he relapsed into silence his chin cup ped in hie hands it was nine oclock of an evening in late spring and the scent of warm earth and growing plants was in the air xa another few weeks college would close for the long vaca tion and there was every reason for matthew to he at peace with the world in the light of the dormitory entrance however could see his troubled eyes whats bothering you matt asked nothing he answered shortly respected hla evident desire for silence and leaned back against one of the etone pillars of tifae porch two students came up the gravel path said goodnight and passed into the build ing replied only mechanically for was thin ring of matthew baldwin whose clouded eyes were gazing straight ahead matthew had come to college from one of the dty high schools he was dls tlngtnahed the members of the freshman class by an ease of manner and grace of bearing which were tin usual in an eighteenyearold boy it became rumored thai his family was of colonial stock he had quiet dignity which the respect even of upper dawnnen xt was reported tnatl he had travelled widely and knew europe like book matthew made no attempt either to deny or to affirm the rumors in hi freshman year in spite of the fact that some of hla classmates were inclined to resent what they termed has highhat tedness he was elected vicepresident of his class and freshman representa tive on the student council his name was included in the honor roll at the end of the term and he was popular with both students and professors why eventually he should have de cided to confide in me is question aa everybody knows who lias attended italrltan for tlie post thlry year am the night watchman the boys call mo oeneral cobb although have 10 mili tary or naval ranking back in tho dlabant past ulncss forced me to dis continue toy own college career and took my present position since that time many colkg drama has unfolded bofore my eyes none was more interesting than the ntnry which

difference what your father was said so long as you yourself have measured up to certain utandnrde lhesmlled ratber oenerall but tm nob sure tnat ivo measured up to the standards required surely theres no doubt of that aald there la ho maintained and avoid ed my eyes am the aon of gam bler and sometimes the temptation to play cards is so strong that can hardly resist it ive managed to hold off eo far but theres no telling when might weaken he looked over et me hard light in his eyes tm not going to join anything until know in my own heart that have conquered this temptation in spite of my arguments he was firm and agreed finally that he was acting courageously so matthew did not accept election to cap and bella and word spread around the campus that he oormidered himself boo good even for an honor society in junior year however his popular ity increased he was elected varsity footjball manager and vicepresident of the selfoovernrnent board hie fellow students instinctively tmssted him and he became bit more sociable now as he sat with cupped hands on the porch of the dormitory could sense thai sofbettamr wu bothexing you asked again he looked up gravely have been elected member of the honor club aald thats nothing to be grouchy about know he spoke so softly that could scarcely hear membership in the honor club is the goal of all elud enta it has always been my big ambi tion and now and now what asked he opened ids hands in gesture of helplessness and now he said im facing the same problem that factid loot year only in different way dont get you mau lost spring wlien refused election to cap and bells it was because wasnt sure of myself but during the past monthe ive conquered the urge to gamble and and iv feel im worthy of membership general youll accept then llo leaned forward on uie steps hw elbows on his knees its question of money now some investments which the trust company mode for mo have decreased in value had eicpected to have enough to uee me through college but next fall there will be very little except wliat can make this summer do you feel that you may not be able to return to collego he nodded it wouldnt be right fur me to join the honor club knowing tlut might not come back and the chances aro that iuant liaviouah money it occurred to me that it would be an easy matter to arrange scholarship and loan for matthew and was jurt about ta tell him so when he spoke agnln want to come back oeneral and wear the white hat of the honor club want to wear uie pin which is an inbignia of honor it can be fixed up somehow mat

of chapel and toko their places in two long lines in front of iclng active members of the club dressed in cap and gown would tap on the shoulder those juniors who were deemed worthy of membership would matthew baldwin be among them asked myself the question and could find no answer feeling of restlessness possessed me and walked across the campus to the porch of wllleus hall seated on the top step became lost in reflection two days before had visited the dean of men and arranged for scholarship and loan for matthew wanted him to have his chance provided he wae worthy of the door of the
