“...2. CHEFOO SCHOOLS ASSOCIATION President: REV. P. A. BRUCE Vice-Presidents: BISHOP F. HOUGHTON MR. H. F. JOYCE MR. W.D.MUDDITT ******************* IN MEMORIAM GORDON WILBERFORCE AVISON slept his way into the presence of his Lord so peacefully on May 20, that there could be no grieving. There was a comforting memorial service in the church. The pastor told us about the witness of the life of a church member. DICK BAIRD told of GORDON'S missionary connections - the childhood in Korea, the Chefoo days, the Y. M. C. A. work in Kwang-ju; Mr. Daulton, member of the Santa Rosa Y. M. C. A. Board told about the growth of the local Y. M. C. A and GORDON'S work therein. In GORDON'S life no man was a stranger. It is amazing how wide was his circle of friends, here in Santa Rosa where he lived the last seven years, but also in Georgia, in the places where his children live, and Korea. GORDON was one of the first 750 members of the U. S. Army Air Corps, enlisting in 1917. He always loved Chefoo, and spoke...”

“...in Honan, were temporarily in Chefoo following the Boxer uprising. In 1914 Russell returned to take an active part in the life and sports of the Boys'School, being a champion jumper, sprinter and tennis player. A well-remembered event was the Cake Match Final in 1918 when Russell's team played against "Chesh" Dryer's and won. The two were great friends, and now both have passed on, within a few months of each other. On coming to Toronto in 1918, Russell matriculated from University of Toronto Schools and enrolled as a medical student at the University. This career was cut short by his father's sudden death in China, and Russell went into business. For some years he was with the firm of Clarkson and Gordon, Chartered Accountants, and in 1929 he married Beatrice Sutton. They had a very happy life and only two weeks ago celebrated their 39th anniversary....”

“...Country Acres, (the "Chefoo" hostel for Canada) to old time Chefusians senior even to this secretary. This do-it-yourself job is due to the secretary having carefully asked someone to write up the reunion, but who was it? Another mea culpa. Food, friends, and the usual do-you-remember's were up to standard. VIVIAN GONDER, our Toronto chairman, outlined plans for what has become an annual summer picnic, just a little a la Chefoo. Do you remember the Easter holidays when in order to empty the schools for spring cleaning, we were all sent off on long tramps, or the weaklings by mule litter, to picnic at the wistaria covered Bamboo Temple (Chefoo), or the azaleas beside the Three Falls (Ruling)? Our picnic this year is to be to the Muskoka holiday lake country, an all day affair again, partly by bus and partly by boat. It is planned for a Saturday which by a coincidence falls on June 15 (remember Foundation Day?). On the boat we'll just shut our eyes and see ourselves heroically rowing the...”

“...in Wapato, Wash, where he is a doctor: "I was happy to receive the issue of the Chefusian with news of many of my former class mates. I wonder if a letter from DON FISH was a result of the Chefusian articled intend to correspond with him and also with DAVID CLARKE. It is interesting to realize what a small world we are living in; also it is amazing how many graduates go into professional work, due, I am sure to our tremendous background in Chefoo. As I see my children raised in contemporary schools, I wish that they could have an education such as we had in Chefoo. " From DAVID CLARKE: "We all went to England last summer and our girls met their cousins, aunts, and uncles for the first time that they can remember....”

“...18. us a wonderful opportunity to do a quiet work for Christ among these future leaders from different lands. My three living sisters, ESTHER, RUTH and HARRIET attended the C. I. M. schools in Chefoo for a time. ESTHER and HARRIET married physicians, and RUTH is a nurse, a specialist for elderly folks. ESTHER and her husband, Dr. Brewer were missionaries in Chefoo, where he was a surgeon at Temple Hill Hospital. From the JOYCE family, ROB (son of RAYMOND) writes: "After graduate, with a B. A. in English Literature from the University of Saskatchewan in 1961, attending Toronto Bible College, and obtaining an M. A. in Islamic Studies from the University of Toronto in 1966, I am now completing my second year in a Ph. D. program from the University of Toronto.

“...and well, is in Ottawa, lecturing in cartography at the university, two children. JOY COOPER (nee KIRK) lives nearby. Her brother, DAVID, visited them this summer from England. Another brother GORDON is in England. Her brother ALAN adds: After 3| years in Sydney, Australia, we returned to Victoria, where I entered into partnership with an old friend to open an architectural office. We have been in business for three years and have kept busy ever since we started. Our work consists mainly of schools and residential buildings. We have been active at home in renovating a 70 year old house on a lovely piece of property here and are beginning to see the end of the heavy work, with only decorating and normal maintenance to think of. We now have five children, a dog, a cat, a canary and a sailboat on which we all went cruising last summer." Address: 1 51 Tattersall Drive, Victoria, B. C. Canada.

“...works on a part-time at home basis for Inter-Varsity Press, while JOHN works as an electrical engineer. I am still in Manila, working with student nurses. For any who do not know it, my husband Dr. Arthur Lumm went to be with the Lord in July 1964 in a drowning accident. Since 1965 I have been with the O. M. F. so will be home in furlough in '69 and happy to see any old classmates and friends. I enjoy very much the contacts here with the students. So far there are I. V. C. F. groups in only four schools, but the students are learning to take the initiative in their meetings, retreats etc., andit is good to see a slow but real work of the Holy Spirit in their lives. " From BARBARA MONSM4 (nee HARLE, 6217 Park Road McLean, Virginia 22101 (suburb of Washington): "Both my parents are now dead. My mother, EDNA SMITH HARLE died in 1960 and my father in 1964.

“...MAYBETH JUDD GRAY. "The family you once knew is here no longer except for special vacations and visits and then never all at the same time. Our first high school graduate married a little over a year ago, and is making her home a haven for lonely and confused young people . She and her husband A1 MORAN are a wonderful couple. RUTH TOLIVER has been married for almost two years, and is happily settled in Tennessee. Her two brothers are continuing to cover themselves with scholastic glory in various schools, and SYLVIA the second in the family is training as a lab technician in a big hospital near us. KATHY is the only one left of that family here, and she is deep in college entrance exams, books, catalogs and dreams, a sure sign that this is her last year here. The FREY family once three strong, are all away now. FRED is a lieutenant in the U. S. Marines, and has completed his 13 months in Vietnam. Safe home, and glad to be back, he is now preparing a sizeable group of Marines for a Mediterranean...”

“...Newmarket and other local and Toronto dignitaries, as well as a number of Chefusians. The property comprises 7 acres. There is a large rambling old house of about 15 rooms, which with alterations is now well adapted to 'teenage boys' and girls' needs. A modern kitchen makes housekeeping easy. In addition there is another building comprising a large room suitable for meetings, games and parties and two apartments are available for families of missionaries home on furlough. The local Newmarket schools are good and the proximity to Toronto (20 miles to down town) ensures easy access to higher education, museum art galleries, reference libraries and the cultural advantages of a metropolis. The Canadian "Chefoo" combines the best aspects of city and country. " ** * * * * * s(e * * * * * ;+ofc *...”
