After many months waiting, a long-felt need has been supplied, as Vulcan can now boast of a school and also a schoolmaster. And in honor of same, the residents of Vulcan and Brogan's Creek assembled at Mr. O. Cafe's residence on Friday night to welcome Mr. Crogan, who has been appointed teacher here. A most enjoyable time was spent, and singing and recitations were given by several of those present, while the step dancing of Miss Nita McKinnon, of Lithgow, was highly appreciated. Dancing was indulged in until the early hours of morning. Several appropriate speeches were made, and were responded to by Mr. Crogan.
On the Saturday morning, about 11 o'clock, the parents, children, and friends (sports, everyone of them) gathered together once more and held a picnic under the cherry trees in Mr. Phil Farrelly's paddock, and races and games of all sorts were thoroughly enjoyed. It was really a day's fun for the adults as well as the children. About 6.30 everybody left for home feeling tired but happy. Although only a small place about eighty people attended the picnic, and we hope there will be double that number at the next gathering which everyone is looking forward to in the near future1
