The Office Bearers listed quite a few local luminaries who were very prevalent in community activity during this era. Notables included J A K Shaw, H L White, M C Campbell, G M Campbell and A F ‘Advocate’ Smith. J A K Shaw lived in my house ‘Geraldton’ at this time. He was also Judge for the Australian Jockey Club (AJC) at Randwick. Sadly he passed away only two years later (1920).
