Addendum 1
“...in this period added the sub-title: The Organ of the
Chefoo Schools Association.
When we look at page 1 of this issue, "Editorial: The 'Why' and
'Wherefore,'" there is no reference to why they used the same
name as the alumni magazine, it is clearly an in-house issue,
stating the following:
"Another Magazine!! Yes, and we trust, there is no
apology needed for it. In past years there have been so
many sporadic attempts to run a Magazine that we
believe there is ample proof of the desire - if not the
necessity - of a magazine for the School.
"Hitherto the various Magazines have not contained very
much of School News. It is with the express object of
chronicling School events - and so in a small way or
writing a contemporary history of the Chefoo Schools."
The editorial goes on to say:
"Here it may be well to say that there is not the slightest
intention to publish this Magazine in opposition to the
one issued by the Chefoo Schools Association. We believe
there is amble room for this Magazine...”

“...much
of School News. It is with the express object of chronicling School
events—and so in a small way of writing a contemporary history
of the Chefoo Schools—that this Magazine has been started.
By means of this paper, which, we hope, will filter through, not
only to all the Mission homes in China but also to the homelands,
those who from various reasons are keenly interested in the School,
will be kept in touch with all those events which mean so much to
the boys and girls in the Schools.
In addition, from time to time, we hope to have articles
of a more general nature, both interesting and instructive.
Among other features, we hope to devote son e space to news
from past members of the Schools. Here it may be well to say that
there is not the slightest intention to publish this Magazine in opposi-
tion to the one issued by the Chefoo Schools Association. We
believe there is ample room for this Magazine side by side with the
one already published.
This paper is not published at present officially...”

“...old Boys Magazine, our soccer
team this season has been quite up to if not beyond the standard of
former years. While it is true, as Chiel s list shows, we have not won
all our matches, yet this is not due to the lavish praise bestowed upon
the Eleven, in the local press. The author of those remarks ought
to have been able to judge of the abilities of the pl Schools played
all boys except in goal: The Settlement’s eleven was better this year,
while the Monmouth’s although called “Boys” were really young men
and a well trained eleven to boot. Again, Chiel failed to mention
the fact that the School in those games were without the services
of three of their best men. When these facts are taken into considera-
tion, it will be seen that the School Eleven this season was above the
ordinary average of School footer teams and in every way quite
capable of up holding...”

“...In the thick of fun
And our hearts are happy
Larking in the sun.
Tune “Riding down
I. Parent comes to Chefoo V.
Brings his little chick
Wants to come and see who
Will that darling lick.
Lands he in a bluster
Blowing from the Bluff
Parent in a fluster
Clothing not enough.
II. Rickshas claim the party
Take them to the “San,”
There a welcome hearty
Warms the inner man.
Soon they ask direction
To the School they seek.
And a parent humble
Takes his infant meek.
III. By-and-bye they chatter
To the Schools’ kind friends
And they hear the clatter
Clatter which ne’er ends
How hard hearted teachers
Do not understand
Treat the dears like creatures
Feelingless and bland
IV. Fearful words like bath-tub
“Brimstone,” “Treacle” too
“Quarantine,” “marks,” “gated”
Float their noddles thro’
Till they hear of “cupboard”
Where the “Tuck” is kept
And their hearts soon conjure
Joys beyond concept....”

“...recreations, Compulsory,
Exeat-Sports-Tennis and Boat Races. These events which come round
so regularly and which the majority of us regard with such pleasure,
are indeed part of our School life and training, and should be
important factors in the building up of our characters.
The aim and object of all this recreation can perhaps be summed
up in the words of St. Paul: “Whether we live therefore or whether
we die, we are the Lord’s ” We desire that every boy and girl passing
through our Chefoo Schools should be brought to realise this duty
to Him “who is above all and through all and in us all. ”
Realising this, we desire that they shall learn to know Him
“whom to know is life eternal”. With this aim in view, therefore,
our outdoor life is organised in such a way that the elements of a
good character in a healthy body are most likely to be obtained.
Thus our outdoor life has a serious side to it. Think for a
moment, what, Compulsory Football or Cricket teach us. We
might consider “ DUTY ”...”
