 In a political sense we have the "Left Wing", whose adherents can always be relied upon to raise contentious matter at General Meetings, and are generally agin the Government, no matter what the Government's opinion may be. In a political sense we have the "Left Wing", whose adherents can always be relied upon to raise contentious matter at General Meetings, and are generally agin the Government, no matter what the Government's opinion may be.
  
-Also worthy of mention is the recently formed band of "Tigers" whose Hurculean achievements put them so obviously in a class entirely the reverse to the "Pionic-ers" that it is almost superfluous to point out the fact.+Also worthy of mention is the recently formed band of "Tigers" whose Hurculean achievements put them so obviously in a class entirely the reverse to the "Picnic-ers" that it is almost superfluous to point out the fact.
  
 An announcement has also been made concerning the formation of a "Light Brigade" (foundation members Alex Colley and Dot English). Anyone can join - there is no charge, the only condition of membership being that the weekend pack must not exceed 15 lbs. This, we feel, is stating an exceptionally high maximum. When all the Bright Ideas of Club members are put into operation (aided and abetted, of course, by our invaluable and priceless Paddy) there is no saying where we might end. An announcement has also been made concerning the formation of a "Light Brigade" (foundation members Alex Colley and Dot English).

-**Paddy hopes** that the weather for Eight-hour week-end will be as reliable as Paddy made gear, and each night as you lie down to rest in your Paddy-made Sleeping Bag on your Paddy-made groundsheet inside your Paddy-made tent with head resting maybe on your Paddy-made Rucksack may you enjoy the sweet refreshing sleep that comes after an active well enjoyed day in the bush. +
-In other words good camping.+

 At our last Monthly Meeting it was decided that the "Annual" magazine be discontinued owing to the expense of production and the small returns from the sales. Of course, it would be impossible for the members of the Club to sell enough copies among their friends to pay for the paper but surely the magazine has a definite value in advertising New South Wales. At our last Monthly Meeting it was decided that the "Annual" magazine be discontinued owing to the expense of production and the small returns from the sales.

 The Tasmanian Trampers with about one quarter of our membership publishes 2,000 magazines; of these the Tasmanian Tourist Bureau disposes of 1,500, the Bookstalls 250, leaving only 250 to the Club. If the work of such a small Club is of such benefit to Tasmania, what must the work of the S.B.W. be worth to New South Wales? We know by the numbers entertained, but does the Government Tourist Bureau? Have they been approached? Before a definite decision is made could we not get in touch with the Bureau? I feel that the discontinuance of the magazine would be a loss not only to ourselves but also to the State. The Tasmanian Trampers with about one quarter of our membership publishes 2,000 magazines; of these the Tasmanian Tourist Bureau disposes of 1,500, the Bookstalls 250, leaving only 250 to the Club.
