The children were all out in the fields or the garden; he could see their schoolrooms and dormitories and refectory. They were all rather bare, exquisitely clean and airy, full of the most recent improvements as regarded educational appliances. "This is the Orphanage building," Sister Agnes explained.
The nearer they came to the Tower, the more intense and colorful became the activity as the crisscrossing slidewalks carried enlisted guardsmen in their red uniforms, and the officers of the Solar Guard in magnificent black and gold, across the quadrangle to the various dormitories, laboratories, lecture rooms, mess halls, and research rooms.
The various offices of the institution, including a church, the halls whose ceilings have been already mentioned, and hospital dormitories all now turned into an orphanage are built round two courtyards, one only of which calls for special notice, for nearly everything else has been rebuilt or altered.
