I am glad that you feel that Helen is doing well, and I am glad, too, to know that she seems to have won the friendly good will of her instructors and mates. I am taking the liberty of sending both your letter and the report to Helen's father in China. Very sincerely yours, Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource Alfred E.

Stearns, May 30, 1929 Relation A related resource My dear Dr. Stearns: Helen Tsai tells me that she is expecting to spend the summer with Mrs. Nye in Weymouth. I wondered what you would think about making a plan for her to remain at Saint Mary’s after our Commencement, June 11th, and do some additional work in English. We will have several girls remaining for the College Board examinations and also others for additional work, so that Helen would not lack companionship. At that time we could plan several trips in and around New York which would be of interest and advantage. If you approve of the plan I shall be glad to submit to you some points of interest that have come to my mind and possibly you might add others. I have not spoken to Helen of the plan. We have all become very much attached to Helen because of her sweet, happy nature and her efforts for her own improvement. I am enclosing a bill which covers the cost for Helen’s uniforms for the year. The school has already paid this bill at McCreery’s. Very sincerely, Sister Superior, C.S.M.

My delay in answering it has been due to my recent absence from town. The bill covering the cost of Helen's uniforms for the year and to which you refer was not included as reported. I shall be glad to pay it promptly once I know the amount. Personally, I like the idea of having Helen remain with you a short time after your Commencement, provided, of course, she herself approves of the plan. Of course, if she has made definite arrangement with Mrs. Nye for an earlier visit there, the proposed arrangement might not prove practicable. My own reaction to the suggestion is wholly favorable.

Stearns Publisher An entity responsible for making the resource available All Rights Reserved By Phillips Academy Date A point or period of time associated with an event in the lifecycle of the resource June 20, 1928 Rights Information about rights held in and over the resource All Rights Reserved By Phillips Academy Language A language of the resource English Type The nature or genre of the resource Correspondence Relation A related resource My dear Sister Antony: I have in my charge a young Chinese girl of sixteen years of age who for the past two years has been in a small home school nearby, The Whittier School at Merrimac, Mass., and for whom I am now seeking a larger school and broader contacts. Many friends of mine who have had intimate relations with St. Mary’s have unanimously urged me to place the girl with you. My only hesitancy has been the distance involved and the possible difficulty of transfers through New York, etc., on vacation trips. I am assured, however, that these are all taken care of most efficiently by the school authorities and that I need therefore give no further thought to that particular factor. I have just been talking with the mother of one of our boys, Mrs. Arthur Griffin of New York City, and her unadulterated enthusiasm has prompted me to write you at once in order to discover whether you would have an opening for the young lady in question for the coming school year and with the understanding that, if you have, I shall be ready and glad to make a formal application for her admission. Miss Helen Tsai is the girl in question. Her father was educated in this country as a boy and is a man of wealth and scholarly tastes. He craves the very best for his daughter and son whom he has placed under my guardianship during their stay in America. Unlike most of our modern Chinese who send their children to American, he does not desire to have his daughter go to college but rather wishes her to round out her education in a finishing school of high intellectual, moral, and cultural standards. Miss Helen Tsai is a very unusual girl and distinctly unlike most of the Chinese whom it has been my privilege to know in recent years. She is ambitious, unselfish, abounding in in life, vigor, and humor, and exceptionally adaptable. Wherever she goes, she invariably makes friends and seems equally popular with old and young alike. I can commend her in every way, and largely because of her rather unusual qualities and promise I crave for her more than ever the best school and the best influences that can be found. I realize that it is somewhat late to make application for admission to a school as popular as yours, but I am still hoping that you may be able to find a way to admit this unusual and promising candidate from the other side of the world. Miss Tsai’s father has placed in my hands ample funds to provide for the education of his children and has made me their guardian during their stay in this country. You may hold me responsible, therefore, for the financial obligations involved. If it is not too much trouble, may I ask you to wire me collect whether I can hope for a chance to place Miss Tsai with you next fall. Very sincerely yours, Dr. Alfred E.

We are unable at the present moment to supply the physician's certificate, but will do so before Miss Tsai enrolls with you. She has been in this country two years and has been in perfect health during that period. In case you should wish to communicate with Dr. Stearns personally his address for the summer will be Home Camp, First Connecticut Lake, Pittsburgh, New Hampshire. If his secretaries can be of service, please let us know. I shall be away during July, but a letter addressed to Miss E. Rosamond Greenwood, Phillips Academy, Andover, will receive Miss Greenwoods careful attention. Will you please send us another copy of "Regulations for Dress" in order that we may send one to McCreery's and have one for reference here. We do not find among your enclosures a calendar for next year, so would ask for one of these also. Very truly yours, Secretary to Dr. Stearns We are sending the school record blank to the Whittier School in Merrimac, where Miss Tsai has been a pupil for the last two years.
