Best of all we enjoyed the warm hospitality of the wonderful Australian people. At the conclusion of our visit we had to say farewell but many of us wished we could have stay- ed longer. We shall long re- member Australia and the two fabulous cities-Brisbane and Sydney.

f 5 52277252 Following two days at sea we arrived at Sydney, Australia, the capital of New South Wales. Sydney is Australia's largest city with a population of nearly two million. The city sprawls inland from a shoreline 180 miles long which encloses one of the world's largest, safest, and deepest harbors. This beautiful harbor is a favorite resort and many sailboats and motor boats can be seen. Electric and steam railroads and motor omnibuses serve the city and suburbus, and ferries ply in the harbor. The great steel-arch sometimes referred to as the coat hanger , completed in 1932, is one of the largest bridges of its kind in the world. The huge structure may be seen from any spot in the city practically and for this reason it is a famous landmark. Sydney is the largest wool-selling center in Australia and the city is famous for its many woolen products. The stores are well-known for their beautiful and especially 'H 1' - colorful garments. lt is easy to see why Sydney, in V ' respect to its social, educational and artistic life, is a leading city of the Southern hemisphere. 2. we 3 c ' gl'-fa- ffiftlt il ..-I
