You have asked for very little of late and I am anxious that you should have whatever you actually need, for I know that this must be father's wish as well.

I am answering it today from Andover, as I am back here for a day or two, at least. Yes, your father had already written me about your position for next fall, and I congratulate you, and heartily. I don't know much about the mission in question, but have no doubt that the experience would prove of real value to you, and will be very likely also to pave the way for something worth while when you return to China. In the meantime, make the most you can of your work in stenography this summer, for in a secretarial capacity you will find that indispensable. I can't tell you just where I will be the first of August. In all probability I shall be at the Lake, though the chance are that one or two more trips down here during the summer will develop.

The work which you tell me you are to do this summer sounds most interesting, and I have no doubt that you will derive great and permanent profit from it, even though it may naturally prove a bit distasteful at times. Incidentally, may I say again how please I have been at the reported improvement in your work at Yale, and the seeming evidence that you are beginning to get a grip on it and on yourself.

I am immensely pleased and immensely proud of you. What I I like most of all about the whole record is the fact that it has shown steady improvement from the start, and that generally means more in the end than high marks by themselves alone. I hope you will have a most satisfactory and profitable course at Columbia this summer, and that you will enjoy and profit by the renewed contacts with your Chinese friends. Be sure to pick the right kind of friends, though, for it is common knowledge that the Chinese group at Columbia includes all kinds and that some, at least, have been anything but a credit to their country or to the university. I am counting on you and Charlie to stand by the best standards and to hold rigidly to the high ideals which are sadly needed for those who are to return to their native lend to help in the making of the new and more stable China. It is nothing short of a crime the way some of the so-called Chinese students in this country have not only thrown away their opportunities, but have discredited their own nation. The Sun brothers certainly don't belong in that class, and I am sure will never line up with it. So here’s wishing you a great summer and a record of which we shall all be proud!

Charlie came out to see me day before yesterday, and I met him again by appointment in Boston yesterday noon. On both occasions we discussed very fully the proposal made in your letters to him and to me and plans for his further study. Charlie has been fine about the whole thing, although he is naturally disappointed at having to give up the expected early return to his home. We have talked the situation over very freely together, and I have tried to point out to him just why your objections to the early return seem sound and the undoubted advantages that would accrue to him by further and more specialized study in America. I tried to emphasize the fact that China needed today very keenly men of his ability and character with broad and specialized training in lines that would naturally make them leaders. We have talked over the courses offered by Harvard and Columbia, which seemed to be the best along the general lines you have suggested, and while both of us would prefer Harvard because of the general surroundings and living conditions, it seems to be true that Columbia offers more and better courses in the subjects desired. Anyway, I have asked Charlie to go to New York to consult in person with the Dean of the Graduate School at Columbia in order that we may be sure of our ground. He has already consulted the Harvard authorities. The final decision will probably be made within the next week or two. In any event, Charlie plans to take some type-writing and secretarial courses during the current summer vacation. Again thanking you for your letter, and trusting that the final arrangements may work out to the satisfaction of all concerned, and wishing also and most earnestly for your own early and complete recovery to normal health and vigor, believe me.

I am glad that you are planning to see Charlie before he goes home, though I am wondering just now whether he is to go home soon or not. I had supposed that this was to be the plan, but only this last Saturday, while I was at Amherst attending my class reunion, I received a cable message from your father asking me to tell Charlie to plan to take a secretarial course this summer.
