Stearns, March 23, 1928 Subject The topic of the resource Letter from Charles Sun, Amherst, Mass., to Alfred E. Stearns, March 23, 1928 Relation A related resource Dear Dr. Stearns: Your letter, Sir, worried me quite a bit, for I thought there is a possibility of not letting my father know of the matter. I wish so not because I am afraid of the consequences that will come to me but rather what effect it will have on my father. Ten years back my father would perhaps be very angery [sic] at my folly, but now that he is very old, he would probably feel very bad in that I have disobeyed by not asking your permission first before doing a thing. It will not anger him but it will make him heartbroken to hear that I, who have gradually gained his confidence for the last few years, should have done a thing as this. For this reason I prefer to keep the news secrete from him. As for the payment, I think I can manage it in time. Since the fellow driving was solely responsible for the accident, I have asked him to bear half of the expense, and I have written him in China. On the other hand, since I was a foolish enough owner to let him operate it, I should bear the other half. He, I am sure, will give me a fair deal; while I can meet my obligation by going to work this summer. This in short is what I believe should be done, but, of course, your judgment will be final; please let me know your feeling about it. In talking about work this summer, I might ask your advice and permission right now. A friend of mine has recommended me a position to a camp in Vermont, where by being a leader I can receive my board and room free for the entire summer, that is, from June 23 to September 1. Judging from what experience of camp life I had in your camp and Long Lake Lodge, I feel that I might be qualified to take care of the boys, who range from six to thirteen years old. The name of the camp is "Abnaki", situated on Lake Champlain, Vermont and administrated solely by B.N. Clark of the Vermont State Committee of the Young Men’s Christian Association. If you wish to know more of the camp, I can send you its catalogue. Another matter which I like to take up with you now is my graduate work. A letter from my father recently has shattered all my hope of entering a military school. My father sent me an urging to foresake that line of profession, an urging that is equal to a forbiddance. But he gave me some good reasons for so doing as did you, Sir. My political science professor too, on hearing my intention, had tried to induce me to abandon the idea; he even gave me some information about Municipal Administration, which I told him was my second preference and which is not far from law, a thing that my father likes to have me take up. When I receive further information on the matter from New York, I shall write you again, and your advice will always be valued by me. I received a very interesting letter from Quincy the other day. He is teaching at Kwang Hua University in Shanghai; next year he is going to give a course in comparative literature. The father of a former Andover boy by the name of S.L. Chang ’21, I think, is the President of this university, and T.Y. Lee P.A. ’23 and Amherst ’27 is teaching political science and history in the same place. It seems that Andover spirit may some day be manifested.

Stearns, February 14, 1928 Subject The topic of the resource Letter from Thomas Sun, Middlebury College, to Alfred E. Stearns, February 14, 1928 Relation A related resource Dear Mr. Stearns, I went down to New York for a few days this last Christmas vacation with Charlie, and I dare say that I learn much from the trip. The thing that I have in mind is that I can not get along with the Chinese very well, not that I don’t like them, but I can not talk to them. I am ashamed to admit this, but as the circumstances are, I have to do so. I can talk to them, but with very simple Chinese; I forgot all my good Chinese. When they say something I must hesitate that I might give them the wrong answer. Whenever I write home I will have to look up the words in the dictionary. I forgot so much of my Chinese that I think that it time for me to do something. The only thing left for me to do is that I must come in contact more with the Chinese than I do now. Columbia, N.Y.U., Harvard, or Amherst have Chinese there, but I have such a place in my heart for Middlebury, that it is very hard for me to transfer to any other college. I really love this college more than I can express with words, but on the other hand I must do something to get back my Chinese. College fraternity and popularity are all right, but after all when I go home I will have to work shoulder to shoulder with my fellow Chinese. As the situation stands now I do not know any Chinese so that I can write to them even, and how are they going to work with me and trust me. When I was down New York, I was very lonely, and the same is true when I was in Boston last summer. I mingle with American boys, and as you might say that "I am Americanized.” It is good to know the American while I am in this country, but to a certain extent only, but I have gone a little too far in knowing them. And as a result I became one of them. The fellows and girls in College here look at me as an American, and I was glad when the Y.W.C.A. asked me to speak before them on something about China. That was the only sign that I received here in College that reminds me that I am a Chinese. Don’t you think that it is time that I should do something. I am completely lost and don’t know what to do. I hope that you can enlighten me to this matter.

The problem you raise is too big for me to attempt to aid you in solving it through the media of a letter. My suggestion is that you plan to come down here during your Easter holiday so that we can have a chance to talk the thing out face to face. Frankly, though, I don’t see how you are going to keep your Chinese up much better if you drift to New York or some other center where there are more of your countrymen unless you do it at the expense of the college work which is your main job for the moment. I can not believe that your case can be very different from that of many Chinese boys who have been here before you and who on the return to their native land, while embarrassed a bit at first, have easily and promptly been able to revive and make use again of their native tongue.

It seems to me better to handle the matter in this way. Please let me know, however, in case any delay occurs in the receipt of the checks. I have asked Sun to forward those to you at once and hope that he will be able to do so, though it is just possible that he may be away for a few days during his college vacation. Please let me thank you for the courtesy extended to me and my ward in this matter. It is always a source of satisfaction to deal with responsible firms and their gentlemanly representatives.

This will make it possible for you to handle the matter through your own funds and will not force me to send the detailed statement to your father. In other words, I am remitting you a lump sum towards your general expenses. Out of that you will pay the Company and in time you should be able to make reimbursements for the expenses, in part at least, through your own efforts, as you have already suggested. Please note in the second paragraph how the checks should be made out. Send them all to Mr. Hatch, the writer of the enclosed letter, at the address given in Springfield The AEtna Insurance Company, and then please return Mr. Hatch’s letter to me. I already have the waivers to which he refers, but they will not be operative, of course, until the money has been received by the Aetna Co.
