However, Eric Pegram, when in Christchurch, N.Z., lately, was lucky enough to have complete meals served to him by another S.B.W. member. Yes, he booked in at the Dub where Pat Sullivan was ekeing out existence as a waitress (between trips). Pegram, cad that he is, was trying to photograph Patsy from beneath his table as she produced the viands.

 +===Social Report:===
 +
 +Organisation pf the Federation Ball to be held at the Paddington Town Hall on Monday, September 14th, is proceeding. Tickets at 17/6d. are now available. Guessing competition to be drawn on July 2nd.
 +
 +===Information:===
 +
 +Paddy Pallin is particularly anxious to obtain information on transport facilities to various walks areas.
 +
 +===Publications:===
 +
 +Editor of "Bushwalker, No.12" outlined general form proposed for publication. There will be 48 pages to sell at 2/- per copy. A pamphlet will shortly be sent out to affiliated Clubs asking for articles.
 +
 +===Warrumbungle National Park:===
 +
 +The Department of Lands will be asked to give Federation representation on the Trust when the Park is gazetted.
 +
 +----
 +
 +You know the old fable of the prospective giving the leader a cup of tea in bed? Well, it only happens once in a while, of course. However, Eric Pegram, when in Christchurch, N.Z., lately, was lucky enough to have complete meals served to him by another S.B.W. member. Yes, he booked in at the pub where Pat Sullivan was ekeing out existence as a waitress (between trips). Pegram, cad that he is, was trying to photograph Patsy from beneath his table as she produced the viands.
 +
 +----
 +
 +=====Paddy Made.=====
 +
 +===Bushwalkers' Best Seller.===
 +
 +There is in the press the fifth edition of that modest little volume "Bushwalking & Camping". Just twenty years ago the first vest pocket edition of this work was published at 6d. per copy. The next edition was completely revised and re-written and each edition since has been re-edited. In all 11,500 copies have been sold.
 +
 +Paddy wishes again to acknowledge those who contributed to the success of this work by writing specialised sections of it, namely, Myles Dunphy, the swag expert, 'Mouldy' Harrison, the super light expert, Dorothy Lawry first-aider, Oliver Moriarty, Tom Moppett, Frank Adams, snowmen, Took Kaske, Ken Baynes and the late Les Harwood canoeists, and Bob Savage camera man, and finally my good friend Dick Graves who prodded me into writing the book and gave invaluable assistance in producing it.
 +
 +So here's to the fifth edition and may it soon run out.
 +
 +Paddy Pallin. Lightweight Camp Gear.
