“...history of the C.S.A. Therefore, I must start with what is uppermost in my mind as I pen these lines and that is to express my great gratitude to God for what Chefoo and the C.S.A. have meant to me throughout my life. The fellowship I enjoyed with Old Chefusians in the Association was, I know, a steadying influence to me in my early post-school days and the memory of many friendships formed through the C.S.A. is very precious to me. It has been a great privilege to have been of some service to the Association.
As I look back over the last forty-one years I remember with pleasure the many happy Reunions, Chefoo week-ends and Chinese Chows we have had, and on what a grand scale they were in the 1930’s when there was a steady stream of new members from the Schools.
Now I leave the Committee confident that the affairs of the Association are in the hands of a devoted band of members who will, with God’s guidance, seek to uphold the traditions and high ideals that have inspired the work of our...”

“...Though we had to dip a little into our reserves this past year, we are still ambitious enough to want to maintain our magazine as at present, rather than turn out a cheaper news-letter, so that further calls on our small reserve funds must be expected. Ties, pin badges and blazer badges are still available for G.B. members direct from the Treasurer; for
others, please order through your Branch Secretaries.
A summary of the audited accounts is given below.

“...KATHRYN LYALL and MAYBETH GRAY are both in the C.I.M., and both Chefusians, as you are aware, and I never cease to thank God for the education and Godly influence of the Chefoo schools, for myself and them.”
DOROTHY (LOOSLEY) KAMBE-STAD, 1950 Woodland Avenue, East Palo Alto, California, U.S.A., contributes an interesting and valuable footnote to Chefoo history, unknown perhaps to some Chefusians—re “ Pean ”. Dorothy writes: “It was my mother, who got Mr. Willett in the B.D., to introduce peanut butter into the schools. Will you please give her the credit in the next issue of the magazine ? JEAN ‘DILLEY' WOODRING was* here yesterday. I have also talked to CLARENCE PREEDY by phone.”
DR. VICTOR LOGAN, 115 Stonybrook Drive, Rochester 18, New York, U.S.A., writes: “ No special news. My sister ELSA gets around to see a lot of Chefoo school mates, including the Toronto reunions, now and again.
