Mr. Alfred E. Steams, &#13;
Phillips Academy.&#13;
Andover, Massachusetts, U. S. A.&#13;
&#13;
My dear Mr. Stearns.&#13;
&#13;
I have received your letter of November 15th and what to thank you most sincerely for the parental interest you have been taking in my son.&#13;
&#13;
I am happy to learn that my son has been doing much better this year along the lines mentioned in your last letter. I am naturally very grateful to you and also to the head of his school who has promised full co-operation in the efforts to make the boy realize the value of money and of education.&#13;
&#13;
I feel certain that my boy will highly appreciate the real friendship you have shown to him, the good advice you have given and the guidance you have been exercising over him when he has to bump himself against the world irrespective of what sentiment he may now entertain towards you.&#13;
&#13;
I am always interested in whatever reports you may take the trouble of sending regarding my boy and hope that you will continue doing your best for him. Be kind enough to impress upon him the necessity to learn self-reliance and the inadvisability of depending too much upon his father especially at a time like the present when there is so much vicissitude in the world.&#13;
&#13;
My son does not write to me often. I shall be obliged if you will ask him to let me hear from him now and then. Distance between us ought not stand in the way of knowing each other’s thoughts end aspirations, if he can cultivate a habit to write me two letters a month, it will be of great benefit to himself as well as it would tend to remove my anxiety about him.&#13;
&#13;
Thanking you again for the valuable service you have been rendering to my boy and hoping that I may hear from you again.&#13;
&#13;
With greetings of the season. &#13;

Mr. F. S. Tu&#13;
684 Kong Lok Li&#13;
Connaught Road &#13;
Shanghai, China &#13;
&#13;
My dear Mr. Tu&#13;
&#13;
I beg to acknowledge the receipt of your kind letter of December 21 with enclosed check for $600.00 which, as requested, I have deposited to the account of your nephew, K.Y.Tu, to be used for the necessary expenses in connection with hie American life and education. I am sending your brother this week the semiannual statement of the boy’s account.&#13;
&#13;
I note the message which you desire me to convey to your nephew. Let me say that the sentiments you have expressed have my heartiest endorsement and that I have on various occasions sought to impose these same ideals on the lad who,up to date, has not seemed to develop a very seirous purpose or a clear understanding of the opportunities offered him and the responsibilities which are naturally his. I believe the boy has changed for the better in this respect this last term, and I am hopeful that still better reports may be forthcoming as the year goes on. &#13;
&#13;
If it is not too late, may I extend to you and yours my heartiest good wishes for a happy and prosperous New Year and the hope that the disturbed conditions which seem to prevail in China today may speedily disappear with attendant peace and justice to all.&#13;
&#13;
Very sincerely yours, &#13;

Mr. K.Y.Tu&#13;
Genesee Wesleyan Seminary&#13;
Lima, N.Y.&#13;
&#13;
My dear Tu: &#13;
&#13;
I have just received a letter from your uncle, Mr.F.S.Tu, with the request that I should convey to you this message: “That time once gone will never return, the time for studying, that is in the time of youth, is very short, in comparison with the length of time in manhood, so there is ample time for pleasure, when education and knowledge have been acquired during the days of youth, thereby there will remain nothing to regret in the long days to come.” &#13;
&#13;
Your uncle adds that your father has been mush disappointed in your failure to make greater progress in your studies and in your seeming lack of a sense of responsibility about your financial affairs. I have written your father that in this latter respect I feel that you have shown definite improvement this year, and I earnestly hope that my belief will prove fully justified by a continued improvement in this respect on your part so that I may later assure your father that you are steadily gaining in this as well as in other ways. &#13;
&#13;
One other thing: I am not willing that you should stay at your present school beyond this current year. It is imperative that you should enter by that time a school of higher and more advanced standing, but to carry the harder work successfully it is equally important that you should give your very best endeavors to the work you are now called upon to do.&#13;
&#13;
Very sincerely yours.&#13;

Admiral H.K.Tu &#13;

Peking, China&#13;
&#13;
My dear Mr. Tu:&#13;
&#13;
I have delayed answering your letter of November 26 in the hope that I might be able to acknowledge receipt of and thank you for the onerous Christens tokens which you refer to as having sent me by American express.  So far the box has not yet appeared but I am just as grateful to you for the thought, even though the actual objects may have been lost. It was good of you to think of me, especially at the Christmas season, though it is my earnest wish that you should not feel that you are in any way obligated to me because of the little that I have tried, and am still trying to do for year son. I count it a real privilege to be able to help these youngsters from a foreign land to make the most of their Amarican stay and connections, and I have derived a great deal of enjoyment in the attempt.&#13;
&#13;
I think it only fair to say that your boy appears to be facing his financial obligations this year with a much keener sense of responsibility than he had previously shown. While his natural inclination is to spend freely, he seems at least to have kept his expenses pretty well within bound since current school year opened. I  am not sure that he is making quite so good progress in his studies as he ought to make. I have constantly urge him and his instructors as well to &#13;
&#13;
 We are naturally concerned over the reports that reach us from China these days, and I can only hope that matters will eventually and speedily adjust themselves on a plane that represents complete justice to all and that will guarantee for the future a strong and united nation. I can well imagine that the strain upon you must be very great in these uncertain days, and my sympathy and good will go out to you in fullest measure.&#13;
Wishing you a truly happy and prosperous New Year and with kind personal regards, believe me&#13;
&#13;
	 Very sincerely yours.&#13;
