Freeman, Providence, Rhode Island, to Frank Winsor, Metropolitan Water Supply, Boston, October 14, 1926 (regarding Arthur Sun) Relation A related resource Dear Mr. Winsor: I wish to call to your friendly attention Mr. Arthur Sun, a citizen of Tientsin, China, whom I have met while a student at the Mass. Institute of Technology, from which he expects to graduate at about the present time. I understand he has applied for a position with the new Metropolitan Water Supply, and has been specializing in sanitary Engineering at the Institute. I am much interested personally in having young Mr. Sun find just the right kind of a position that will put the finishing touches on his Technology training, and help him to a field of future usefulness in China. His father is one of the most eminent citizens of the great city of Tientsin, and is very friendly to Americans. As you know, I have had several Chinese students for engineering assistants, and have found them each and all exceedingly faithful and attentive to their duties, and I have the utmost confidence that you would find Mr. Arthur Sun a valuable assistant who would show the keenest interest in performing to your satisfaction whatever duties you might assign him.

Stearns to Mary Sun, Elmira College, January 8, 1927 Relation A related resource Dear Mary: I have your letter of January 6 and am disturbed that you should feel so discouraged about your work. I really think that you exaggerate your own limitations and that you are probably doing better than you are willing to give yourself credit for. Further, I am sure that your cold, which naturally makes you feel miserable, is reflected in the feelings you have expressed in your letter. Don’t get discouraged and don’t overwork. Remember that a good physical condition invariably means that you can do more and better work in a far shorter time than you can when you are not at your best physically. That is the chief reason that both Miss Clemons and I were so insistent that you should take more exercise than you are disposed to take of your own initiative. I honestly believe that this tendency on your part to avoid wholesome exercise leaves you in a sluggish state naturally which in itself would account for much of your trouble. I am not going to preach, however, but only suggest what I am sure is for your best. Take good care of that cold, get some wholesome vigorous exercise every day, and don’t worry further about the results. You are not going to disgrace yourself or your father either. A happy and successful new year to you! Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource Alfred E.

Sun, Tientsin, October 15, 1926 Subject The topic of the resource Letter from Alfred E. Stearns to C.Y. Sun, Tientsin, October 15, 1926 Relation A related resource My dear Mr. Sun: I am enclosing a report which I have just received from the Sea Pines School which Mary attended during the past summer months and which I am sure will please you. Mary evidently did her best to make the most of the opportunities offered her at the school, and the report indicates how well she seemingly succeeded. The last word I had from her from Elmira was to the effect that she was busily engaged in her new work and happy in the new life and contacts. I hope to see her early in December, as I accepted an invitation to preach at the college at that time, and chiefly that I might have this chance to see for myself how things were going. Arthur writes me that he has finally succeeded in passing off the last of the requirements that have stood between him and his degree at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. This is good news indeed, and we are now trying to find a place where he can get some practical engineering experience for the coming months. I have written to both Mr. John R. Freeman and Mr. Spencer Murray, who are the most eminent engineers in this country, and have received the friendliest kind of letters in reply. Both of these gentlemen have promised to use their influence to help find Arthur the right kind of a position and have already written letters in his behalf. Mr. Freeman you know personally, I believe. Mr. Murray has two boys in school with us at the present time; so that the approaches in both cases were simple and direct. I venture to quote the closing paragraph in Mr. Freeman's letter received only this morning: "I had not previously known that you were looking after the education of Mr. C.Y. Sun's four children. I am glad to find them in such capable hands. The father impressed me as one of the finest characters that I met during my stay in China." This morning's mail also brings me a letter from Charlie, in which he tells me of his work and life at Amherst. All the reports I can get from my friends at Amherst, and I naturally have many there, for that was my own college and the town my home town for most of my life, are enthusiastically commendatory of Charlie and his work and spirit. I have had nothing very recently from Tom, though the last reports were good, and I have reason to hope that he is making an earnest start in his college life.

Stearns to Arthur Sun, Boston, January 8, 1927 Subject The topic of the resource Letter from Alfred E. Stearns to Arthur Sun, Boston, January 8, 1927 Relation A related resource Dear Arthur: Thank you for your letter received this morning. You will note that I am using the new address which you have just sent me. I am interested in your hint that Tom seems to you to have changed a lot lately. Please tell me frankly in what way he has changed and whether you think it is for the better or for the worse. I never feel altogether easy about Tom, as you know, and if he needs checking up, I am sure that my good friend Pres. Moody of Middlebury will find a way to do it. No, I have not heard from your father for many months, and I can't help feeling a bit anxious, owing to the newspaper reports of the critical conditions that are developing in China. Evidently Peking and Shanghai have not suffered seriously as yet, but it looks to me now as if this developing antagonism towards foreigners in general would not go down until a real crisis has occurred. Of course these angry mobs are ill advised, and yet I am not sure that we can blame them altogether, for I can never get over the shock I received myself when I was in China, as I noted the arrogance and injustice so characteristic of the attitude of many of the foreigners whom I met. If only China could settle down, unite on a common policy and a strong leader, all of the thorns which have been pricking her flesh for years, including foreign concessions, tariff, extraterritoriality, and the rest, would speedily and permanently be done away with just as was the case in Japan when Japan went at the thing in the right way. You fellows, when you return to China will have a wonderful chance to help straighten out a bad tangle and put your country in a position that ought properly to be hers. I don’t think your idea of a night school course or two is crazy at all; indeed it seems to me pretty sound, especially as the bulk of your present work, as I understand it, is to be out of doors and more or less physical. That means that you ought to be able to take on a little real study even in the evening without harm and with some evident advantages. Don’t overdo it, though. With best wishes for the new year, believe me Always sincerely yours. Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource Alfred E.

Arthur has at last succeeded in passing off the deficiencies standing between him and his Technology degree. I understand that the formal presentation of that degree will take place in December. In the meantime, we are searching for a job, and, as I have been able to interest Mr. John R. Freeman and Mr. Spencer Murray, two of the most eminent engineers in the country. I ran hopeful that our efforts will erelong be crowned with success. Arthur has been out recently to talk things over with me, and we are working together on the proposition. I have written Mr. Sun very fully and in detail about the complications and difficulties of our problem in connection with Mary's start at Elmira. From my letter Mr. Sun will certainly be able to see how earnestly you sought to carry out his wishes, and I am sure that he can never blame you if anything that savored of a failure can be recorded.
