  • 25 Sep 1922: A NEW BUSINESS VENTURE. The New Wattle Tea Rooms.
    A house of beauty and business has taken the place of the piece of land so long vacant in Fryers Street next to James Fairleys emporium. This is the Wattle Tea-Rooms of Mr. Matthew Paternoster (late of Tatura), whose experience in business concerns has been wide and successful. What he has established now in this town will supply a long felt necessity, and everybody who visits the establishment will readily notice how well he has done matters—everything in first-class, up-to-date style. For several weeks past this elegant building has been progressing towards completion, the builder being Mr. W. E. Richardson, of Welsford Street; and finality was reached on Saturday last sufficiently to enable its being thrown open to the public. And the public availed itself of the opportunity to an extent that must have been very gratifying to Mr. Paternoster, for during the afternoon the rooms
    were crowded. Many had to wait outside before they could secure entrance, while good business was also done during the evening. The fact that so many had to wait was only an initial disability that will soon be overcome, for the management intends to leave nothing undone that will lend to the convenience and comfort of its patrons.
    An outside view of the building is very striking because of its architectural features, with the windows, each 9 ft. in length; harmonising aesthetically with the surroundings. The top portion consists of lead lights; the fittings are of the latest improved style; and with cakes and confectionery, fancy chocolate boxes and other articles in artistic array in those windows, one almost feels an involuntary push from behind to go inside the tea rooms. Very well; that cannot be helped in such circumstances. And what do you behold? First of all, two shop counters with oilcloth tops, and two Dayton computing scales, while against the walls are shelves well laden with necessaries and luxuries.
    This department is under the assistant manageress, Miss A. Huggard. Then the visitor enters the main portion of the building—the tea rooms, so bright and airy, and so calculated to give zest to the appetite. There are 14 tables, each with a fancy cover and each having in
    the centre a small vase containing wattle sprays. New chairs are round those tables, on the walls are three large mirrors, six smaller ones and six hat racks with the light yellow tinting of the walls producing a happy effect. The waitresses are four in number, all in uniform costume, to represent the wattle and the lady in charge is Mrs Paternoster.
    In the further portion of the building it is quite a pleasure to witness what has been achieved. To commence with the kitchen with hot and cold water services laid on with its array of brand new cups, saucers and plates (white and gold) and all necessary appurtenances. A few steps further back and you come to the combined cake and sponge making machine driven by motor and the electric ice cream freezer on a concrete floor. Another step and you enter the bakehouse, for everything is baked on the premises under strictly hygienic principles. And from the bakehouse and the kitchen there is a private
    side passage leading to the tea rooms to enable pies and other good things to be served hot and appetisingly. Mr Paternoster intends to make still further improve ments and before very long he will be installing a soda fountain. Matthew Paternoster, Alice Sophie Alma Huggard10
  • 19 Oct 1922: The death of Mrs. Mary Jane Paternoster (wife of Mr. M. Paternoster) at their residence, “Trustin,” Wyndham Street, on Tuesday, at about 11.30 p.m. came as a great shock to her many friends. She had been ailing only a week, and being of a strong and healthy constitution, it was thought that she would recover in good time. But more serious symptoms set in a few days ago; the efforts of two local doctors and a trained nurse from Melbourne proved unavailing, and it was seen on Tuesday afternoon that Mrs. Paternoster was sinking. She was the daughter of the late Mr. George and Mrs. Harriet McNabb, formerly of Kialla, and latterly of Shepparton; her father died 20 years ago, and her mother just six months ago at Elsternwick, where she had gone for a holiday. Mrs. Paternoster was born at Tylden (near Kyneton); she was 58 years of age, and was well known in the district, and particularly at Tatura, from where she and her husband came about six months ago, to ultimately open the Wattle Tea Rooms, in Fryers Street.
    She leaves no family. Mrs. Paternoster was a lady of a bright and generous disposition. During her brief existence in this town she became very popular—a continuance of the popularity which she gained in Tatura and the surrounding country. With her two of her nieces had resided for many years—the Misses Alma Huggard and Mary M’Nabb.
    The funeral took place this afternoon, the service being conducted by the Rev. Geo. Paul, while the mortuary arrangements were attended to by Mr. T. J. Kittle.11
  • 12 Dec 1922: Mary Jane Paternoster, of Shepparton who died intestate on October 17, left real estate of a gross value of £2,025, and personal property of a gross value of £3,373, which will be shared by her next of kin, husband and relatives.12
