Empire Day Celebrations Highlighted by Patriotism and Speeches
The Geraldton event featured Thelma Hacellen’s winning essay praising Empire Day, with Mayor Kempton and MP Mann addressing a large crowd in Owen Park. Children saluted the British flag as memories of the war era were reflected, plus a school collection for Foreium children and a Red Rose Fund drive raised funds amid sports and refreshments. A livestock sale followed, with strong prices on lambs and sheep and a brisk trade from buyers.
