Rainbow Fair - 1925


The Cumberland Argus and Fruitgrowers Advocate, Friday 6 November 1925

Rainbow Fair
Brilliant Color Effect

The grounds of the Auburn Catholic Church, on Wednesday evening, were bathed in the light shed from hundreds of electric globes of all colors of the rainbow. Termed the "rainbow” fair on this account, the function was an immediate success from the moment it was declared open by Very Reverend Monsignor O’Gorman, P.P. Stalls were dotted around the grounds of the church, and were well patronised by the large attendance. Among those present were Rev. Father Byrne, the Mayor of Auburn (Alderman Gollan), Father Heffernan, Mr. H.G. Bartlett (Treasurer), Miss Rita Cussen, Mr. P. Wilson, Messrs. Jupp, Beaumont, Arandale, Taylor, N. Wade, Davies, Halls, Hayes, Burke, and Smith.
