Notes
- Two returned soldiers, Messrs Bibby and Lawless, who have been going through a course at the woodworking class at the School of Mines, have obtained positions at the School of Mines, have obtained positions at the Buninyong Box Factory at the full wage. This speaks well both for the work of the soldier students and for the class.[3]
