My dear Arthur:&#13;
&#13;
On my return from a trip to the West I find your letter of January 24 with the enclosed letter from your friend. I learned also that in my absence my secretary, Miss Jones, sent you from the Treasurer’s Office a check for $25.00. Of course this obligation will be promptly met by me, though I must admit that I do not like at all the idea involved in this transaction.&#13;
&#13;
In the first place, your friend asks for $10.00 and you ask me for $25.00. I don’t quite understand the difference. Won’t you please explain?&#13;
&#13;
In the second place, I am perfectly sure that your father would not approve of your handing over his money to your friends in this way without at least the full endorsement of some responsible person like the Chinese Minister in Washington. In a case of this kind your friend should have applied to the Minister, for, if his funds from China had been cut off, the Minister is the man who will understand the situation and know how to act. Very possibly some individuals have found it difficult of late to send money from China to this country, but I myself have received within the last two or three weeks remittances not only from your father but from Admiral Tu and Mr. Tsai, which indicates that the channels of communication have not been fully interrupted yet. Frankly, I think your friend has preyed upon your sympathy and taken advantage of his society connection to an extent which I deem wholly unfair. Neither you nor your friend is going to "starve" just because of the upset conditions in China at this moment.&#13;
&#13;
Ever sincerely yours,&#13;
&#13;

&#13;
I am very sorry to learn from your letter just received that you have been having such a hard time with your teeth. All I can do is to hope with you that the trouble is now over and that you are not going to have to go through anything of this kind again. Why at your age your teeth should be found in such bad condition, I can't possibly understand, unless you have definitely neglected the care of them in the past.&#13;
&#13;
I have already mailed a check to cover the hospital expenses.&#13;
&#13;
Yes, I saw Mary in Elmira the Sunday before last and found her seemingly in the best of health and spirits. She hopes to pass her Christmas vacation with her friends in Springfield, where you ought to be able to get a chance to see her.&#13;
&#13;

                <text>My dear Mary:&#13;
&#13;
Many thanks for your Thanksgiving telegram which I found at the house on my return from Mont Vernon last night, where I had gone to have Thanksgiving dinner with my brother and sister and my two new Chinese wards, Alfred and Helen Tsai. I wonder if you know them?&#13;
&#13;
This morning’s mail brings me your letter of November 23. I was on the point of writing you about the Christmas holidays, and your suggestions, therefore, are particularly acceptable. I am perfectly willing to leave the final decision to you and shall be ready to approve of your remaining in Elmira, if that is your preference and other girls do so. the college authorities allow you to occupy your regular quarters, or must you go outside? Further, will there be anyone of authority in charge during the vacation period.&#13;
&#13;
I don’t know yet what the boys plan to do, though I imagine that Arthur will be busy with his new Job and will probably have only the day itself off. After I hear from Charlie and Tom, I can tell a bit better perhaps what you yourself should do. Of course I hope you can arrange to get together for part of the vacation, anyway, if the expense isn’t going to be serious.&#13;
&#13;
Please let me hear from you, so that I may know a little more clearly what arrangements can be counted on if you remain in Elmira, and believe me with all good wishes.&#13;
&#13;
Very sincerely yours,</text>

&#13;
Your letter of November 11 reached me Friday morning, and I forwarded, as requested, copies of the letters asked for. I did not write you at the time, because the week-end as more than usually crowded on account of the Exeter game and I had little time for my call.&#13;
&#13;
The $8.65 marked as a credit on your Filene account represents the payment of the last bill rendered by Filene and which was evidently OK'd by you at the time. I do not recall at the moment just what the items were, but if I find that they were not properly checked up by you at the time, I will see that the matter is rightly adjusted.&#13;
&#13;
Sincerely yours,&#13;

&#13;
The enclosed letter from Arthur Sun reached me this morning, and I am sending it on to you, thinking that the boy’s reactions might prove interesting to you. I am not quite sure as to how clearly he paints the real picture, though I think he is at least sincere. If you feel that under the circumstances I should advise him to do otherwise than he is now planning, please be perfectly frank to say so; though I don’t, of course, wish you to allow the matter to eat too heavily into your time and thought.&#13;
&#13;
Very sincerely yours,&#13;

                <text>Dear Arthur:&#13;
&#13;
Many thanks for your letter of November 29 and for the interesting news it contains. I am taking the liberty of sending it on to Mr. Murray, so that he may know just what you are doing and how you feel. Evidently it is proper that you should stick to your present job, for the time being at least, and I am inclined to think that you will find it increasingly valuable as you go on. If it doesn’t prove so, we can then think about other possible plans. Don’t get discouraged, anyway, but give it the very best you have in you and make yourself indispensable to your present employers. Promotion, except political promotion which never does anyone any good in the long run, comes only in this way.&#13;
&#13;
No, I have not heard from your father for a long time, and I am naturally a bit anxious in view of the very disturbing conditions that prevail in China today. Helen Tsai, my latest Chinese ward who came this past fall, tells no that she hears constantly from her parents in Peking and that they don’t seem to be unduly anxious over the situation. I can’t quite understand this but only hope that they know more about things than we do here and are justified in their optimism.&#13;
&#13;
I am dreadfully sorry to hear about the trouble you have had with your teeth. Don’t go to any but a first-class dentist. If you are to have anything savoring of an operation, it doesn’t pay either physically or financially to go to any but the best in a case of this kind. I have recently had some very important work done myself, and, if you are looking for a first-class dentist who knows what he is about, I think you would do well to consult Dr. Durant, who is now located at 6 Marlboro Street, Boston.&#13;
&#13;
With all best wishes, believe me&#13;
&#13;
Faithfully yours,&#13;

                <text>Dear Tommie:&#13;
&#13;
Have you thought at all of your plans for the coming Christmas holidays, and, if so, please let me know what you are thinking about. Mary talks of staying in Elmira, and Arthur, no doubt, will have to	be busy with his new job, with perhaps the	exception of	Christmas Day. It doesn't seem likely, therefore, that there will be very	much chance for you four to get together, though perhaps we can work something out. Please let me hear from you, anyway.&#13;
&#13;
Faithfully yours,</text>

Just a line to acknowledge the receipt of and to thank you for your mighty nice letter of November 10. You have been wonderfully nice about this Sun proposition, and I can't thank you enough.&#13;
&#13;
We shall all be disappointed not to see you at the big game next Saturday. Better luck next time!&#13;
