“...THE CHEFOO MAGAZINE. THE CHEFOO SCHOOLS' ASSOCIATION. WHY AND HOW FORMED. A FROM AN OLD BOY’S POINT OF VIEW. BOY cannot .write letters ; at least, nine out of ten cannot, and I’m one of the nine. I almost believe I’m. the ninth. Thus, though I tried for nearly two. years to correspond with Chcfoo and some of my contemporaries., ’twas unavailing, and finally, I lapsed into silence. True, I had not been home long when I received a visit, at the city office where I then was, from W. D. Mudditt. A walk with him in Queen Victoria Street could not but bring to mind the contrast of previous walks on the “Highway,” the “ Top bank,” the “ Gulleys ” and other haunts of a Chefoo boy—all of fadeless memory.

Randle. Several others were unfortunately prevented from attending. At W...”

“...16 THE CHEFOO MAGAZINE. Gbe Sbitor’s Corner. Many will probably think that we have been premature in issuing the first number of the Magazine so early, but the committee thought it would be advisable to adhere to the date on the circular sent out soon after the formation of the Association, announcing the first number in or about September, as many would undoubtedly expect to receive it about this time. The Editor will be delighted to receive and make use of all suitable con- tributions to the paper on any subject of interest to Old Girls and Boys, and hopes that this invitation will be all that is necessary to fill his letter-box, and the Magazine. TO PRESENT BOYS.
