nook in the most elevated portion of the island. Dwelling here in high places, they found their ambition soaring. They even dared, in spite of the appallingly high cost of parchment and th e warnings of the wiseacres, to try the compiling of a log of all their voyages. The little cell in which they lived became by turns a photograph gallery, edi- torial office, and advertisement bureau. For the first time, the crew of the Goodship 1920 saw that there was a reason for all the explorations they had made on the Isles of Knowledge. Every discovery proved of use in the new endeavor. Lucky they had learned the lyrics, for now they must sing them for Fun and Rhyme. Good they knew how to construct geometrical figures, for now they could square expenses with assets, and look confidently at every angle of the task. There were days when enthu- siasm ran high and all went smoothly in their workshop. There were days when gloom well-nigh overwhelmed them — when their art of expression seemed to be a.w.o.l., and their financial difficulties assumed stupendous proportions. But they carried on — you may judge for yourself how successfully. (See Maynard Keech, Business Manager of The Tar-bo-rah, for subscription price.) They did cease their labors occasionally, however, for a little recreation. Once they went to Coolmore, the cave of the witches and ghosts, and had the spookiest time of their lives. Then the great carnival was repeated and they are still following the manner of the famous Hawaiian dancer who made such a hit among them. But the happiest of all was when the beautiful Ship of 1921 came and brought them such deli- cious things to eat, and gave them most enchanting performance for their enjoyment. At present they are gathering up all their belongings and preparing to say their last farewell to the beloved islands, to set out for home. Already they have made some wonderful plans for taking several long and important voyages in the future. Thus endeth the fourth and last voyage. Hazel Hoard. Page Twenty
