Our Chairman, Mr. Mudditt, has also written the following remarks for insertion in this issue:—
“ The England Committee of the Chefoo Schools Association have requested me to write something for insertion in this issue of the Magazine, as we all feel that we should certainly be lacking in our appreciation of Mr. and Mrs. McCarthy’s work during their many years at the Chefoo Schools if we neglected to do so.
As an old boy who was at the School just prior to and for some years after Mr. McCarthy’s appointment I can only say how much I and my contemporaries respected him for what he did, both in connection with the scholastic, physical and spiritual sides of our training whilst we were at School. To say that we also feared him is true, but not in the sense of a craven fear. Our only fear was that we might offend him by not living absolutely up to the ideals which he set before us, both by word and deed in every department of his life.
For Mrs. McCarthy I can only say that every...”

ENGLAND and SCOTLAND SECTION.

Most of our members have filled in the Membership Cards recently issued and it is hoped that others who have not done so will send theirs to the Secretary as soon as possible.

CHEFOO REUNION.
JANUARY 11th, 1930.
WINTER, if a fall of snow be a sine qua non of winter, fell upon January 11th this year. Appropriately enough, our Annual Winter Reunion fell on the same date and those Chefooites and their friends who attended quickly forgot the dismal out-of-doors in the warmth of the hospitality accorded by the C.I.M., Newington Green.
It has been said that Time and Tide wait for no man; if there is one thing which makes time not only wait, but first slip back a decade...”
