Dear Monument Australia visitors, we are a self-funded, non-profit organisation, dedicated to recording monuments throughout Australia. Over time the costs of maintaining this website have risen substantially (in fact they are probably larger than those of many companies who exist for profit). In the past we have borne all the costs associated with maintaining the website but we are now having difficulties in paying the monthly expenses.
If Monument Australia is useful to you, please make a donation to keep this historical and educational resource available. Your help would be greatly appreciated.

Traveston & Tandur Progress Association Honour Board Print Page 
The honour roll commemorates those who served in World War One.
Honour Board — There was a very large attendance in the Traveston School last Saturday night, on the occasion of the unveiling of the honour board erected by the Traveston and Tandur Progress Associations, in honour of the local boys now at the front. The evening was spent in dancing, and during an interval Messrs. J. Moore and J. Twoomey addressed those present. An apology was tendered for Mr. and Mrs. H. F. Walker who were to have been present, but were detained in Gympie.
In the absence of Mrs. Walker who was to have unveiled the board, Miss McVicar performed that duty. Cheers were called for the boys at the front. The board is a very neat piece of furniture, in carved maple, and has inscribed upon it the words, " Traveston and Tandur Progress Association Honour Board," followed by the following names :— Lieut. J. H. McDonald. Privates C Greenshields, F. B. Stark, W McVicar, J.McVicar, W. McLean, Bugler K. G. Gibbs and Driver G. Smiley.
