I have written to Mr. Tu a stiff letter telling him that he must either cut down his expenses rigidly or secure in advance from his father sufficient funds to meet them and full authorization to use the funds for this purpose. The boy’s present method seems to be to send the word suddenly, sometimes by wire, of numerous needs and insist that the money to cover them be sent at once. I have already advanced approximately $500 beyond the funds which his father has placed in my hands and I am not willing to go any further without additional funds and the necessary instruction from home for their disposition.

My dear Dr.MacDaniels: I have your letter of December 4 relating to Mr. Tu and his medical bills. The boy contracted several bills of this character while he was in Andover, but they never amounted to more than two or three dollars, and as he explained the circumstances to me in person, they seemed to me perfectly proper. In view, however, of the size of Dr. Kober’s bill, I am of the opinion that hereafter Mr. Tu should secure your approval before contracting any more bills of this kind. I am returning Dr. Kober’s bill and will ask you kindly to have Mr. Tu O.K. it in person and return it to me. I have long made it a practice to require the personal O.K.’s of my various Chinese boys on all bills presented and before they are paid me. Very sincerely yours. Dr. Alfred E.

My dear Mr.MacDaniel: I have your letter of September 17. Thank you for writing me so frankly of my ward’s status. One thing, however, troubles me, and I must ask for a revision of the arrangement made and that is the high priced room assigned tb to. The boy’s father has recently written me that he has accepted, practically without compensation, a position with the present Peking Government and this will make it harder than ever for him to keep his boy in this country. He has asked me to curb expenses to the limit, and I am trying to carry out his request to me, although Tu seems to aid me very little in this particular matter, as he is naturally a spendthrift. The director of the camp where Tu passed the summer told me only recently that he was the hardest boy they had to handle in the whole outfit. A small single room is ample for Tu’s needs, whatever the matter of baggage and property he happens to carry with him. May I ask, therefore, that such assignment be made at once and notice of arrangement sent me. With the understanding that this will be done, I am returning the bill rendered for revision. I am not yet aware as to the character of the expenditure of the $50.00 sent you last year. Isn’t it t possible to keep me a little more fully advised? Tu wired me constantly for money to meet expenses that I had assumed would be taken care of by this deposit. Naturally I hesitate to send another check for a similar amount until I have some general idea, at least, as to the nature of its disposition. May I count, therefore, on you to advise me more fully on this point. Frankly my chief criticism in the past year is that Tu seems to have worked too much on the sympathies of his friends at Lima, who seemingly have not fully seized up his weakness or appreciated the necessity of imposing him pretty rigid limitations on his expenditures and vigorous pressure to keep him to his best intellectual effort. During the last twenty-five years I have had scores of these Chinese boys as my personal wards and I am well acquainted with the particular type, representing, I am glad to say, a very small proportion of the total number, that Tu represents. Very sincerely yours. Dr. Alfred E. Stearns Frank MacDaniel K.Y.

I am returning the same that you may keep them for record. Under the circumstances it will be best, probably, for yon to hold the $3.27 in question and let me add a bit to it, so that you may have an emergency balance in case emergencies arise. In the meantime, the boy can and should consult me about necessary expense and secure what he requires. All of my other Chinese wards regularly OK and send me for payment all the different school and college bills. In addition, they receive monthly allowances varying from $5.00 to $10.00 for purely personal expenses, really luxuries, and I can’t understand why Tu seems so unwilling to confer to this customary practice.

My dear Sir: Mr. Kai Liang, one of your former students, is applying for admission to this school. In talking with Mr. Liang I have been led to wonder whether it is not possible for him to secure from you entrance certificate to Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute which he hopes to enter later in at least a few subjects. If this Institute will grant the boy admission credits in two or three subjects it will greatly facilitate the arrangement of his schedule with us. It is rather difficult for me to make Mr. Liang understand what I mean, and so I am taking the liberty of writing to you. He hopes to enter our Senior Class, but the members of that class have all passed off by examination or secured by certificate entrance requirements of the higher institutions they expect to enter in approximately one half of the work required for admission. Probably Mr. Liang would not be able to do so well as this. Admission credits, however few, would be of the greatest value to him at this time.

I had not supposed that you expected me to pay Mr. Lee's bill, of which I had never received any notice until during the summer, out of my own pocket, or without the customary O.K. from the boy himself. As I was in the northern wilderness for my summer vacation and unable to get into communication with Lee until a few days ago only, I could not, as I thought I fully explained to you, comply with your earlier request, deeply as I regretted the fact and fully as I appreciated your own embarrassment. Since my recent interview with the boy, in the course of which I secured the long-sought approval of the bill, I have been immersed in school work, having been back at my desk for only two or three days. I have not reached your letter which, with others, is awaiting its proper turn but should have done so, in the natural course of events, within several days at the latest.

My dear Dr.MacDaniel: Thank you for your interesting letter about my young ward, K.Y.Tu. It is ture that the boy’s father has asked me to act as his American guardian during the lad’s stay in this country and that I have been accustomed to pay the boy’s bill remitted to me from time to time. The Matter of personal expenses the boy has taken care of out of a small monthly allowance which I have granted him and by O.K.ing and presenting to me for payment such incidental bills as he has found it necessary to contract. Now that he is at a distance I fully concur with your suggestion that funds should be placed in your hands, to be used as oocasion may arise and always subject to your approval. I am consequently enclosing a check for $50.00 to cover incidentals of this kind. I am also enclosing a check for $327.16, the amount of the bill rendered for the boy’s board, room, tuition, etc. This means a pretty heavy overdraft on the lad’s account as it stands to date, but I have no doubt that the father will in due time make the necessary remittance; so that I have no hesitation in assuming the responsibility of advancing the funds at this time necessary to meet the proper charges of your school.
