Stearns to Charles Sun, Amherst, Mass., November 16, 1927 Subject The topic of the resource Letter from Alfred E. Stearns to Charles Sun, Amherst, Mass., November 16, 1927 Relation A related resource Dear Charlie: I have just received your letter of November 13 and am not surprised that you should have wondered at my absence from the Inauguration exercises at Amherst a short time ago. I had fully expected to be there and had counted on the opportunity that the trip would furnish me to have a nice little visit with you Unfortunately the appearance in our midst of infantile paralysis made it necessary for me to cancel all outside engagements at this time, including a meeting of the College Entrance Examination Board in New York and the Amherst Inauguration, and to stay right here on the job. You can be sure that only something of real importance would have kept me from taking part in the Amherst festivities, especially when I had just been initiated into membership on the Board of Trustees. What you write me of the flood and of the contests with Williams are most interesting. It would take a good deal of water to bring the old Connecticut up on top of Amherst Hill. Naturally I was interested to hear what happened up at Connecticut Lake where the river starts, and a letter received from Ike Brown only a few days ago tells met that the road into my camp and the one leading down from the barn to the little cabins where you boys were lodged, especially the latter, have been badly washed out. Fortunately the lake had been drawn down during the late summer and early fall, so that when the freshet came the dam didn't go out as it doubtless would have done if the Lake had been full of water at the time. I hope you will be able to pull your work up if it has suffered of late, so that you can continue the splendid record which you have made up there to date. Incidentally, and if you get the chance, look up some of the Andover boys who have entered Amherst this fall, for there are some extra good fellows in the lot, and I am sure that you will find them congenial.

Stearns to Arthur Sun, Cambridge, Mass., October 9, 1926 Relation A related resource Dear Arthur: Hearty congratulations! I certainly rejoice that the goal has at last been attained and that the degree from Technology has now to be yours. The one regret, however, that I have now is that you should have been prompted by your enthusiasm to indulge in any foolish expenditures of money, if this is what you have done. Isn’t there yet time to cancel or adjust the order. I have just had a letter from Mr. William Spencer Murray of New York, one of the leading engineers in the country to whom I wrote in your behalf. He tells me that he often comes to Boston and would be very glad to meet you there for an interview in the near future. At his request I am sending him your address, and you will doubtless hear from him before his next visit. He stands about as high in the profession, I imagine, as does Mr. Freeman, so that you would be perfectly safe in following his advice and accepting his suggestions. I have not yet heard from Mr. Freeman, though I have written him, as promised. Very sincerely yours, Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource Alfred E.

I am enclosing check for $300.00 to enable you to replenish your bank account. If I were you, I should go frankly to your Dean and tell her in confidence that you do not believe you are benefited by rooming with your present chum. Put it, perhaps, on the ground that those of different nationalities find it difficult to be congenial and to make proper adjustments. I do not think you need to say anything that would involve your roommate unpleasantly, but I do think you ought to make the change if you feel that her ideals are wholly different from yours and her influence not helpful. I am perfectly sure that your father would not wish you for a minute to stay with a roommate who did not meet his ideals of what a girl ought to be. No, I have not heard further from your father in connection with the Nurses School proposition. The moment I do, however, you will hear from me in turn, and promptly. Nor have I heard from Arthur recently, though he promised to write me frequently after his return. I have not heard that Henry Yuan has been expelled from Hamilton. I hope it isn't true. Within a few weeks I am due at Hamilton College for a preaching engagement, and I can then find out the truth. What are the plans for the Christmas holidays? I do not quite understand from your letter. Do you mean that you are going to stay in Elmira, and, if so, just where? With every best wish, believe me, Always sincerely yours. ABS/G Enc.

First, please permit me to relate for you again the subjects that I am now taking; they are: English (a study of Elysabethan [sic] drama, especially that of Shakespeare), biology, mathematics, Greek, and philosophy. Of all these courses I like Professor Eliot’s English course the best. Prof. Eliot, as you know, was one of the best men in Bowdoin College; he is a good personality and a fine teacher; I simply enjoy his course. Biology is very interesting and I like it also. As to Greek I quite dislike it; although I think I shall get along all right. Philosophy is hard for me to understand; otherwise I would like it as much as I do biology. Such, in short, is what I have to say about my studies in college. I am choosing soccer as the sport, and I am glad to say for present I am a member of the team. East Saterday [sic] we play Conn. State Normal, winning from them by a big score 10-0. It wasn’t a great victory; because our opponents did not know the technique of the game and in truth were much inferior to our team. But their men were hard fighters and good sportsmen, which is something to be respected. Yours always, Charles Sun Dr. Alfred E.

I am one of them. However, since I am not going home or anywhere else, I am thinking of studies at present more than the coming vacation. This week I shall have three examinations and next week two; then I shall be through for this year During Christmas recess I shall most probably stay here in Amherst, for in Amherst I can get more rest and enjoyment than anywhere else. In regard to the fact that the fall term is fast ending, I wish to bring up another question, and that is I would like to have my next year’s allowance for the winter. I shall be very busy next week, and I suppose that you will be also; therefore I am taking this opportunity to ask you for it. I shall feel more at ease during the vacation if I know there is enough money in the bank. Please permit me to thank you for it now; because I won’t be able to write you again till Christmas.
