 The going on the creek was not too bad - provided one used the creek as track. Going on the bank was too slow - too bushy. It was never deeper than six or eight inches, so we paddled. Ye Gods! It was cold. At 10.30 we could see where the walls broke down, and there was a blue line of sky not far above, and at 11 a.m. we sat in the saddle, looking out to the Peaks and Yerranderie.

 Note: This habit could develop into serious Club rivalry and could easily cause Paddy to go out of business as walkers frantically scuttle sleeping bags, tents, groundsheets and other luxuries to be in the fashion.

-PADDYNEWS.
-Paddy has just received an advance copy of 'Skyline" Magazine of the Launceston Walking Club. It is an excellent production and contains a number of articles well worth reading. It beats me how our brother walkers from the Southern Isle manage to produce these magazines when we in Sydney years ago gave away the production of an annual as a hopeless proposition. Copies are available at 2/6d.

 Friday 21st October, 1927, to Friday 17th October, 1952 - 25 years less 4 days.
-I wonder if the original group ever expected to see such an anniversary party, youngsters and oldsters: all in together celebrating aar birthday, just a quarter of a century after their original idea to form a mixed walking club.
-Every week-end Club members are out in the bush enjoying themselves and the Physical effort used in deriving this pleasure is repaid to them in relaxation of mind, freedom from everyday cares and worries, and with good fellowship. You must put something into bushwalking to get anything out of it, and its "taste" is the sweeter because it is your own initiative Which is bringing in its reward.
+I wonder if the original group ever expected to see such an anniversary party, youngsters and oldsters all in together celebrating our birthday, just a quarter of a century after their original idea to form a mixed walking club.
-The Club has grown by this very method. Members are putting bad k into the Club some of their experience and workday skills to further the interests of bush- walkers generally. Every time you give information about a certain area to a fellow :member you are putting back something: every walk you lead, every walk you attend, you are putting back something: every time yaa come back from a trip and chew the rag", making your listeners want to get out and do some more walking you are also putting something back into the Club's common fund of knowledge and friendliness.
-This year I have one of the official positions it the Club, and I seam to be getting more eajoyment from its activities than ever before, Which makes me believe that the more effort you put into anything, the greater the satisfaction gained.

 MANY HIPPY'S TO S.B.W.
 As a member for over twenty of the twenty-five years of the Club's history Paddy, very sincerely wishes the Club many happy years of bushwalking in the future. Members come and go; even presidents come and go (though we seem reluctant to part with some of them), but the sane aims and aspirations carry the work on.
