The Compound has seen various changes since the issue of our last number. Another semi-detached house has been built between the San and the Girls’ School, and much curiosity has been aroused as to who its occupants will be.

“...2 Towards the end of the term the girls had a pleasant surprise in the flying visit of Miss Iv. Judd, an Old Girl, who was passing through Chefoo on her way to Hwailu, Hopei. During the first part of the term Miss Cooke was housekeeper at the Girls’ School, as Miss Williams was detained in Shanghai on account of her health, but later, when the latter returned to take up her former post, Miss Cooke left for Shansi, accompanied by the best wishes of all the girls. The Girls’ School are glad to welcome Miss Dobson and Miss Macnair as members of the Staff. The former has taken up the position of Matron.

The afternoon was left free for families to have their own enjoyments, the Compound festivities being fixed for the tollowing day. We were greatly honoured on the afternoon of Boxing Day, by a visit from Ranji Panji, the famous Indian dwarf prince, who danced for us and conversed quite affably, Mr. Lyall acting as interpreter.

The Memorial Hall, which was most tastefully de- corated with cinerarias, geraniums and blossom, was com- fortably filled with the girls and boys of the C.I.M. Schools and with many friends, when the bride arrived punctually at 10.30 a.m. Escorted by the Rev. A. Lutley and closely followed by the bridesmaid, Miss K. Macnair, the bride walked down the aisle to the strains of Wagner’s Bridal Chorus, and at the beautifully decorated platform met the bridegroom, who was attended by Mr. S. Houghton as groomsman. The bride wore a beautiful dress of hand-made lace over oyster satin. Particular interest attached to the lace, which had belonged to her great grandmother, and to the veil made by the bride’s...”
