regarding their courses in Mechanical Engineering and on receipt of that information I will immediately forward it to you.
I shall have sent to you shortly a Gem S. Parker fountainpen.
You speak of your nehhew doing some work while taking his course in engineering. It is, to be sure, quite common for American students to work while studying but we all advise strongly against it, if the student can get along without work. ing. Mechanical engneering is quite a difficult subject, so I think it would be best if your nephew were to work only in summer time and do nothing except his studying during tbe regular school year, I will also write for information from Lehigh University.
I would recommend the school in the following order : (1) Boston Institute of Technology. (2) Cornell University (3) Lehigh University. With best wishes to you and the order, I am,
most respectfully yorus,
JAMES R. WARE (7) 173 Boulevard Saint Germain, Paris, France,
November 22, 1929. Your Eminence,
I shall not wait for the arrival of the copies of Dr. Krause's lectures to answer your letter of October 3.
The fountain pen which you wrote me about over a year ago, was duly sent, but has apparently never reached you. It is impossible, however, to put in any claim, or to trace it, as it is not possible to register aby mail between the United States and India.
