 At our February meeting we were all pleased to see our good friend and Honorary Member, Mr. Norbert Carlon.
 New members welcomed were Max Swift, Ken Iredale and Arthur Brophy.
 We learned that Audrey Lumsden has resigned as she never gets time to walk - she is to be married shortly.
 Our Honorary Secretary, Tom Moppett, had a fresh supply of Bushfire Prevention Posters available for distribution, and also displayed a specimen notice for erection near the boundaries of "Morella-karong" stating that it is a private lease.
-The President reminded those present that the Re-Union will be held on 9thilOth March and is CLOSED TO NON-MEMBERS. Permission of Committee must be obtained beforehand if any member wishes to bring along a near relative on the Sunday.

 Members who have been admitted to the Club since last March are asked to contact Maurie Berry before this year's Re-Union.
 Fears were expressed for the safety of "Morella-karong" as Maurie Berry announced that "Myarra" (the M.T.C's 85-acre lease on Heathcote Creek) had been burned out on the previous Sunday, and so had Miss Crommelin's conservation area near Patonga. The organising committee was instructed to look for an alternative re-union site in case of need.
-The meeting decided to appoint Joint Room Stewards for three months at a time and several members volunteered. The two names drawn from a at were Flo. Allsworth and Harry Savage.
-Jack Debert, having returned from holidays full of vim and vigour, started stirring up the club, with the usual amusing and possibly useful results. The amusement was immediate and sustained; any useful results will appear later.

 ===== Strange But True =====
+And so it came to pass that, even whilst pessimists discussed the possibilities of "Morella-karong" being burnt out, the fires were raging and burning up the place.
+"Woe is me" cried the pessimists when they heard the tidings. They wrung their hands and said, "That is the end of all things."
+"Not on your sweet life," replied the club members of 1940. "Maybe the Club is dying on its feet, according to some, but come, scour the four corners of the bush and we will show them. As Nelson said at Waterloo, 'You ain't seen nuffing yet!' The Re-Union must go on."
+So "Let us Re-une" became the battle-cry. Telephone wires ran hot. Urgent meetings were called. The Re-Union Committee had started on the big job of finding the most suitable site. It may not be easy, but, remember, it takes less than 1 1/2 hours to pack up and leave camp, so be ready to pack and move off in five minutes.

 Even bushfires cannot keep a good club down.
