"The lake!" responded Helen.
The dancing blue waters of Lake Remona were visible for a minute between two of the houses. Ruth, too, caught a glimpse of the small island which raised its hilly head in the middle of the lake.
"Is that Bliss Island?" she inquired of Miss Dexter.
"Yes. You can see it from here. That doesn't belong to the college."
"No?" said Ruth, in surprise: "But, of course, the girls can go there?"
"It is 'No Man's Land,' I believe. Belongs to none of the estates surrounding the lake. We go there—yes," Miss Dexter told her. "The Stone Face is there."
"What is that, please?" asked Ruth, interested. "What is the Stone Face?"
"A landmark, Miss Fielding. That Stone Face was quite an important spot last May—wasn't it, Purvis?" the senior asked the other girl.
"Oh, goodness me, yes!" said Miss Purvis. "Don't mention it. Think what it has done to our Kappa Alpha."
"What do you suppose ever became of that girl?" murmured Miss Dexter, thoughtfully.
