I am glad that the arrangement with Mrs. Nye proves so acceptable to not only you and Alfred but your father as well. I am sorry to learn that you have been ill. This is the time of year, however, when it is pretty difficult to get through without some slight illness, and we have been having our share among the boys - mostly German measles. All have been light cases, but they have been terribly annoying and decidedly interrupting to school work. Shortly after Christmas I received a letter from your father in which he asked me to purchase and give to you and Alfred from him as Christmas presents some good books that you would wish to add to your libraries and hold for the future. As the letter came too late to permit me to carry out the request at the Christmas season and as the period following Christmas was more than usually busy, I delayed doing my part of the job. Recently, however, I picked some books that I felt would measure up to your father's requirements and meet his wishes, and I am sending you yours by parcel post. Please understand that they are a present from your father to you, and I hope very much that you will enjoy and profit by them. They are what we would call standard works, since it seemed better to me to secure something of that kind rather than a book that might be popular at the moment but the later value of which would perhaps be questionable. With all best wishes to you, believe me Very sincerely yours, Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource Alfred E.

Stearns to Arthur Sun, Boston, February 11, 1927 Subject The topic of the resource Letter from Alfred E. Stearns to Arthur Sun, Boston, February 11, 1927 Relation A related resource Dear Arthur: I have your letter of February 8 and the accompanying telegram from Mary. The telegram I am returning herewith, but I can’t quite understand what it meant. The reference to her room is wholly unintelligible to me. Just what is it all about? I had a letter from your father, written December 23, and I quote from my reply to that letter: "Arthur had already written me of your expressed wish that he should remain in this country for another year to continue practical work. He is much distressed over your decision and has begged me to do what I can to encourage you to feel that he should be permitted to return to China at the end of this current year. Of course I am not in a position to assume any authority in a matter of this kind; so that I am only expressing the wish that Arthur has voiced to me, a wish which I have no doubt he has already conveyed to you as well. At just this moment it happens that Mary has shown pretty vigorous symptoms of home sickness and has voiced to me and others her earnest desire to be permitted to return to China this coming summer. She wrote me that her work was getting out of her reach and that she feared failure. Believing that her mental condition had something to do with it, I wrote to Dr. Sze in Washington asking if he would kindly investigate through some of his friends in Elmira the exact situation and advise me accordingly. Dr. Sze was good enough to do this and sent me for examination a letter received from one of the officers of the institution from whom he had sought information. From the letter in question it would seem that Mary's work is not beyond her reach, that she is making a good, though not brilliant, record in her studies, and that her present depression is due, in part at least, to a somewhat run-down physical condition attended by a cold. Miss French, who wrote to Dr. Sze, assured him that Mary was having every possible attention and care and that there was good reason to believe that her cold would soon be mastered and her physical condition generally improved. With such a change we are all hoping for a better attitude on her part. Isn’t it just possible that the upset conditions in China have influenced your father’s attitude? Isn’t it also possible that you may be able to secure more on the subject from Minister Sze in Washington? I imagine that the Minister is in fairly close touch with the situation in China end can perhaps interpret better than I can your father’s attitude. I like the idea of a night course at Boston University, provided you do not allow this to become too heavy a strain on your time and strength. That won’t pay. I am enclosing check for $39.00. payable to the Boston University Treasurer, as requested. I also enclose check for $20.00, which I understand is what you require for the balance of the month to supplement your income on the job. Don’t hesitate to let me know if you get any further light on Mary’s situation. Evidently she is magnifying her own difficulties for the letter which the Dean wrote Minister Sze indicates that she is doing her work in a satisfactory way and has no occasion to be unduly anxious about the results. Apparently homesickness is at the bottom of it all. Faithfully yours, Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource Alfred E.

I am glad to know that you are going to be able to make the Washington trip for the spring vacation. This is the best possible way you could spend the holidays, and I am sure that Mr. and Mrs. Sze will give you a wonderfully good time. Yes, I read of the suicide of one of your Elmira girls and naturally I was shocked. A girl must be pretty poor stuff to play the supreme coward in a way like that and only because she had incurred a just penalty for misbehavior. No girl, unless she had been badly spoiled or was temporarily out of her mind, could have done such a contemptible thing as to take her own life, bringing thereby on her family and friends who are wholly innocent tragic sorrow and broken hearts. I hope she was no friend of yours. I can’t for the moment recall whether your reports came to me or not. If they did, I sent them on to your father. In any case I had already heard from the Dean what they were likely to be, and I congratulate you on coming through so well. As I wrote you earlier, I felt sure you could and would pass the work and that your expressed discouragement was not in any way justified. Can’t you do something to get your landlady to improve the heat in your room. It is not right that you should be forced to wear coats in the house, and something must be wrong.
