THE GEMINI.
There were 1.070 students at the col
lege. all young men ranging principal
ly between the ages OF is and "a:
and among them we're represented
many OF the foremost families OF so
cial and industrial America. Tuition
at the college was small. and for that
reason the school was classed at the
head Of the country's Representative"
seats OF higher learning There had
been instances where young men
energetic, ambitious and capable OF
bearing against the rub that goes the
wrong way-had worked their way
through the school, but they were
hOpelessly few. The college had posed
as a democratic institution, but Il was
in reality exclusive almost TO a degree
OF snobbishness, and only the sons
OF the liberal rich could attend with
comfort and independence. The per.
fumed atmosphere" was sitting to
the less blest.
For more than $50 years the college
had nestled among the hills that
sloped away In gentle. picturesque
beauty to the sea. The main hall

the affairs were conducted. com.
manded In old colonial simplicity from
one Of the loftier knobs. and from II.
like the spokes Of great wheel, hedge.
lined avenues showed the way TO the
other buildings. most OF which bore
the stamp OF latter-day making. Back
OF the college. less than a mile dis
tant, was the settlement, which skirted
the town. Here lived the students
and here stood their retreats and
lodges.
The college owned it's origin to the
munificence Of an old Virginia planter,
who graciously bestowed his gift upon
his majesty's most loyal subjects In
the colonies. At the founding exer-
cises, the aged benefactor reyerently
bowed his head. when the banner OF
his king was hoisted to the stan that
topped the squatty, smallwindowed
structure. This flag nuttered in the
breezes that came in from the sea
until the new spirit displaced Il with
another. The years crept on towards
the newer era; the institution gradu
ally outgrew the precariousness OF its
infancy and came into the shaping
splendor OF its early youth--then into
the young glory that was surely
American.

ternoon and on their return at a late
hour found the house in possession Of
their neighbors, who had gone there
with the traditional well filled bask-
cts" during their absence and had pre-
pared a dinner that was As generous
in its proportions as 1t was appetiz-

rie had no intimation of the affair.
and, as may be inferred, were both as
tonished and pleased with their dis
covery. The dinner, which would have
done credit to the chef OF the Brown
Palace, or the Waldorf-Astoria, was
greatly enjoyed by all, no less by Mr..
and Mrs. Guthrie than by those who
had prepared 1t. After dinner the
guests were entertained with social
games of various kinds, thus round
ing out an occasion Of exceptional en-
joyment. Mr.. and Mrs. Guthrie has
no hesitancy in asserting that the
best people on earth live on Orchard
