Dear Dr. Stearns:&#13;
&#13;
Formerly I planned to study at Boston Y. M. C. Summer School. But now by the advice of my friends I have changed my mind. I have asked a Chinese who has just got his 3. B. degree from Boston University to teach me Mathematics, Algebra, and English. He is an expert in teaching these courses. He has ever taught in a middle school in China for several years. Of course I may learn more from individual teacher than from school. It doesn’t cost me very much. One hundred and twenty dollars will be enough for a month including tuition, board, and room rent. Would you please send me a check of $120 for my expenses of next month?&#13;
&#13;
Enclosed I send back a check of $100 sent from you for my summer school trution. I hope you will receive it all right.&#13;
&#13;
Yours respectfully,&#13;

&#13;
The check of $120 sent from you was duly received. Enclosed you will find my receipt. But gay former bud jet for the whole month is about $20 too low. Furthermore, I went to cure my adenoid trouble. I spent $15 in the hospital which my budget includes not. Would you please send $35 more to me for this month?&#13;
&#13;
Doctor charges me $126 for adenoid operation.I feel this bill is rather too high. I am asking him to charge me less. I don't know whether he agrees or not.&#13;

&#13;
Your favor enclosing a check for $ 140 has been received with much appreciation.&#13;
&#13;
In regard to my schooling next year I have now the idea of entering the Genesee Wesleyan Seminary, Lima, New York, instead of going to Phillip Academy. The Lima school is much smaller than Phillip but of high standard; and I think you must know some thing about it. According to my idea it would be best for me to go to a smaller school like that for the first two years, and spend the last two years in Phillip. Moreover, the expenses is much less than in Andover.&#13;
&#13;
However, as you are acting as my guardian in this country, I have to get your approval before I proceed with my proposition.&#13;
Hoping to learn from you soon,&#13;
&#13;
I am,&#13;
Yours respectfully,&#13;

Dear Dr. Stearns:&#13;
&#13;
Your letter of Aug. 26. was received this morning. I am so glad to accept your advice. But I am afraid that the entrance examination given by Phillips Academy will he too hard to me. If I fail in entrance examination, how shall I do?&#13;
&#13;
The Genesee Seminary is not a school of Theology. It is a high school established by the Methodist Episcopal Church, which also gives good courses in any field.&#13;
&#13;
With your kind advice I am now planning to go to Phillips Academy. The Chinese Students Eastern Section Annual Conference will be held in Syracuse, Lew York foam Sept. 4th to 12th. I am leaving for Syracuse to-morrow. After the conference I shall be back ime6lately. Would you please send a check of $90 to me for the expenses of next month including raidroad fares? Please send the check to the following address.&#13;
&#13;
K. Y. TU, Chinese Students’ Conference, Syracuse University, Syracuse, New York.&#13;
&#13;
Yours respectfully,&#13;

Dear Dr. Stearns:&#13;
&#13;
But since you allowed me to leave from Andover, my thought of going to Lima, New York, appears again. I can not decide it myself now. I want you to decide it for me.&#13;
&#13;
After You received my last two letters, would you please write me again about this matter and send it to the Chinese Student’s Conference, Syracuse-Univ., Syracuse, N.Y. Any how please send $70 more to me.&#13;
&#13;
Yours respectfully,&#13;
