LOCAL SCOUTS HIKE
PARTY WALKS CANTON
A distance of 92 miles from Shumchun to Canton, following the railway track, has been covered by a group of scouts of the 10th Hongkong Pack and 1st Hongkong Sea Scouts under the guidance of the Rev. N.V.Halward, the popular Assistant Commissioner.
The party took three days and two nights to cover the journey. All, however, did not complete the trek, and of the original party of 16 only seven, including Mr. Halward, reached their destination on Wednesday night.
The first day, full kit was carried and this combined with the heat of day was enough to melt the ardour of even the most stout-hearted. As Mr. Halward remarked, “It was jolly hot, but well worth it.” One by one, members of the party dropped out at the various stations, the rest leaving with them as much of the gear as it was possible to do without.
On arrival, the hikers were given a great welcome by the Canton Scouts and officials.

本地童軍遠足
行路上廣州
一段由深圳(Shumchun)至廣州(Canton) 92英里的鐵路旁，有一隊由香港第10旅及香港第1海童軍旅組成的童軍，他們的領隊是知名的助理總監侯利華牧師(Rev. N.V.Halward)。
整個旅程歷時三日兩夜，但並非所有人都成功完成旅程，16人中只有7人，包括侯利華先生，於星期三晚抵達目的地。
第一天，他們帶備全套裝備出發，但炎熱的白天足以融化勇者的熱情，正如侯利華先生所說：「天氣非常熱，亦非常值得」。隊員在各車站一一退出，剩餘的隊員則盡量帶上最多的裝備。
當抵達時，各隊員受到了廣州童軍及官員熱情招待。
