Ring out, my soul, ring out today, Sing out the joy of life, Ring out, ring out to greet the day, To soothe my inner strife. In the sky fluttering tips of the nights, White grown, are vanishing away. And the East brings dim and rosy lights. The dawn of another day. Oh why should my soul and I, Live apart from the God of all? For money can not forgiveness buy, When the Savior issues His call. Let me join Him hand in hand, My soul with joy enthrall, Let me be among that band, Who gives this world their all. Ring out, my soul, ring out today Ring out the joy of life, Ring out, ring out to greet the day, To soothe my inner strife. —Roy Burcham.

March, Nineteen Twenty-Nine 11 He was so busy watching John pick oranges that he did not hear one of the large trucks approaching. The driver was in a hurry for today the grove was to be finished. The driver was driving very fast and he did not see the man in front of him until he was almost upon him. John saw the huge truck approaching and saw the man below standing directly in his path. Instantly recognition leapt to his eyes. For the one below him was none other than James Scott. Something seemed to snap in his body and the next instant he was leaping from the top of the tree toward the ground. Lifting Scott bodily from the ground, he pushed him to one side just as the heavy truck sped by catching John’s foot with one of the hind wheels. With a cry of pain he fell to the ground holding his foot. Scott, realizing how close he had come to his death, rushed to John’s side. He did not recognize the face at first but upon looking closer, he recognized his old friend and chum. He lifted him up and carried him to a nearby house from which a doctor was summoned. When he arrived he found that the foot was badly crushed and would take some time for it to get well. John was taken to the hospital the next day. For two months he was in the hospital. Then he was discharged a well man again. He was worried about the hospital bill and went to tell the doctor that he would pay as much as he could. But he was told that his bill had been paid the day before. Upon turning to leave he ran into Scott who started towards him and began to talk to him. John soon learned that Scott owned the grove where he had been working. “It is my turn now to pay you back,” said Scott. “Oh, that was nothing more than anyone else would have done,” said John blushing slightly. “Well, I am going to help you anyway. When the train leaves tomorrow I am going to have company, and you no doubt know who that person is.” Two years later John Reynolds was seen sitting at a large glass-topped desk. He did not look as he did when he was riding the freight two years before. In a large and beautiful building on one of the large streets of New York you may see a sign “Scott Reynolds, Brokers,” and both are considered wealthy. Two months ago James Scott died and when he went he had the satisfaction of seeing his old friend and chum by his bedside to the last. Upon a large monument in the Hillside cemetery the following inscription is found: “Here lies the body of a man who found one of the most prominent men on record today.” John and his family go to California almost every winter but you may be sure that they do not have to bum their way on a freight train. —Karl Howell. Miss Dewey: “Can you prove that the square of the hypotenuse is equal to the sum of the squares of the two sides of this trianguler?” John Wright: “I don’t have to prove it; I admit it.”
