As soon as Jo- seph l.. Cosgriff, hard working and energetic chairman of the commit tee in charge of the celebration noted the impossibility of proceed ing with the open-air arrangements he communicated with Rev Will liam J. O'Shea and received per- mission to use the kitchen and auditorium of St Michaels Parish hall. Within a short time, willing hands assisted in preparing the hall for dinner and a happy crowd of Fairmounters were seated at long tables enjoying the splendid meal prepared under the direction of Walter Hoerman and his assist ants, Clifford Jones, Charles Beard, John Byrnes and Clifford Northrop.
