My dear Tu: I am distressed greatly hear that you have lost that money which I sent you recently, but it seems hard for me to believe that anyone would deliberately wander into your room in the night and take your pocketbook. School and college thieving, of which there is always some going on, is hardly ever done in just that way. Under the circumstances, I am sending you a check to cover the loss but as the balance on your account is shrinking steadily and we can’t tell, in view of the upset conditions in China, when further remittance from your father will be made, I can only repeat my warning that every possible effort be made to keep your expenses down, for if the funds on hand give out, it will, of course, be necessary for you to give up school and go to work, and it would be no easy task for you to find a paying job.

My dear Tu: Thank you for your letter and the accompanying receipts. Yes, your last report is much more satisfactory than some others I have had in the past. There is still room for improvement, however, and you must push ahead hard. If you are not able to take up the work at Andover next year and od it well, you will not have covered nearly so much ground in the time you have already been studying in this country as your other countrymen who have been here in the past have done. I do not want you to fall before below their high standard; nor do I wish you to start in on the Andover career without being able to make good. I am enclosing check for $15.00 to cover the tennis racket, as requested. Take good care of it. A racket costs a good deal in these days, but its life can be much prolonged by proper handling.

Before I send you any more, I must know a statement covering the expenditure of the $85.00 which I sent you at the beginning of the spring vacation. This is important. I don’t know whether you hear regularly from your father in these days of chaos and confusion in China, but I can’t help repeating the warning, for I know that the uncertainty which prevails there with the present situation makes it infinitely more important than ever that you should limit your expenditure, for the present at least, to the actual necessities of life.

Apparently Philadelphia offers you your best chance if, as you intimate, you are bound to go to some big city for your vacation. Of the scores of Chinese boys who have been under my charge in recent years, a large number have regularly stayed through the vacation periods in their school or college towns, both to save expense and to do further work on their studies. So far as I can recall, I have never received from you any intimation that such a desirable course was to be even considered. That is the chief reason I am always disturbed when your vacation periods come around. As it is impossible for me to argue this with you at this long distance, I am sending you, though very reluctantly, the necessary funds to cover the vacation expense. I can’t refrain from emphasizing again, however, the tremendous importance of keeping your expenses to the lowest possible limit, and largely because of the terribly upset conditions in China today and the naturally uncertain status of your father’s affairs. Of course if the funds from China cease coming for the above reasons, it will be necessary for you to give up your schooling entirely and go to work to earn money, if any work can be found. That is why I am more distressed than you can imagine to have you draw on your present limited balance to any extent beyond that which absolute necessity demands. If you do use the money in the way intimated, be sure to send me a detailed account of all expenditures. Sincerely yours, Dr. Alfred E. Stearns K.Y.

My dear Tu: I have your letter of recent date and suppose that the bill rendered must be paid, though I heartily disapprove of it. School rings are foolish at best, especially gold ones. They are almost uncalled for is any case, except in the cases of seniors. As a matter of fact you will install probability enter some other school next fall and then your expensive ring will be out of place and something of a burden. If you care to pay for this out of your monthly allowance, that is your privilege, but the bill certainly do not properly belong among the necessary expenses of your education which your father must make sacrifices to insect. You say that you have paid the amount already out of your monthly expenses, but the bill rendered is not receipted: so I am returning it that you may have it properly receipted.

Nothing could give me greater pleasure than the receipt of a present of this kind, for the earlier cloisonne work of your wonderfully clever artists has always appealed very strongly to me, and the few pieces that I already possess have been among my most valued treasures. I did not dream, when you wrote of sending me a small Christmas token, that you for a moment thought of sending me anything so valuable as the gifts which are now on my parlor table. They make me very humble when I think how little I have done to deserve them, but I am sure that they will prove an added incentive to me to strive hard in the future to carry out your wishes for your boy. My thanks are very hearty and sincere, and I shall al aye think of your friendly generosity when X look upon these visible tokens of your good will. Even if the Christmas season for which they were intended, did not record their arrival and nearly two months have passed since that holiday. I am taking some satisfaction in the thought that they have reached me about the time of your own New Year holiday season, which, in turn, comes the nearest of anything to embracing the holiday spirit that we associate here with Christmas.
