Anyone who attended school in Chefoo, especially those who were interned in Weihsien, know who Jim Moore is. Former Chefoo student, he later joined the War effort with the US Navy, and in 1945 he was selected to join the small band of parachutists assigned to jump from 500 feet into a field beside the internment camp in Weihsien to officially liberate the 2,000 people who had...”

“...The Chefoo Magazine Page 2 EDITOR’S NOTEBOOK From where I sit, the past year has been both exciting and disappointing as far as the Chefoo Schools Association is concerned. On the brighter side I feel very much the hub of the Association as I receive communications almost daily, from Chefusians all over the globe, primarily by email, but also by regular mail. The constant theme is gratitude for all the “work" I am doing on behalf of the Chefusians. It is truly gratifying to be constantly thanked for having fun! A second highlight has been the increase in the number of dues paying members, as a fairly significant number of old scholars have come on board, especially the Ku I i ng contingent, many of who are now reaching the age where it is as interesting to look back as looking to the future. To a large extent the growth has been through 'word of mouth’. Special credit is due to Marjorie (Butler) Reeble in Australia, who is doing a superb job of contacting Chefusians, organizing reunions...”

“...a field office, which was good because it meant a promotion, and what not. I ended up there until I retired in January of '78. I have been in Dallas ever since, except we spent a year in Washington. They had one of these stupid deals that you couldn’t be a field chief unless you had a year of training in headquarters. But even there I was lucky because a man who was in charge of the Dallas office decided to leave early, so I went there within the year. KG: In looking back on your association with Chefoo Schools what impact did that have on your life? I think it certainly taught me respect for my elders. I think it taught me punctuality. It gave me a great love for the English. I am a great Anglophile; I mean they would keep telling me how great the British were. Pa Bruce said one time, in a class in geography, or something, that he had been to New York and it really didn’t compare to London, and actually I agreed with him completely. So I have always been a big admirer of the British. One...”

“...Medical Officer. When we arrived in Ontario in May 1969 there was, guess what - a doctor shortage or at least a shortage of doctors who would work in rural areas, and so the Nancekivilles (a good Devonshire name) welcomed us with open arms. Ivan and I worked in association in rural family practice until 2001 when I retired from office practice, but kept going looking after nursing home patients, which I still do. The other big recent change has been the closing down of our dairy farm (50 milking Holsteins) in May 2004 and selling it to a sod farmer four months later. I would have found this a devastating experience except that milk quotas brought a good price! Being semi-retired has enabled us to travel and we have been to China and Chefoo, Russia, Turkey, and we plan (terrorists permitting) to go to Egypt in November this year. We also seem to be spending increasing amounts of the winter in Florida. My sister Margaret (who is 2 years older than me) is going to celebrate her 80th birthday in...”

“...kwikkopy.ca CHEFOO SCHOOLS The Chefoo School was established in 1881 by the China Inland Mission at Chefoo (Yantai) in Northern China to provide an education for the children of missionaries, and the business and diplomatic communities. The school operated at various locations in China until 1952, then left China to relocate in South East Asia (see column to the left on this page). The last Chefoo School, in Tanah Rata, Malaysia, was closed in June 2001. THE CHEFOO SCHOOLS ASSOCIATION The Chefoo Schools Association was founded in 1908. Its purpose is to operate an association for all former scholars and members of the staff of the Chefoo Schools; to sustain interest amongst its members in matters concerning the Schools and in one another; to afford means whereby its members are kept in touch with one another; and to promote friendly relationships between all persons in any way connected with the Schools. MEMBERSHIP OF THE ASSOCIATION All former scholars and members of staff of the Schools are eligible...”
