HE cottage colony is already well established, the charm of this life bringing back many old friends as well as some new faces, all of whom .are cordially welcomed, for these homes .give the Village a dignity and character which is enjoyed by all. The interest awakened by the recent announcement of the Management that lots would be sold, subject to certain re strictions in keeping with the character of the Village, continues, and bids fair to add another and very pleasant feature to this life. NEWS AND GOSSIP. The important addition of the summer is a pri vate home for Mr. George F. Blake of Worcester, Mass., who has bought the Rose cottage, and is making extensive additions and alterations which will make it one of the most attractive ottages in the Village. Mr. Blake and his family have spent two seasons here and have formed many pleasant acquaintances. Mr. Warren II. Manning of Boston, who has spent many seasons here, has purchased land and is planning to build an attractive winter home upon it. Mr. and Mrs. S. E. Stowe of Grafton, Mass., return to the Marlborough for their sixth season. Mrs. M. E. Baxter of Boston, Is at the Beacon for her sixth winter. Mr. and Mrs. S. A. D.

Tin: pijveiiuust schools. Seaaon Open With Old Corps 'of In Htructom in Attendance.) The Pinehurst Schools open with the same corps of instructors who made it so successful last season. Aldice G. Warren, who has had an unusually good season at his summer school at Point Lookout, Sodus Bay, New York, returns as Head Master, Philip L. Light bourn will be in charge of the Prepara tory Department, and Miss Anne L. Hay will be at the head of the Intermediate Department. It is hoped that Miss Elizabeth Macfarlane, who during the past three years has made so many friends by her work in the Primary De partment, may also return, but on account of the death of her father, she may find it impossible to do so. Many changes will be noticed in the school building. The school-rooms and halls have been finished, a fine system of steam heating has been introduced, and the plumbing and drainage of the build ing has been carefully attended to. Ar rangements have also been made for a boarding department for boys, and it is confidently expected that this feature will supply a demand which has made itself felt ever since the establishment of the school.
