“...JULY, 1962 C..S.A. MAGAZINE. No. 61! General Committee Notes HE editing of the magazine is now being shared by Jean Pearce and Elva Nicholson (nee Cook) who has joined the General Committee expressly for this purpose. We are very grateful to these two for sustaining the life of this most important link between our members without which the Association could hardly continue to exist. Their task will be made lighter by our willing response to their requests for articles and items of news. We reported in the last Magazine that Marjorie Broomhall had resigned from the Committee. The job of keeping us in close touch with the C.I.M. Headquarters in London now passes to Gillian Lyall whom, with Elva, we welcome to the General Committee. Arthur R. Parry. Hon. Gen. Secretary. The Editorial “ we ” can now be used with complete justification as you, who are readers of this magazine, have two of us to gather together your articles, news and views. We take up our task with a certain amount of trepidation...”

“...C.S.A. MAGAZINE IN MEMORIAM John Robertson Sinton, 1918-1961 Contributed by G. P. Welch HE Chefoo School has reason to be proud of many of its sons and daughters, and Rob (as he was commonly known among his friends) was certainly among this number. He excelled both in the classroom and on the sports field and those who watched him grow up realized that he had outstanding gifts. From Chefoo he went to the City of London School and there obtained his 1 st M.B. exam., having chosen to study medicine. During his student days he was taken to hospital and it was discovered that he was suffering from a disease which was going to dog his footsteps for the rest of his life. Against this background Rob courageously went forward steadily, qualifying in 1944 and in due time getting right to the top of the profession, obtaining his M.R.C.P. and M.D. degrees. His professional work consisted particularly of using his skill and knowledge to help those who were suffering from the same disease that was attacking...”

“...both at the Toronto Chefoo re-union and contributed the following news item for the magazine: “ Harold Warren has been elected to the Board of Managers of the Toronto Bible College. He and Doris always have a warm welcome for any visitors to Bethel Baptist Church.” A very short while later some of us attended his funeral. Harold was a graduate in architecture of the University of Toronto and had for some years been a member of a large Toronto construction company, the Foundation Company of Canada, which has numbered among its many contracts parts of the new Toronto subway. Many warm and sincere tributes show that he was much respected in the firm. Perhaps more important, however, was his active membership in Bethel Baptist Church. The Sunday that he collapsed and died of a heart attack, he had been one of the prime movers and organizers of a series of special meetings this church was carrying on. His quiet influence will be much missed in his business, church and Chefoo circles. The news...”

“...A National Political Organizer by an anonymous contributor NUMBER of articles have appeared in this magazine describing various vocations, librarian, Barbara Hulse; housewife, Marjorie Lugsdin; Deputy Minister of Finance, or something along that line, Kenneth Taylor; in each case from the angle of how Chefoo fitted them for their life work. That angle is missing in this, since it was not commissioned for the series, but in all probability it will be the sole one on national political organizers. Some two years ago, I sent Alistair Grosart an impassioned plea for a C.S.A. article for this series with some such title as “ How I became the Eminence Grise of the Canadian Conservative Party ”, I got an immediate and delightful reply by telegram, “ Article in the mail, Monday.” Something went wrong with the mails. That Monday has not yet arrived, so here is this instead. As a good staunch conservative (no this is not electioneering, because firstly what is this Eatonswill, or if you are a purist...”

“...large schoolroom with picture windows looking down across those pine-covered slopes. We are rather like the little one-room schoolhouse of the past generation. This term we shall have classes for five out of the first six grades, with children from the United States, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, and Ireland. Variety is not lacking ! To keep the wheels running smoothly in the home, Mr. and Mrs. Philip Holder have been our houseparents. Mrs. Holder, as Margaret Vinden, went to school at the Chefoo School in China. When they recently left for furlough, Mr. and Mrs. Cyril Weller came to take their place, bringing with them four-year-old Lois and four-week-old Daphne Joy, who will add much to our family life. That very important department, the kitchen, is presided over to everyone’s satisfaction by Miss Margrit Furrer from Switzerland. We are often asked if the children are homesick, and can honestly say that we very seldom see this. Children of this age live largely in the present, and...”

“...Secretary, Japan Evangelistic Band WE were steaming dreamily through the unusually placid waters of the Pacific Ocean off the China coast. The sun was setting and rays of orange light were streaming through the breaks in the heavy clouds which darkened the already sulky surface of the sea. Leaning on the ship’s rail with my chin in my hand, by a rapid calculation I reached the nostalgic conclusion that just a few miles beyond the visible horizon behind the visible rays of the setting sun lay Chefoo. I had every cause to be in reminiscent mood, for was I not at that moment travelling by China Navigation Company Lines on the 5.5. Anshun? Her black hulk had looked so small in Hongkong by comparison with the passenger liner on which I had been before. Her confined accommodation, the steep companionways, the pokey little saloon and dining-room brought back memories of travelling the China coast twenty years before in Shanghai and Tientsin parties; memories of seasickness and memories of pirates;...”

Chefoo Reunion at Urbana, Illinois Some members of the Chefoo School at Ruling had a joyous reunion and pow-wow at the I.V.C.F. Students’ Missionary Convention at Urbana, Illinois, over the Christmas holidays. We spent a couple of hours together chatting and catching up on the news of each other and of other Kulingites. Those present were: Rosemary Adeney, Rob and Marjory Joyce. Joanne and Bruce Crapuchetter, Ruth Toliver. Robert Hallgren. Tom Springer. Dick Kraft. Elaine Davis. Two others, “ Tigger ” Green and John Adeney, were at the convention, but did not get to the reunion. The present trend in Chefoo-Kuling vocations seems to be nursing, medicine and marriage.

“...were members of the C.I.M. Prep. School at Ruling. Chefusians passing through or living near Tunbridge Wells will be very welcome if they call at 1 Mayfield Road. A small reunion of Ruling Staff was recently held at a Chinese restaurant in Tunbridge Wells. Those present were MRS. HOUGHTON, with a friend of FELICITY’S from Chile, MISS PHARE, MISS STARR, MISS JENNINGS, MISS BROOMHALL and MISS DICRSON, just home from the Cameron Highlands, Malaya Chefoo School. After the chow we gathered in Mrs. Houghton’s flat and saw coloured slides of the Malayan Chefoo. Interest was concentrated on the children of ex-Ruling Staff and those of Old Chefusians now serving in the C.I.M. ALISA CARR is still at Greenhill School, Evesham, Worcs. As long as the walls stand up and the roof stays on and she is at home, any passing Chefusian may be sure of a welcome.

If anyone knows of offices going for a song or has a lovely home to give us which could be used for office work, I should be glad of an introduction. Does the C.S.A. Magazine have box numbers ? It might be useful. Gordon, who is eleven, has a grammar school place, but we do not yet know which school.

“...Last summer she was head census commissioner on a British Columbia survey. Most of her time, however, is spent looking after new babies in their homes. ALFRED CROFTS writes: “ My wife and I travelled through Africa and the Middle East in the summer of 1961. We did not meet any Chefusians, but it was fascinating to walk the streets of Jerusalem, of which one read so much while in Chefoo. Returning through London, we dined with the Rev. Keith Stevenson, my room-mate at the Boys’ School. In New York I revisited EDWARD WELLS, now a vice-president of the Mutual of New York Insurance Company, who was brought up in Chefoo and attended the Bible School as a day-pupil from Temple Hill.” From JOHN CROFTS. “ SAI MA continues to flourish in Palatka, Florida, and VERNA is still teaching from her...”

Much credit for successful play is due to the co-captains, Dave Iha, Koloa, Hawaii, and GEORGE KRAFT, Singapore, Malaya.” From Don Fish: “ My wife and I are very happy living in Ottawa.
