-about three 1u-BkD. The wild experiences he relatEt; here. happened on only his second or third bushwalk - Editor.)
-Didn't you see the title? Ittola you clearly not to read this rubbish. Put you are reading, so I might as well begin.
- The trouble all began on Ross i y-born's Deua River trip, ,Anzac reek- end. Richard, the 'cod in front, disappeared over the brow of Con Ridge. Waiting its chance, a black and red snake now made its appearance from a charred tree trunk. Having nevem- seen a live snake so close before,
-it seamed to hold me in a form of trance for what seemed to be a lifetime. Eventually thc snake made its mind up that it didnct feel like fresh meat today and wrig,-led off. This was just the beginning of the fun as you will see.
-That had become of Ross and the others was the next problem that hit me between the eyes. It seems so -easy When one is with the group to follow a bush track. No all alone the bush took on a new dimension. The trees and scrub had now turned into a wall around me. Calling out,
-Ira the far distance came back a faint reply. Following where I thought the
-sound had come from I went into the bush, but it was not very much like
-a track. The gums and scrub became, harder to get through with each step taken. Then under my feet I saw what locked like a snake. My first reaction was to scream and jump in the air. Only when it was too late did I see the snake turn out to be a 'Roo. rut I was already in orbit and about to crash land through a clump of thistles and bushes, so the fact that it was not a snake didn't help much The bushes collapsed under my weight and thistles stuck into my never mind. 7hen I came to,

-my legs seamed to be hanging in the Ecir. Really it was no wonder for
-I had jumped into a pothole shaft ancl only my wedgeapadk holding me up.
-Eventually crawling out I kept on walking deeper down into the sides of the creek below. 435, now my mina had turned to what might happen if
-no one found me. I had thoughts of having to light fires at night all around me to keep the dingos at bay. The only thing was, woulq they
- find my charred remains in the morning? Saved: I could hear someone coming through the scrub. Then the big surprise - they turned out to be Canberra University Potholore. I had followed their ball which had in fact been meant for two of their members who had also gone astray. After talking things over they felt it would be unwise for me to carry on looking for the S.7.7.. till the morning.
-Making camp on the sloping bank of the creek, we then settled down around a fire for our dinner. Late into the night a discussion was held on what creature would have found me first. It wasn't so good to know
-how many.
-Parting company with a grand bunch of lads early in the morning, I made my way down to the end of the creek. Finding a clearing and then
-a track, I was nearly sure this would lead to Ross and Company. After walking only a short way who should appear round the next bond but Dot and Roger. Both at seeing me burst out with big s#les: I told them my
-tale of the events which lea up to my meeting them. Roger made off to call in the search parties.
-Maybe you might think you'Can't got lost ih one weekend twice,
-but you're wrong for it can happen and it aid, but that's another tale.

-Philosophy as a subject comes from great antiquity. It means
-the love, study and purstof wisdom or of the knowledge of things and
-their causes. Such things may be theoretical or practical. The
-basis of science or of religion comes from philosophy. It lies behinq and above all other knowledge we have or use.
- Customarily reserved for the halls of learning and the intellectual, the subject, to a remarkable degree, has been denied the man in the street. Surrounded by protective coatings of impenetrable scholarliness, philosophy has been reserved to the priveleged few.
-For any philosophy to be worth consideration it must be meant
-for anybody at all who wishes to reach for it. It is the servant of the commoner and king alike and not something to be regarded with awe.
-The second principle of such a philosophy is that it must be capable of being applied. Learning locked away in antiquated books
-is not much value to anyone unless it can loe used. The Third principle is that any philosophic knowledge is only valuable if it is true or if it works.
-A philosophy can only be a route to knowledge. It cannot be
-crmmed down anybody's throat. If one has a route, he can then find
-. what is true for him. Know Theyself .. and the truth shall set you free.
-Common man likes to be tippy and well. He likes to be able to understand things and he knows his route to freedom lies through knowledge.
-Scientology (Latin: Scioknowing, Greek: logos  study) is a system of organised axioms resolving problems of the spirit, life
-and thought, developed by a Doctor of Philosophy through the application of the Scientific Method to the Humanities.
-It is a new form of applied philosophy and bushwalkers often
-inclined to the philosophic vein, may be interest to join me in a visit to a Scientology Meeting.
