Stearns to Byron Clark, State Committee of Young Men's Christian Associations (YMCAs) of Vermont, Burlington, April 5, 1928 Subject The topic of the resource Letter from Alfred E. Stearns to Byron Clark, State Committee of Young Men's Christian Associations (YMCAs) of Vermont, Burlington, April 5, 1928 Relation A related resource My dear Mr. Clark: I have your letter of April 3 and the accompanying blank inquiring about Charles K.H. Sun, a Chinese ward of mine now at Amherst College. I have filled out the blank and am returning it herewith, but I can’t refrain from adding a personal word in Sun’s behalf. Charles Sun is a rare boy, a fine scholar, a perfect little gentleman. and as clean and wholesome as they are made. He comes from one of the best families in China, his father having served during the war as Head of the Chinese Red Cross and as heads of various other philanthropic organizations both before and since the war. Charlie lived in my house for several years while he was in school here, and I know him in consequence pretty intimately and this leads me to recommend him to you almost without reservation. I am sure you would find him a wonderfully helpful member of your force, and I am sure, too, that it would be a splendid thing for your boys to get this intimate and friendly contact with such a clean-cut and wholesome representative of his race. It helps mightily to break down prejudices and that’s worth a good deal in itself. Further, he is qualified to enter actively and enthusiastically into the general activities, athletic and others, of camp life. He is a good swimmer, an excellent soccer player, and a good fellow on the trail. Don’t let him get away from you; at least that would be my advice.

Ever since the war I have been having a good number of foreign fellows with us at Camp Abnaki, and almost invariably the Chinese fellows have been some of the most popular ones we have had. Somehow they seem to please us especially well, and I guess altogether we have had more Chinese fellows than any other nationality, so I shall look forward to enjoying Sun this summer.
