 **QUEEN VICTORIA HOMES**. Information has been received that recently walkers arrived at 1.30 a.m, and sought accommodation on a verandah and caused disturbance generally. The Matron has raised objections to the general use made of the Home telephone for taxi transport to Wentworth Falls as this service is most inconvenient. Walkers are generally regarded as unpopular on holiday weekends and all are asked to refrain from asking favours which throw additional work upon an already hardworking and probably short-staffed organisation.

 **THE ANNUAL REUNION** of the Federated Clubs will now be held in May of each year, as the fixed date which obtained in September was found unsuitable to many walkers. Suggestions for suitable venue will be very welcome. Primitive Reserves are not favoured for this purpose as large bodies of campers are not conducive to the welfare of such areas. Sporting events will not be held in future.
-Our delegates gave NOTICE OF MOTION for the establishment of a committee to consider tie	of new applications for Federation membership (see November S.B.W. meeting report). We hope that this will overcome difficulties which have arisen in the past so that applicant clubs will be given to understand what is required of them. The Federation can arrange observers to do a walk with the applicant and test their ability and general knowledge of the bush and attitude towards conservation.
