down on the schedule. THIS c"nj'M.i -
is on the look for new walks
which will meet the requirements
of the Wanderlusters.
THE schedule for walks is usually
L made far ahead In little pa
per, called the Wanderluster. pub
liShed at intervals, the schedule is
set down. so that all Wanderiusters
may See it. The issue OF March l
gave the schedule of walks from
March 6 to August IS. In that
schedule are twenty-eight walk
days and on some of those days there
are Two "dlkSr uHuff ulhfi itHt Ae"'-
crs and covering different directions.
Some days there are an a!l-day Waih
and an afternoon walk under dif-
fereDt leaders, the all-day cutters
joining the afternoon walkers d.
some point along their trail.
There is also a moonlight walk
schedule, beginning May IL and end
ing August Il. Schedules viii be
made up later which Will outline the
walks until the end of the year. The
present schedule covers most or those
walks in the District. Virginia and
Maryland which have proved popular
and several new ones have been set
down. One Of the summer trips Will be
over the Bull Run battlefieids. The
WandeTlusters have made several
trips, beginning at Harpers Ferry and
,, covering the country in that vicinity
They have walked all over the An
tietam and South Mountain battle
fields, and covered some very inter
esting country in the Blue Ridge ana
the upper part of the shenandoah val
ley and have climbed Sugarioaf moun-
tain. the great hill thirty miles from
Washington, which you can see on a
clear day from a number of nigh
points in the city and its suburbs.
The older walks get to be well
known ard people talk about them as
they do about plays. Some of the
walks are popular with one Set and
other walks have their admirers.
All the leaders are popular but some
have more followers than others
Some have the reputation for making
hard walks and others easy walks.
One leader walks just little too
fast and picks too much rock coun-
try and cliff climbing and another
leader may walk little too slow
and pick out walks that lack vari-t '
of scenery and which do not presr nj
enough obstacles. Thr people get In
! the habit of calling tn" walks by
