HESE figures speak for themselves. They show that the greater number of old Chefoo Boys and Girls realize the many advantages gained by joining the Chefoo Schools’ Association. Advantages which do not begin and end with the receipt of a Magazine, although we hope that this alone is some inducement, yet we must grasp the fact that the Magazine is only a means to an end and that end :
Unity, Loyalty and Duty.
The Chefoo Schools’ Association was formed just five years ago, and had for its aim, First—Unity or the bringing together of all Boys and Girls, who had once the privilege of passing through these Schools, into one good fellowship to be fostered whenever possible by social gatherings, or failing this, to keep the individual members in touch...”

“...with one another through the medium of the Magazine. Secondly —Loyalty to our Alma mater, to take, at every opportunity, some such practical form as that illustrated in our frontispiece, and last, but not least—Duty, which devolves upon every one of us and which we owe not only to ourselves, or to the Schools, but to the great work which is being carried on in China—the work which made the founding of the Schools possible and essential.
It will cost you less than Jd. per week to join our Association and this will entitle you to receive the Magazine, post free, in addition to the other privileges enjoyed by our members.
Why not join?
You have only to fill in and post the enclosed subscription form.
THE PRESENTATION OF THE ATHLETIC SHIELD.
i ANY Old Boys would have given a great deal to have been present on Wednesday evening, August 20th, when Mr. J. Howard Stooke, on their behalf, handed the magnificent Athletic Shield over to Mr. Murray representing the School Authorities. To make the event...”

“...together in the Upper Fifth. The Preparatory School contingent, it should be stated, were there at the special invitation of Mr. Stooke, as he counted them the future winners of the Shield. The big room itself was occupied by visitors from all parts, including His Britannic Majesty’s Consul. Among the audience were the Staffs of the three Schools—the only absentees being those at home on furlough. Mr. and Mrs. McCarthy and Mr. and Mrs. Lea were much missed.
The centre of attraction in the room was, of course, the Shield mounted on an easel and standing beside the Chairman. It looked indeed a handsome gift, worthy of the grand succession of boys of whom the Old School is so justly proud. There were many admiring comments passed upon it by the visitors and by the rows of open-mouthed school boys. In the middle of the programme came the event of the evening—the presentation of the Shield by Mr. Stooke. In a silence that could be felt the Chairman made his stirring speech to the present generation...”

“...failures. Some may appear outwardly successful in worldly possessions but as in the case of the parable of the Rich Fool their end is certain, for the beginning is wrong.
Mr. Stooke closed with a word of application. Are our beginnings in God ? Do we begin the day with Him ? Are we going to begin the new life after School with Him ? Let us be careful to begin right, look at God in the face of Jesus Christ and we shall always find Him sufficient and He will keep us to the end.
At 3.30 p.m. the three schools and a large number of friends partook of afternoon tea under the trees before Mr. Murray’s house. The three housekeepers combine forces and do their part well in ministering to the enjoyment of the day.
Then we all resorted to the Tennis Court on the north side of the Boys’ School to witness the tournaments, and this year an innovation was made which added greatly to the interest of the game. First a match was played between two old boys, W. Squire and C. Wilson, against two present boys, R....”
