pop Choir entertained and enthralled us all. A special mention needs to be made of Whittaker whose fantastic male voice worked beautifully with the younger voices of the children. Congratulations to Julie Taylor and Jessica Zuber, who have nurtured and encouraged these talented young people for some time now. I would like to thank them for their time, talent and enthusiasm. The children are very fortunate to have this opportunity in their town. The Pop Choir will continue next year. If you missed the performance on Saturday, you can catch the group at the Chiltern Carols by Candlelight.

We have raised just over $4000 which will go towards our savings for a new playground in our wonderful school. This day would not be possible if not for the tremendous amount of work completed by many people behind the scenes, and on the day itself. We would like to thank everyone who donated goods to be sold on the day, to the girl guides for their work, The Wodonga Toy Library, Val Chenoweth for the delicious fairy floss and very importantly Erin and Andrew of Overtime Duo for their wonderful entertainment. We also must mention the “Many Hands Make Light Work ‘crew’ of staff, parents and grandparents who set up, sold items and packed up so proficiently, and the Chiltern Community for supporting the school by attending and having fun, food and festivities! We would like to thank Heather and John Payne, for their tireless work in the lead up to our wonderful day. We would also like to thank the Indigo Shire for their approval to use the park and their assistance with closing off the car park.

The Grapevine 28th October 2016 Edition 20 9 The Grapevine 28th October 2016 Edition 20 10 Another Yarn from Chiltern Spinners Rutherglen Show a huge success When some other North East agricultural shows faced difficult weather conditions and had to be rescheduled it was great to see our local show go ahead on the planned day. Thanks to the wonderful cooperation of the show committee space was provided in the pavilion for all day spinning demonstrations. Up to 8 spinners worked away at their craft and chatted to the public. There was a great deal of interest in various aspects of the craft from the fibre itself to the mechanics of the various wheels. Joy Bloomer set up a display of spinning equipment to show the stages from raw fleece to a finished article. Thank you to all our members for promoting our group. The number of entries in the spinning and weaving sections increased again this year. The standard was excellent and the champion award for the best overall entry was awarded to a handspun skein crafted by Sandy Thornhill-Cole. At the 2015 Rutherglen Show a merino fleece was generously donated to Chiltern and Wangaratta Spinning groups and on show day this year Leigh Southwell from Wangaratta brought along for the donor of that fleece a handspun and knitted beanie and scarf, both beautifully crafted. Once again this year a merino fleece was generously donated to Chiltern Spinners in appreciation for their contribution to the success of the show. This will be shared out to members at our next meeting.. CWA CHAT Sadly, we have once again lost one of our former members, Vera Gehrig, who only left CWA last year after 50 years of service. Vera had been secretary, president and our NE Group President , and was very good with flower arranging, and an excellent cook. We have already been missing her for a year and will continue to miss her. This month a long list of items have been taken to the "Angels of the Forgotten" (to provide children/youth in crisis - homeless or entering Foster Care, with Crisis Care Packages). Knitted: care bears; adult beanies with matching scarves; children's beanies and a hat; more beanies, scarves; 5 teggies (baby comforters); sewing: 4 small bags and 2 large bags - to hold items; 8 bag tags; baby change pad; 10 drawstring bags. books and notepads, and 2 crocheted baby rugs. These are always gratefully received. As our AGM is on 7th November at 10am, our secretaryelect is Judy Russell, and Judy will take over doing the "Chat".

Cost $15 per person for Bowls and Lunch VISITORS WELCOME The Grapevine 28th October 2016 Edition 20 11 FOX CONTROL PROGRAM 2016 Parks Victoria will be conducting an ongoing fox control program in the Chiltern - Mt Pilot National Park during October - December 2016 The aim of the project is to reduce fox numbers throughout the Chiltern-Mt Pilot National Park for the protection of native wildlife. The introduced Red Fox has been identified as a major threat to the survival of the Brush-tailed Phascogale and is likely to compete for resources with the Spot-tailed Quoll. Both of these threatened species are known to the Chiltern-Mt Pilot area. The poisoning component is targeted exclusively at foxes. Safeguards have been incorporated into the program to ensure that native wildlife is not affected. 1080 Fox - Off baits will be laid in the Chiltern-Mt Pilot National Park during the period 24th October to 23rd December 2016 Pet owners must be aware that their pets may be at risk if wandering in the park. Therefore we ask for our neighbour’s co-operation in keeping all pets confined within their property boundaries as legally required. For further enquiries contact Parks Victoria Beechworth 03 84272022 AUSTRALIAN RED CROSS According to the Red Cross World Disasters Report 2016, released recently, disasters killed 32,550 people in 2015, affected 108 million more and cost the world $92.5 billion. As a global community, we don't cope with disasters very well. We spend too much on clean up and recovery because we spend nowhere near enough on prevention or mitigation. Last year's natural disasters cost Australia at least $9 billion, according to research commissioned by the Australian Business Roundtable for Disaster Resilience and Safer Communities. That's expected to double by 2030 and reach $33 billion per year by 2050. Yet we spent barely $50 million to prepare for these disasters, even though we could see them coming. Let's keep talking about disaster preparation and resilience. Preparing for a flood, fire or hazard should be embedded in our culture, as commonplace as wearing a seat belt in a car. Natural disasters are increasing in scale and frequency, compounded by a changing climate. Without smarter ways to reduce risk, they'll soon cost far more than our country can bear. Let's invest, today, in a safer future for tomorrow. Emergency team members have been training over the winter to be prepared to deal with whatever emergencies may occur. In this area we tend to concentrate on the dangers of bushfires. However, windstorms can cause great destruction, and heatwaves cause more death across the country than any other emergency. Are you prepared? There are 4 simple steps • learn about the risks you face and how they might affect you • make an emergency survival kit to help you through a disaster • take action now to protect the important things in life • create your personal emergency plan to help you when disaster strikes. People who plan cope much better than those who do not. Members please note that the next meeting of the Chiltern Branch will be at 7pm on Monday 7th November in the Courthouse.

PHONE 0403031357 The Grapevine 28th October 2016 Edition 20 15 FEDERAL STANDARD SNIPPETS October 1876 – A meeting of the Chiltern Boating Club was held on Thursday evening at the Town Hall. It was resolved that on the 9 th November, Chiltern Miners’ Sports Day, the boats should be let to the public at so much per head, and a boatsman hired to take charge of that particular day. We may mention that matters are progressing favorably in the boat builders’ yard, the boats having been completed and now undergoing the process of painting. Mr Holman has the oars and skulls in hand and confidently assures us all will be handed over to the club on the contract day. October 1886 – Joseph William Boucher married Clara Louisa Williamson at St Paul’s Church of England on 27th October 1886 in a service read by Rev Thomas Moorhouse and witnessed by Roland Boucher and Ethel Williamson nee Wentworth (Clara’s aunt). October 23, 1896 – On Wednesday evening the dwelling house of Mr John Bergin, mining manager at Chiltern Valley No.2 was destroyed by fire. The furniture in the front room was partly saved, also some bedding. Mrs Bergin was in the front portion of the house, and returning in the direction of the kitchen found the place in flames. Several men engaged in working at the air shaft of the mine assisted in extinguishing the fire, and in rescuing household goods. There was an insurance of £200 in the Manchester Insurance Company, but this will not cover the damage done. October 23, 1896 – At the conclusion of the presentation to the Rev Father Gaffey at the local RC Presbytery on Monday evening, the Rev Father O’Connor mentioned that the monument to the late Rev Father Carr had been completed and was now erected over his grave in the Chiltern New Cemetery, and was a credit to the people of the district who had subscribed to the cost. October 19, 1906 - It is with sincere regret that we have to record the death of Mrs O’Neill, relict of the late John O’Neill of “Armadale”, Main Street, Chiltern, which sad event occurred at her residence, on Monday morning. The deceased lady contracted influenza about a week before and up till Sunday night there was nothing to indicate that her condition was critical or that the end was so near. Heart failure was the immediate cause of death, the patient passing peacefully away about 5.30 am. Mrs O’Neill was a native of Armagh (Ireland) and sixty-five years of age, over forty of which had been spent in Chiltern. On Tuesday morning her remains were taken in a silver -mounted cedar and oaken coffin to St Mary’s RC Church where a Requiem Mass for the repose of her soul was celebrated by the Rev Father Hogan PP. The members of the family left to mourn their loss are Mrs Doolan, wife of Mr Thos Doolan, of Brown’s Plains; Mrs Quinlan, wife of Mr P Quinlan, of the NSW railway department, Sydney; Miss Catherine O’Neill, and Messrs Thos, Henry, Charles and Paul O’Neill, Chiltern, with whom the sincerest sympathy is felt in their sad deprivation. October 19, 1906 - Mr George Sanders, sanitary contractor, of Chiltern, was felling a tree on Thursday of last week when a falling branch caught him across the chest and pinned him to a log. He lay in that position for an hour or so before he could free himself and when he had accomplished the difficult and painful task repaired home. He had to keep to his bed for a couple of days but appears now none the worse for his unpleasant experience. October 19, 1906 - Last Sunday, Mr Lin Wilson, of Chiltern, and his cousin, Miss Flo Scowcroft, of Melbourne, narrowly escaped being drowned in the Indigo Creek near Chambers’ Barnawartha. They had to cross the creek to reach “Willowgrove” and while doing so over the old crossing the horse’s front feet got into a deep hole that had been caused by flood waters, and he went under. With difficulty he got out on to safer bottom but the sulky made a drop into the hole and just escaped being overturned. The affrighted horse declined to move for a time but eventually drew the vehicle out. The occupants, who were drenched through, succeeded in obtaining changes of clothing at a friends’ place and the journey home was negotiated without further mishap. The Grapevine 28th October 2016 Edition 20 16 October 19, 1906 - Through participating in a hearty meal of ox tongue on Sunday Mrs Fred Booth, of Chiltern, developed serious symptoms which were subsequently believed to be those of ptomaine poisoning. It was Tuesday before she regained her apparent usual state of health, but is now herself again. October 26, 1906 - A great deal of regret was manifested amongst the residents of Chiltern yesterday morning when it became known that Mrs McIntyre, wife of Mr Chas C McIntyre, had succumbed after having the previous day survived a trying operations which had been performed by Drs Harkin of Chiltern and Schlink of Wodonga. Deceased had only been ill for a few days from an internal complaint – peritonitis – and as serious symptoms began to show it was resolved after consultation that the only way in which the life of the patient could be saved was by operation. The operation was skilfully performed on Wednesday morning and she appeared to be doing well, having come out of the anaesthetic splendidly but about three o’clock yesterday morning she collapsed. Deceased was a native of Chiltern, and one who was highly esteemed. She leaves a husband and seven children, the youngest being a baby about four months old, for whom the deepest regret is extended, to mourn their loss. Deceased was in past years a member of St Mary’s RC choir, a member of the St Joseph’s dramatic club and in the best of her years, was foremost at any bazaar or function in aid of the church. Mrs McIntyre was a daughter of Mrs Keller and sister of Mr E A Keller and Mrs C L Hill, both of Chiltern. October 20, 1916 - While driving to the Chiltern Railway station on Monday morning to catch the train, Messrs L Aitken and Alf Kneebone and Miss Ada Kneebone had a sensational experience. They were crossing the Black Dog Creek, on the Barambogie road., when one of the wheels of the vehicle dropped into a deep rut, causing the gig to capsize, with the result that the occupants were thrown into the creek, which at the time contained a couple of feet of water. The two young fellows were on their way to go into camp, and all their belongings were thrown into the stream. After getting out of the water they had some difficulty in rescuing their property and when they had again assembled on the bank they all presented a sorry spectacle. They received a thorough soaking, and had to return home for a change of clothing. Fortunately, none of them was injured. This is a very dangerous crossing, especially at flood time, and it would be well for the Chiltern Shire Council to have it attended to before a more serious, or perhaps fatal, accident occurs. October 20, 1916 - A pet kangaroo, which Mrs J Enright, of Chiltern, reared and hand kept for several years, was, a few days ago, presented by her to the Melbourne Zoological Gardens. October 20, 1916 - With the approach of summer snakes are beginning to make their appearance. A reptile, measuring about 3ft 6in was despatched in the Chiltern Park last week, and another was killed by Mr R Daglish in the garden of the Presbyterian Manse in Victoria Street. October 22, 1926 - After suffering for some time from an affection of the larynx Mr William James Clayton of Middle Indigo Road, Barnawartha, died at the Wangaratta Hospital on Sunday. He had been receiving attention at his home, but as his complaint became more acute his removal to the hospital was advised in order that he should receive special nursing. About a fortnight previous to his demise he became an inmate of the institution for the second time, but being much weakened by continuous sickness little hope was entertained for his recovery, and he died as stated. Mr Clayton was a native of Barnawartha, 60 years of age, and carried on farming and fruit growing pursuits. He was an industrious man and by dint of hard work and perseverance did well and made his property an object lesson for others. He never aspired to public honors, but took a lively and keen interest in politics and many local affairs. He was a member of the Standish (Chiltern) Lodge of Freemasons. His remains were taken to Barnawartha by motor hearse on Monday for interment in the Church of England portion of the cemetery, where there was a large and representative gathering of local and Chiltern friends of deceased. The services were conducted in an impressive manner by Rev C T Rodda, and those of the Masonic order by Bro. A L Gilmour. Deceased leaves a widow and family of three sons (Jack, William and Richard) and three daughters (Misses Molly, Lucy and Amy).
