Excellent!

He established Bushman's Bible and portraiture prize What do Australia's most famous portrait prize, the now-defunct Bulletin magazine, and Hyde Park fountain in the heart of Sydney all have in common? They were all made possible thanks to the work of a man named Archibald. John Feltham Archibald was a child of the goldfields. His mother died when he was four years old so his aunt raised him and he went to school while his father prospected for gold. By 14 years old he was apprenticed to the Warrnambool Examiner and worked towards his goal of becoming a journalist. He was, however, too shy to submit his articles to his own paper so he sent them to others. By 18 years old he moved to Melbourne and it was here he developed a fascination for French culture. He decided to change his name to Jules Francois Archibald. It was the name he would keep for the rest of his life. After working as a clerk in rural Queensland, Jules made his way to Sydney and picked up employment as a clerk with the Evening News. This was the platform he needed to work his way up to the status of a reporter. Then in 1880, at the age of 24, Jules and another journalist John Haynes, started up the magazine that would become the mouthpiece for rural Australia and nicknamed the Bushman's Bible, the stage for new Australian literary talent, including Henry Lawson and Banjo Paterson, and a discussion panel for issues of the day. It was called The Bulletin and its first publication came out on 31 January 1880 and sold out. The Bulletin became highly influential in Australian culture and politics. It was Australia's longest-running magazine publication until the final issue was published in January 2008. Jules and John even faced some jail time due to a libel suit brought against the magazine for its biting comments. On his only trip to England, Jules met and fell in love with Rosa Frankenstein. She followed him back to Sydney and they married in 1885. It was not the happiest of marriages as they lost their only child and Rosa turned to drink. Jules was already suffering bouts of depression and this caused him to worry about her continuously. In 1902 he finally handed over the editorship of The Bulletin and decided to launch a monthly offshoot called the Lone Hand. His sickness became obvious by 1906 when he started overpaying journalists and ordered absurd quantities of wine for the launch of the magazine. He was checked into Callan Park Asylum where he was discharged then re-admitted and stayed until 1910. He continued to write poetry and occasionally fiction, some of which got published in the Lone Hand which finished publication in 1907. In his will, Jules left money for a fountain that was built in Hyde Park, Sydney, and a bequest for a portraiture prize to encourage his love of art. It became known as the Archibald prize and still runs today through the Art Gallery of NSW. Jules Francois Archibald died on 10 September 1919 and is buried at Waverley Cemetery.

Wynnum Ambulance Station is a heritage-listed museum and former ambulance station at 33 Tingal Road, Wynnum, City of Brisbane, Queensland, Australia. It was built from 1926 to 1927. It is also known as the Queensland Ambulance Museum and the QATB Station. It was added to the Queensland Heritage Register on 26 March 1999.[1] It is open by appointment. The City Ambulance Transport Brigade (CATB) was formed at a meeting of concerned citizens in September 1892 following the unsatisfactory management of an accident at a horse racing meeting. It was established that the principal object of the Brigade was to render first aid to the wounded and transport the sick and injured to hospital. Headquarters were established in the Courier Building (cnr Queen and Edward Streets, Brisbane). This was the first ambulance service in the world to employ paid staff.[1] Public use of the ambulance service steadily increased and voluntary subscriptions proved insufficient to meet associated outlays. In 1895 the CATB secured supplementary funding with the Queensland State Government agreeing to provide a 1:1 subsidy against subscriptions.[1] The first purpose-built ambulance building for Queensland was constructed in 1897 in Wharf Street, Brisbane. This building established the precedent for subsequent ambulance station designs. The design incorporated a two-storeyed building housing plant and staff facilities at ground level and a residence on the upper level. Large ground floor openings with bi-fold doors allowed ready access directly to the street for quick exit of horse and sulky. Source: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wynnum_Ambulance_Station
