+The revenue proves this! And we, as part of the travelling public, know the discomforts!
+**"The Bushwalker" No. 5 - 1941 issue** The Editor reported that difficulties were being experienced as the publication Committee was now minus Business Manager and an Advertising Manager; paper would be very much dearer than last year, and advertisements probably very hard to get.

+**The Federation Ball on 22nd July** The committee for this function reported that this year there will be no prize for the best-dressed table. 'Pity, just when the hoodoo of the R.C.C. stranglehold was broken and people might have taken an interest in the competition! Still, we know it will be a good Ball anyway!
+**Garawarra Park** Trust recently provided the Surf Club at Burning Palms with a full-sized First Aid Kit at a cost of £3/-/-. The Trust is in a better financial position this year and has sufficient funds in hand to last until November.
+The **Youth Hostels Association** has now drafted out a constitution and set of bylaws, and has decided that the first place's in which it should endeavour to establish hostels are Otford, Waterfall and Wattamolla. Its meetings are open to all people interested and Federation Secretary Merle Iredale can supply information about place and date.
+**Pitons on Carlon Head** John Manson of the SBW announced that the route from Narrow Neck Peninsula over Carlon Head to the Black Dog Track is now negotiable by walkers as he has placed pitons and a hand chain on the big rock which used to make it impassable to all but rock-climbers. The delegates present welcomed the news of the opening up of this fresh route and passed a hearty vote of thanks for the work done.
