He is now pursuing his studies in our lowest class and is taking special work at that, laying chief emphasis on English in which he is still badly deficient. Even so, I believe that his instructors confirm the impression that the boy is not getting enough out of the work to justify the expense and time involved on the other hand were he to devote the balance of the current school year to perfecting his English, there is every possibility, if not probability, that he would be able to return to us in the fall and handle in a satisfactory way the regular subjects of our school curriculum. I am writing you frankly as I am sure you wish me to do. Liang’s spirit is of the best; and we would be delighted to have him remain if he honestly felt that he was getting his money’s worth. I desire, of course, to cooperate with yon in every way in deciding what is actually best for the boy in the long run. Very sincerely yours, Dr. Alfred E. Stearns K.C.

In discussing the case recently I found that there was general agreement among the boy's instructors that he needs, for the present at least, the environment and stimulus of a smaller school where he will receive personal and intimate guidance in his studies. A year in a school of this kind would perhaps fit the boy to meet the requirements of a large school like Philipps Academy. We have frequently recommended this plan for boys in similar circumstances in the past, and generally with excellent results. In advising strongly that this course be adopted in the case of Mr. Liang we are hopeful that after a year passed in this way the boy will be able to return to Andover and complete his work here with credit. If I can in any way aid you in finding a school of this character, I shall be only too glad to be of service. Very sincerely yours, Dr. Alfred E. Stearns K.C. Li Peter W.
