The General Committee Notes
HERE we are once again ! and naturally when Old Chefusians collect we can always add—“ All good friends and jolly good company ”.
Presentation to Rev. and Mrs. Bruce. It was with great pleasure that we presented to Rev. and Mrs. Bruce, at the London Winter Reunion, a token of our admiration and gratitude for all that they have done for the Schools. Our Chairman, with a few chosen words, presented them with a cheque for £37/8/6, contributed solely by the G.B. Branch members. Rev. P. A. Bruce, or “ PA ” as he was affectionately known at Chefoo, thanked all for their generosity and said that he enjoyed every minute of his time as Headmaster although the task was not always easy.
A further gift of £9/12/9 from the North American Branch was later received and forwarded to them.
Magazine. Our thanks are again, due to the Editorial Staff and to all who have contributed...”
