Chefoo.
Vol. X.—No. 2. OCTOBER. 1918.
Editorial,
’* Chefoo " in a new guise ! Shortage of paper and funds have obliged us to edit it without a cover. However, it will not be the less welcome because of that, we believe.
Our warmest thanks are due to those Old Chefooites who have not only paid up their back subscriptions, but, in some cases, have sent a donation as well. This has been a very great help and comfort to an enthusiastic Treasurer, to whose " Note " we would like to draw attention.
We now have a London Secretary, who will be glad to hear from any Chefooites staying in or passing through London.
We need not do more than warmly commend the object of “ Old Chefooites—in Germany ! " as many, we are sure, will be glad of a chance of showing comradeship with their old schoolmates in their very trying position.
In conclusion, many thanks to those who have sent us articles, letters, and items of news. But will those...”

“...prayers for the Old Boys and their parents in their time of anxiety. Mr. Baller was in Chefoo last summer, and it was grand to listen to him once more, both in Union Chapel and Boys’ School. But I must close now. I was struck with the tired look on the faces of most of the teachers. I don’t think we realize the burden on them, and the way they carry former pupils, as well as present ones, on their hearts. I know I didn’t. I think we can all say, " Thank God for the teachers, thank God for the schools, and God bless them.”
Lois Stephen.
A Donfeey Tour.
She came softly down the road that July afternoon, delicately lifting each prettily shod foot, as she brought—for it was war-time—• a large costermonger cart to my gate. And when I saw her, like a Quakeress in her sober grey, with dainty twitching ears and pensive, drooping head—when she turned her eyes upon me, I fell irretrievably in love with her. She, and she only, was the one creature I could choose to share a long summer holiday.

“...locumcy, and is enjoying her work very much. Marjory is teaching at a school in St. Leonard’s.
Yours very sincerely, Kathleen L. Broomhall, London Sec.
538 Church Street, Toronto. Dear Editor,
I was very pleased to receive your letter telling of the decision of the Old Girls to carry on the Mag. As you say, we need it more than ever now. We are so scattered that we need some special bond of union, and this need the Mag. supplies. I am sure you will earn the gratitude of all who care for the schools by your effort to keep things running.
There is little news at present. Paul Goforth has gone to Kaspukas-ing Internment Camp in Northern Ontario to work among the Guards in connection with the Y.M.C.A. Arthur Parry is still at camp here with the A.M.C., but expects to proceed overseas soon. George Horne has started to fly—at least, he is a Cadet in the R.F.C., training for an aviator. The rest of us are busy, each doing that which lies nearest at hand.
Yours sincerely,
W. G. Windsor.
Dear Editor...”
