Stearns to K.Y. Tu. Enclosed checke for medical bills. Advises against trip to Springfield while still recovering. Explains Tu's father originally wanted Tu to help contribute to his education in the form of outside work.

States this year is the time to prove Tu can keep up with the education. Asks Tu to keep expense low, as Tu's father's financial condition is not the best.

I do hope that by this time you are well on the road to recovery. I would certainly suggest that, unless you are in the best of health, the Springfield trip be deferred, and I am not sure that you ought to spend as such as $10.00 merely for the privilege of a day’s visit with a friend at that distance. Only today I have been writing to your father in answer to letter received from him several days ago, and in which he asks me to use my judgment as to the wisdom of supplying you funds to meet all your school and living expenses. He feels, as I felt some time ago, that if you were ambitious enough to get your education to be willing to work for it and earn it yourself, he would be ready to approve that course. Naturally he feels that, in view of the little progress you have made to date, further investment of funds on his part is questionable at best. I have written him that, in view of the amount of time taken from your studies under the plan you originally adopted of doing outside work, it seemed to me utterly impossible for you to make any satisfactory progress in your studies and that in consequence I had approved of your dropping that outside work and drawing on his funds for necessary expenses. I added that I was taking this position merely to give you one last and fair chance to show us whether or not you could and would meet the scholastic tests that must be met if you were to go forward with your education and qualify for the higher work in dentistry later. So you see everything depends on what you do and achieve this year. Your father has asked me to keep our expenses down to the lowest limit, as his own financial condition is none too good. Under the circumstances if you plan to visit friends, involving a $10.00 expenditure for a single day’s visit, it seems to me that you should earn the money yourself and not draw upon your father. Isn’t that fair? Faithfully yours, Dr. Alfred E. Stearns K.Y.

Your brother’s letter contains a check, for $500.00 to be credited to your son’s account. I am glad to secure from your letter the information needed to enable me to deal properly with Kong’s case. As I have just written you, the boy is now working in Boston, and I am sure he will be delighted when he learns the good news of your willingness to allow him to try out this new arrangement and to back him financially as well as you can while he does so. The boy had reached the point where he was ready to earn his way. If necessary, in the earnest endeavor to teach the goal which you had set him. I am still a bit skeptical as to what the outcome is to be, but at least I am sure that nothing can be lost by giving Kong this extra chance and that there will be some education to him in the experience itself. In the meantime we will continue to hope for the best. Please accept my heartiest greetings and good wishes for the coming New Tear. Very sincerely yours. Admiral H.K. Tu Dr. Alfred E.

The reason for my failure to reply to your letter of November 26th earlier than this is the absence from Tientsin of my friend Mr. Hollington K. Tong for nearly a month. As you suggested I will give my son another chance to secure a higher and possibly professional education in your great country which I have no doubt will be of great assistance to him when he has to make a living for himself. I hope that Kong will do better this time and exert his utmost and I am also writing to him in this connection. It will be to his benefit if Kong can complete his high school education and then take dentistry in a school approved by yourself or learn some practical dentistry in a place where the theory is taught and at the same time he has the opportunity to have practice. But I leave the matter for the preparation of his future entirely to you. I want to thank you most sincerely for the great interest you have taken and will take in him. I have no doubt that his failure to pass examinations must have caused you keen disappointment, but in spite of this you have been so patient with him. It is unnecessary for me to say that I am very grateful to you. With greetings of the season. Yours very sincerely, Admiral H.K. Tu Dr. Alfred E. Stearns K.Y.

Additional funds have also been sent by his to be used at my discretion in helping you meet the necessary expenses connected with your work and endeavor. Under these circumstances I think you ought to cut out all outside work that does not directly aid you in securing training for the profession you have in mind. That time invested in hard study will be more valuable to you now than anything else. If in a doctor's office you can pick up knowledge that will help you in your studies, by all means keep at it and count that part of your education, but work simply for the sake of adding to your income should be dropped without question. I wish you would run out here some day and give me a chance to talk over with you the whole situation so that I can form a fair opinion as to what expenses you will be called upon to face and can advise your father accordingly. I am sending under separate cover a copy of the catalogue just received from the Springfield Training School, which I had sent for in the hope that wo might find something in it that would be of interest to you.
