This is part 2, carried on from last week. 

Punctually at 2 p.m., the procession was marshalled by Lieut-Col. H. Paul in William Street, in front of King’s Parade and headed by mounted troopers and the Bathurst District Band, proceeding on its route via Keppel, George, Howick and William Streets.

The streets and footpaths were lined with people who were keenly interested in the comicalities of the Commercial Travellers’ display which, with the exception of a few local turnouts, practically constituted the composition of the procession.

Following the band was the Fire Brigade’s pumping engine in charge of Mr. Gunnee (officer-in-charge) on the top of which was Mr. J. Shultz dressed as a huge green frog hopped about on the rungs of the ladders with the agility of a cat. 

Then followed the Travellers’ display, the characters in which were represented by H.J. Weeden (Chinese), L. Wilcox (cowboy), L. Levy, A. Shay and J. Adeison (boy scouts), K.H. Jones (Mexican), D.

They were followed by Mr. B. Elliott’s stage coach drawn by four horses, Messrs. Mockler Bros’ motor lorry representing ‘Goldenia Tea’ and followed by two other motor lorries of the same firm, a model aeroplane propelled by local boy scouts and followed by a small squad of scouts, looked very good.

Several business turnouts brought up the rear. 

On arrival at the Parade the crowd had swelled to several thousands and the City Model Band, under Bandmaster L. Lupp, struck up an air of inspiring music.

No. 2 Stall was presided over by Mrs. Kirkpatrick, Miss Nell Cherry, Miss Nell Donnelly, Miss N. Ambrose, Miss J. Curry, Miss M. Jacobs and Miss I. Greely.

The spending public was enticed to this stall by many ways, lovely face powders and perfumes, toilet soaps, ornaments, children’s wear, and heaps of other useful goods for the grownups and children alike, which were temptingly set out for the gaze of the would-be spenders and few, if any, left the stall without making some sort of a purchase.

Ice cream and all nice cool soft drinks, were dispensed by Mrs.

Blackshaw, assisted by Mrs. Ennis, Mrs. Melville, Misses Knight, Powell, Wadell and Hackney. There was a big demand for their goods.

A fish pond was well managed by a bevy of nice girls with Misses Rita Murray, Hazel Pascoe, Gladys Bell and Nancy Hart.

All sorts of nice things were in the pond and the fishing progressed well all the afternoon, there being many anglers for the list. The day proved an outstanding success.
