+===Speaking to one who needlessly cut down a tree.===
 As I passed by I looked and saw what you had done. You had cut it a foot above the ground. All around lay the chunks of its white flesh, spattered from the axe. It fell so easily. It did not fight back at all. Its pride and majesty were so easily humbled, flung at your feet, a wreckage of broken branches and mangled leaves. Did you see the long shudder before its fall, I wonder? Did you hear the sigh of leaves, the wrenching cry as it strained then crashed before you?

+=====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.
+===Miners Sox.===
+Paddy now has stocks of miners sox at 8/- per pair - sizes 10" to ll 1/2". They come in a delicate petunia colour. They are the goods for wet trips and in fact for all walking.
+===Aluminium fry-pan plate outfit.===
+Do you old hands remember those extra light frying pan-plate combination outfits which Paddy stocked years ago? Well, he now has a similar set consisting of an 8" Fry pan and similar sized plate with a lip to make it fit over the pan for use as an oven. Detachable handle - the whole lot complete for 7/9d.
+===Aluminium Jars.===
+This is something else Bushwalkers have been seeking for years. Aluminium food jars with push in lids. They come in three sizes, 1/2 pint, 3/4 pint, and 1 pint. And do they cost a fortune? No sir. 2/6d., 2/9d., and 3/6d. is the modest price of these articles.

+=====A Message From The President.=====
 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.
+This year I have one of the official positions in the Club, and I seem to be getting more enjoyment from its activities than ever before, which makes me believe that the more effort you put into anything, the greater the satisfaction gained.
-The Club has been the means of openilag up new physical and spiritual horizons to hundreds of people and has provided them with many happy memories which will grow more precious as the years roll by. It has made its voice heard when the interests of Conservation were at stake and above all it has helped a small section of the community liter ally to keep two feet on the earth and keep sane in these crazy tines.
-The development of the business of Paddy Pallin has from the first been closely associated with the Club. From te very beginning Paddy determined that any business between him and walkers must be on the basis of mutual benefit. With the growth of the Club and the development of interest in walking generally - the business of Paddy Pallin has grown steadily and prospered during the twenty-two years since its establishment. During that time Paddy has endeavoured to render service to Sydney Bushwalkers.and walkers generally and he trusts that the happy relationship now existing will continue to grow and flourish.

 This occasion cannot be let pass without grateful remembrance of the sterling assistance rendered by members of S.B.W. after the disastrous fire which destroyed the shop and factory on Christmas Day 1950. It was not only the physical work done but the friendliness of the gesture which sustained Paddy daring a very trying period.
 May the Club live long and ever foster the friendly fellowship of Walkers.

-THE HISTORY OF THE CLUB SYNI.BOLS.
+----
+=====The History Of The Club Symbols.=====
 By Paddy Pallin.
-All members have seen the beautifully carved symbols Which are used at reunions for the initiation of the President. Being symbols they naturally stand for something and the particular things they stand for are the objects of the Club. Now, at reunions, symbols and objects have on a few occasions been confused and When I wrote a letter gently chiding the President (not that it was his fault, poor fellow!) I paid the penalty of opening my mouth by being given a job - namely, to tell the Club the origin of the Symbols for this special issue of the magazine.
-I must be in the habit of speaking out of turn for When on a committee elected to organise the 1937 Reunion (I think the year is right) I suggested that in the initiation of the President, symbols be used to signify the objects of the Club. 1-l5 a reward for this bright idea I suffered the usual penalty and was given the job of devising and making the symbols, I therefore (with the help of a friend who could draw better than I) made froMwhite card four symbols, nanely a rucksack, a map of Australia, a flannel flower and clasped hands. They had eyelets punched into them and were strung on cord to hang round the Presidentrs neck. The script for the ceremony explains itself and was as follows :-
