June once more arrived the voyagers were forced to bid farewell, not only to the crew of 'the Vingt-et-un, but to many of the most respected members of the faculty, Miss Skoog, Mr. Haggard, Mr. Kuttler. and Mr. Martin. REEL FOUR. September 19, 1921, the company assembled for the last cruise to the harbor of Elementary Knowledge. For captain on this last voyage they chose Chalmers Curtis, with Charles Bailey as assistant pilot, and Don Wade as purser. - This year ill winds came their way, for they decided to publish the Annual without the assistance of the advertisements of Petoskey's mer- chants, and without the financial aid of the Board of Education, all of which meant the raising of nearly S900.00. They bent themselves to the task and chose Esther Halstead and Rowan Fasquelle to edit the publication, with Don Wade and Carl Junker to manage the business affairs of the Observer. In March a picked group from the Pair-of-Deuces, coached by Miss Tousley and Miss Peet, put on the annual Senior play. This year it was significant that only one Junior was required to make the cast com- plete. In May the Pair-of-Deuces put on The Observer Follies con- sisting of a program varying from a one act play to a Jazz band. In this way the crew completed its campaign for funds. The last year of the cruise found the '22 men prominent on all the teams. Four were members .of the ill-fated foot-ball team, three were placed on the basket-ball team, two on the track team, and three were members of the debating team. The farewell reception dance tendered the Pair-of-Deuces by '23 was a delightful climax to the four years cruise.. June 16 marked the close of their joy days with P. H. S. when a regretful farewell was given the Pair-of-Deuces and each member of the crew set out to sail his own small craft. ' R. F. '22.

ernment ownership of railroads. '22 lost this debate by a two-to-one de- cision, but actual experience has shown that the losers were in the right, even tho two judges failed to agree. Later in the year a very delightful party was given in the hold of the ship. Here the class showed it's progressiveness and patriotism by decorating with the national colors. So the ship cruised on 'till in June it found it's harbor in Little Traverse Bay. REEL TWO. When, in September, 1919, the roll was called many were missing and several new faces were found in the company. A new skipper took command, Captain Maston Spencer. The crew now made the acquain- tance of Mr. Kuttler and the formidable principles of geometry. Many were lured by Tennyson's Princess, while others were simply attracted by the English teacher, Miss Babcock. As the Christmas vacation neared, preparations were made for the annual Fresh-Soph debate. This year Esther Halstead, Carl J unker and Donovan Henry were selected and fulfilled their trust by bringing home a unanimous victory for '22, As time went on and the class of '22 developed, it contributed its help to make successful the foot-ball, basket-ball, track, base-ball and debating teams chosen from the whole fleet of exploring ships. One of the company even helped the Senior ship put on its annual Senior play. With the coming of the warm June days the whole fleet succumbed to the spring-fever and landed for a three months' rest. , REEL THREE. On the 13th of September, 1920, the familiar gong assembled the emigrants back to their ship. After choosing Ralph McCarthy as their pilot, and electing Mr. Kuttler as faculty advisor, they embarked on their third voyage. This year they realized thalt there was absolutely no comparison between the faithful bark Pair-of-Deuces and any of its rivals from '19 to '25. They found themselves in stormy waters with need for a staunch bark to sail in. Aside from the trials of American Literature and History, of Latin, French, and Mathematics, they found that their fifteen cent treasury must be increased to over one hundred dollars, for the task fell to them to celebrate the end of the journey of the frigate Vingt-et-un with a reception. In February the class demonstrated its remarkable energy and team work when it put on the moving picture story of the famous Last of the Mohicansf' The Kalamazoo Glee Club came in March and helped to enrich the treasury. By these two events 'the fifteen cents became 3135.00 and gave to the crew of the Vingt-et-un a more ela- borate reception at Forest Beach Inn than had ever before been given. This year the Pair-of-Deuces was very well represented on all of the Heet teams. It had two men in foot-ball, two in basket-ball, three in track, and two in debating. Even the crew of the Vingt-et-un was forced to admit its superiority, for six of the company were given parts in the Senior play. Altho '21 did prove proficient when it was a ques- tion of breaking a door to secure the ice-cream, '22 once more demon- strated its supremacy when, with the assistance of the sloop Twenty- three, it outdid the combined efforts of '21 and '24 in a track meet.
