I have now forwarded the photographs of 53 individuals, taken in March of 1943, shortly after the arrival of internees in Weihsien, to Leopold. Hopefully he can get them up on his website and we can identify some of these individuals. Leopold recognized his mother in a shot of internees leaving camp on a transport plane, and Judith Hamin recognized herself and her husband Boris playing the piano. I'm sure others in the photos are still out there.

To be quite honest, I can't remember what Mrs. De Jong looked like now, except that she was a big woman. (a bit on the fat side.) And at 41 years of age, with 8 kids already, she couldn't have looked as young as the girl in 30e. Sorry, Janette. Now, 10e and 10f could be sisters, don't you think? That's why I think it could be a help to know where they came from. And I'm getting into more trouble with my wife for living in the past! Ha, Ha!

Fr. de Jaegher wore glasses and had a round face. If I can locate the photo (I mentioned earlier to you) I'll forwarded it and you will see what I mean. I've been looking long and hard at #08e and the boy looks very much like John Beruldsen (14)who was a year older and a grade above me at the Peking American School. By the way, I did not read Greg's note properly, so forget my question about which camp they all came from, and amend the ages I put on my earlier email which was estimated age at 1945 in lieu of 1943. And further more, some look too happy to be arriving in camp, but with so many wearing hats, I admit they do look like they are going some where !

W.H.(Tony) Tolland was a pre war friend of our family. And it could aid the identification process if we knew or saw the setting from which the remaining 52 came.

In order to ensure competitive advantage, they must be able to promote high levels of professional performance. This research is part of this theme and aims to analyze how the job characteristics, professional knowledge, skills, competencies, training and work engagement influence the job evaluation and, consequently, the performance of employees of six public hospitals, China. The sample consists of 546 subjects aged between 21 and 58 years (M = 37.9; SD = 8.73), with the majority being females (55.5%). For the collection of data, such scales were used as the Job Diagnostic Survey (JDS), the Knowledge, Skills, Abilities, and Other Personal Characteristics Scale (KSAOS), the Competencies and Training Scale (CTS) and the Utrecht Work Engagement Scale (UWES). The results obtained show that the job characteristics, the professional knowledge, the skills, the training and the work engagement influence the job evaluation. It was also found that the male respondents, those belonging to the older age group, those with higher academic qualifications and those with higher positions present higher average performance in all dimensions under study.

  • The Liberal Arts Curriculum in China's Christian
    THE LIBERAL ARTS CURRICULUM IN CHINA’S CHRISTIAN UNIVERSITIES AND ITS RELEVANCE TO CHINA’S UNIVERSITIES TODAY by Leping Mou A thesis submitted in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts Department of Leadership, Higher and Adult Education Ontario Institute for Studies in Education University of Toronto © Copyright by Leping Mou 2018 The Liberal Arts Curriculum in China’s Christian Universities and Its Relevance to China’s Universities Today Leping Mou Master of Arts Department of Leadership, Higher and Adult Education Ontario Institute for Studies in Education University of Toronto 2018 Abstract This thesis considers the historical background, the development, and the characteristics of China’s Christian universities, with a special focus on their curriculum design. Through the lens of postmodern theory, the thesis explores the concept and essence of liberal arts education as reflected in the curriculum of the Christian universities through a qualitative methodology, focusing on the analysis of historical archival material. The purpose is to find insights for today’s trend towards reviving liberal arts education in China’s elite universities as a way of countering the influence of utilitarianism and neo-liberalism in an era of economic globalization. ii Acknowledgements The completion of this Master thesis marks the accomplishment of two years’ academic study at the Ontario Institute for Studies in Education (OISE). Along with my hard work, it is made possible because of the insightful suggestions and guidance from OISE's erudite professors and the help and support from family and friends. It is also an encouragement for me to proceed to further doctoral study.

  • Chinese: Identity and the Internment of Missionary Nurses in China, 1941–1945
    When We Were (almost) Chinese: Identity and the Internment of Missionary Nurses in China, 1941–1945 SONYA GRYPMA* Between 1923 and 1939, six China-born children of United Church of Canada North China missionaries returned to China as missionary nurses during one of the most inauspicious periods for China missions. Not only was the missionary enterprise under critical scrutiny, but China was also on the verge of war. Three of the nurses were interned by the Japanese in 1941. This study focuses on the pivotal decisions these nurses made to return to China and then to remain there after the outbreak of the Sino-Japanese war in 1937, tracing the influences on those decisions back to their missionary childhoods in Henan. De 1923 a` 1939, six enfants ne´s en Chine de missionnaires que l’E´ glise Unie du Canada avait envoye´es en Chine du Nord sont retourne´es en Chine en tant qu’infir- mie`res missionnaires durant l’une des pe´riodes les plus inhospitalie`res pour des mis- sions en Chine. Non seulement scrutait-on l’action missionnaire a` la loupe, mais la guerre e´tait sur le point d’e´clater en Chine. Trois des infirmie`res ont e´te´ interne´es par les Japonais en 1941. Cette e´tude met l’accent sur la de´cision de´terminante que ces infirmie`res ont prise de retourner en Chine puis d’y rester apre`s l’e´clatement de la guerre sino-japonaise en 1937, retrac¸ant les motifs de cette de´cision jusqu’a` leur enfance missionnaire a` Henan.

  • Shantung Christian University Jinan (Shandong Sheng, China)
    Shantung Christian University Jinan (Shandong Sheng, China) American Presbyterian, English Baptist, Anglican, and Canadian Presbyterian mission agencies worked together to form what came to be known as Shantung Christian University. The University's earliest roots went back to Tengchow College, which was established by American Presbyterians in 1882 with Calvin Mateer as its leader. In 1902 the Presbyterians and English Baptists agreed to combine their efforts in higher education in Shantung, forming an Arts College at Weihsien, a Theological College at Tsingchowfu, and a Medical College, which was eventually established in Tsinan. By 1909 it had been determined that the University should be consolidated in one location, and Tsinan was chosen. Fundraising efforts for a new campus in Tsinan were led by Henry W. Luce and the Chicago architectural firm of Perkins, Fellows and Hamilton was engaged to design the buildings. Luce was a very effective fundraiser but he did not see eye-to-eye with the president of the University regarding the manner in which the funds should be spent. He resigned from Shantung rather unexpectedly in 1917 and went on to do successful fundraising for Yenching University. Cheeloo, as the Shantung Christian University was called informally, was renowned for its medical education program. Even before the main campus was ready, plans for a hospital carefully drawn and building operations begun in 1914, under guidance of Harold Balme. Between 1916 and 1923 the former Peking Union Medical College, the Medical Department of Nanking University, the Hankow Medical College, and the North China Union Medical College for Women all were moved to Tsinan, the five schools combining to form the Cheeloo University School of Medicine.

  • Protestant Medical Missionary Experience During the War in China 1937–1945: the Case of Hubei Province
    Protestant Medical Missionary Experience During the War in China 1937–1945: The Case of Hubei Province Jocelyn Mary Chatterton School of Oriental and African Studies, University of London Submitted for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy 1 Declaration I undertake that all material presented for examination is my own work and has not been written for me, in whole or in part, by any other person(s). I also undertake that any quotation or paraphrase from the published or unpublished work of another person has been duly acknowledged. ______________________________________________________ 2 Abstract During the war medical missionaries were able to demonstrate fully their raison d’être of service and professionalism to the Chinese and their fellow countrymen. In retrospect it can be seen that the war proved to be a golden age of opportunity for individual medical missionaries providing them with professional, personal and religious opportunity. It was a period when they felt both needed and wanted in China, and they showed great resourcefulness in response to the constraints placed upon their professional work as a result of military action. When those in occupied China lost all contact with their home bases medical missionaries shouldered additional administrative responsibilities which increased their already heavy workload. Whether in Free, or occupied China, medical missionaries were forced to make their own decisions in the field, and the bureaucratic-professional relationship with their home bases became strained. On the ground they experienced a flowering of inter-denominational co-operation. While responsible for the health of their fellow internees in the internment camps some medical missionaries were unexpectedly subjected to accusations of inexperience and nepotism.
