“...is in a Nursing Home - paralysed on both sides. STAN RIST (1923-33) Referring to p36 of the Summer '96 magazine - Please note I am not living ‘conceitedly’ at a Senior’s Residence, but ‘contentedly’. I don’t know if the error is mine or your! (Editor - definitely mine. Many apologies) but hope it wasn’t noticed by too many readers who know me. If I am conceited about anything it is my association with Chefoo Schools (‘God forbid that I should glory save in the cross of Jesus Christ'.) NORVIN ROTHSCHILD (1930-40) Once again I am pleased to report that by and large, things seem to be in a satisfactory condition. I’m still able to make my way from the bedroom to the breakfast table in the morning, for my usual dose of caffeine, sucrose and lactose (with a small nod to the ‘in’ drug lexicon) to which I became addicted while in service. (Of course, that might well have been a hundred years ago, in a different world, where, in those days, we simply called it coffee, with sugar and milk.) Generally...”

“...over, ice cream is always a special treat. Thank you all for your generosity. It has been a privilege and a pleasure to receive the Chefoo magazine. Having joined OMF nine years ago, I have read a lot of stories and facts about Chefoo schools. We have always wanted to send our children to a Chefoo school, probably Malaysia since we are working in Thailand. We knew our children would receive the best care and a great education. When OMF decided to set up a children’s home or hostel in Chiang Mai, Thailand we were delighted. This way we could keep our children in Thai culture and only 13 hours away by train and receive the great Chefoo care. We have the best of both worlds. What I want to say is that reading from the Chefoo magazine, not only are Chefoo schools places where children are well cared for and receive a good education, there are places where children (and dorm parents) make life long friendships and develop a real sense of camaraderie. It has been great to be part of this process...”

“...languages. We are praying for Korean speaking Dorm Parents preferably on a long-term basis. Anne Latimer CHEFOO CHIT CHAT Miss Logie writes....... Around School Chefoo is inundated with slaves although no whips have had to be cracked I All the children are falling over themselves to rush and complete any tasks the staff can dream up as part of our ‘Rent a Slave Week’. The slaves are trying to earn as much money as they can (yes earn; it seems that slaves do not work for ‘nothing’ in Christian schools). They will then be able to give their earnings to our Thanksgiving Offering which this year will go to help the Oranc Asli survivors from a settlement near Kampar, that was destroyed by heavy rain and floods in August. Rumour has it that Uncle John and Uncle Stuart wish to hire the whole army o‘ slaves in order to clean up their living quarters! When slavish duties are done our talented crew can be seen cultivating their skills as budding thespians. All the children are involved in re-enacting...”

“...Greenwich. About one hundred years ago it was chosen for the school because it was such a healthy climate, unlike other parts of China which were very unhealthy, damp and malarial. The teachers found it so invigorating that they worked themselves almost to death without realising just how tired they were. It was also a very beautiful place, with hills behind and a three-quarters landlocked bay in front. The view was always changing, and the sea was very much part of our lives, as were the hills. The schools were built along the beach; the prep school was right on the beach with just a little road between. It was a very windy building. Once I looked up the temperature at school and was very impressed because during the winter it was the same as in Norway, and in the summer it was the same as North Africa, a really continental climate. Autumn and Spring were beautiful, very pleasant but extremely short. In summer it could be very hot and in winter I hardly ever seemed to be warm enough. I was reading...”

“...stone engraved in gold, in English and Chinese, set up in the camp grounds, near the former church where Liddell often preached, and the sports field where he coached all the young people’s sports. To his delight the Chinese prepared a beautiful walled garden with a moongate for the memorial. My brother Norman Cliff, and David Michell, then OMF National Director for Canada, dedicated the stone to the music of bagpipes and then Chinese music accompanying dancing schoolgirls. We were at a Chefoo Schools Association Reunion in London in July 1994, when it was announced that a trip was planned for a visit to China in Sept 1995. I protested and said it must coincide with the 50th anniversary of our liberation from Weihsien camp, August 17th. And so the dates were altered so that we would be at Weifang (new name) on that date. But as the day approached there were so few people who had booked that we wondered whether the tour would take place. Only three Chefusians, Theo Bazire, Neil Yorkston and...”
