Also included in the International Mission Photography Archive. and In spite of twenty to thirty hours a week of work, long struggles with dictionaries and many and lengthy committee meetings, Yenching College students make time for occasional very joyous outings. The great annual affair for all students and teachers of all departments is the tree planting ceremony for those about to graduate. Our one women student, last spring, stood graceful and charming among a dozen fellow classmen from the men's college, and has since gone to our sister college, Wellesley, for post-graduate work. Our new site, north of the city, is beautiful, already with trees, but the little new class trees add much in sentiment, and are marked with tablets that none may forget the classes who have gone out.
