M. J. WOOD & CO., Reynolds, Ga.
The New Church Organ
They’ve got a brand new organ, Sue
For all their fuss and search;
They’ve done just as they said they’d
do
And fetched it into church.
They’re .bound the critter shall be
seen;
And on the preacher’s right,
They’ve hoisted up their new machine
In everybody’s sight,
They’ve got a chorister and choir
Agin’ miy voice and vote;
For it w as never my desire
To praise the Lord by note.
I’ve been a sister good and true
For five and thirty years;
I’ve done wihat seemed imy part to do
And prayed my duty clear; 1
I’ve sung the hymns both slow and
quick, H
! Just as tire preacher read;
| And twice wnen ueacon Tubbs was
' sick
I took te floor and led!
: An now their bold newfangled wayis
Is connin’ all about;
| And I right dn any latter days,
1 Am fairly crowded out; ,
Today, the preacher, good old dear.
With tears all in his eyes,
Read, “I can read my title clear
To mansions in the skies.”
I always liked that blessed hymn,
I suppose 1 always will:
It somehow gratifies my notion,
In good old Ortonville;
But when that choir got up to sang
I couldn’t catch a word;
They sang the most dog-gohdest
thing
A body ever heard.
Some worldly chaps were standin’
near,
An’ when I see them grin,
1 bid farewell to every lear,
And boldly waded in,
I thought I’d chase "the tune along,
An’ tried with all my might; ,
But tho my voice is good* an’ strong,
1 couldn’t steer it right.
When they were high then 1 was low
And also contra-wise 1 ; 1
'And 1 too fast or they too slow,
; To “Mansions in the sVies.”
And after every verso, you know,
They played a little tune,
I didn’t understand, an’ so
I started in too soon.
I pitched It purty midlin’ high,
And fetched a lusty' tone,
But O, Alas! I found that I
Was singing all alone;
They laughed a little I am told,
But I had done my best;
And not a wave of trouble rolled 1
Across my peaceful breast.
And Sister Brown, I could hut look
She sits right front of me;
She never was no singing book
An’ never went to he;
But then she always tried to do
The best she could she said;
She understood the time right thru,
An’ kep’ it with her head;
But when she tried this morndn’
I har to laugh, or cough;
It kept her head a bobbin’ so,
It e’en a’most come off!
An’ Deacon Tubbs, he all broke down
As one anight well suppose;
He took one look at Sister Brown
And meekly scratched his nose.
He looked his hymn book thru and
thru,
And laid it on’ the seat,
And then a pensive sigh he drew,
And looked completely beat.
An’ when they took another bout,
He didn’t even rise; ,
But drawed his red bandanner out
An’ wiped his weepin’ eyes.
I’ve been a sister good and true,
For five and thirty years,
I’ve done what seemed my part,
An’ prayed my duty clear;
But death will stop my voice I know
For he is on my track;
An ? some day I’m to meein’ go
A nd. never .more come back.
An’ when the folks p»t urn to sing,
When’er that time shall be—
I do not want no patent thing
A squealin’ over me.
—Will Viarlton.

SENIORS ENTERTAINED
AT MI0NA SPRINGS
(Neva Byrd)
On Thursday night, April 28, Che
Seniors were entertained at Miona
Springs with a very delightful Prom
Dance. The hosts were Walter Joe
Hobbs and Jesse Rogers. Ten proms
of 15 minutes each wore given. At
the end of the fifth prom, they en
joyed a weincr roast. While going
to roast the weiners some of the
guesits had' to fall in a ditch, After
this the other five proms were given.
About 40 guests were present and
seemed to enjoy the occasion.
Altho they enjoyed the party, it
seems that most of them had 1 a hard
time getting there. Some got lost
and didn’t get there until 9 o’clock.
A certain car started home and
broke down twice. It happened to be
2-30 Friday morning when they got
home. It seems a shame for such a
nice party to end up this way.

(Sink Marshall)
The Reynolds town team defeated
the Reynolds High school team last
Monday by the lop-aided score of
18 to 6. It seems as tho the town
team found their batting eye and
used it to their advantage. Most of
their runs were scored' as a result
of long hits and carelessness ori the
part of tho high school team. The
battery for the .town team: was com
posed of Hugh Holloway, . pitcher,
and Weaver Crawford, catcher. Play
ing in the infield were Willoughby
Marshall, Clay Smith, Zack Weaver
and Carroll Tinsley, while the out
fielders wore Ernest Parker, Lonnie
Jones and Woodrow Cobold.
Although the high school team
rallied several times, it was kept
from scoring very much by the Ins
field of the town team. Zack Weaver
was an outstanding player for the
town team because of several spec
tacular catches, for again and again
he robbed the high school of sure
hits.
The Reynolds High school team
has scheduled a number o.f games to
be played in the near future, and ex
pects to he hitting its winning
stride in a short while.

SCIENCE EQUIPMENT
FINDS NEW HOME
(John Montgomery)
The ninth grade will have more
space about two weeks because the
laboratory will be moved 1 out into
the little room nevt to it. The room
will be fixed very nice for the lab
oratory.
The ninth grade room will look
much 'better because when • we are
trying experiments they will take
their equipment all over the room
and' will not put it back where it is
supposed to be. When the new room
is fixed more care may be taken with
the equipment.

denly started to sitting at the back
of the Taylor Mill school truck,
((better known as "Buzzard”), so
frequently.
Which one of the junior girls ha#
become such a Fannie Squeezer Fan.
Why three R. H. S. girls (from
the Taylor Mill district) have sud
denly dropped 1 hitch-hiking.
If a certain “Frosh” girl would
mind our suggesting a name for one
of her numerous cats. We think
“Fuzzy’s” cute.
Why a very sentimental junior
likes the song “Please Be Kind.”
Why a certain teacher from Tay
lor Mill and a certain one from R. H.
S. can’t seem to get together some
how for a date. Just ask Pelhe.
