BAS/CB Ref. 41 Gen'l.

Deputy Director of Native Affairs, BRISBANE.

On the 16th November under reference 1A/230, you sought the aboriginal meaning of:-

(1) Where the rainbow ends or the end of the rainbow. (2) Where the sun shines, or sun is shining. (3) Taringa.

As a result of my subsequent enquiries the following aboriginal interpretation is conveyed to you.

(1) Ge Orhn Bernya - End of Rainbow - South Burnett Dialect. Moondagarra Beelah - Rainbow Shining - Western Queensland Dialect. (2) Jan Narn Jeanger - Sun Shining - South Burnett Dialect. (3) Kangaroo Play Ground - South Burnett Dialect.

Superintendent.
