Transcription:
"This is the style of photo our Japanese take. It is historicale(?) interesting. It is good of you to send the fashions although too elaborate for us still we are not Arcadians & the Chinese Tailors copy well. But they are expensive. The ppc arrived yesterday. The schools are for the children of missions, not Chinese. David."
