ONLY A COG IN A WHEEL !
A man there was of unusual gifts
Bearing an honored name, |
Life came to him with outstretched
hands |
Proffering wealth and fame; |
But he carelessly turned his head
away, |
The prize made little appeal |
Contcntinfi himself with a minor part
He was only a cog in a wheel,
In the image of God this man was
made,
With power to do and to serve;
Strong of mind and body was he,
But he lacked essential nerve.
So he drifted along from day to day,
Without ambition or zeal,
Playing a dull and nondescript part,
He was only a cog in a wheel.
What place do you fill in life’s ma-
A Chim'si ifts aright?
re you using your gifts aright?
To-day have you wrought some truly
fine thing,
Can {iouhgnim to have fought a good
g
Will it be said that you played the
game,
That your life was productive and
real?:
Or will the world say, as it goes on
its way,
He was on{y a cog in a wheel?

The Geneva Swiss Bell Ringers‘
are a male quartet offering a pro-|

numbers that we all know, the latest |
popular songs of the day, some of‘
the classics, standard numbers on |
the hand bells, character readings, |
vocal solos, and other instrumentull
novelties. This i€ an organization
of exceptionally versatile artists.!
The members of the company have |
all had splendid musical education,
making possible not only excellent
solo work but ensemble efforts of
unusual merit. Their performance|
‘has a brilliancy and “pep” that
makes it decidedly worth while.
The primary object of a male
quartet is to entertain, and there
are few quartets in the field today
better equipped to do so than this
company. Their program offers
sufficient variety to hold the atten
tion of any audience. The Geneva
Swiss Bell Ringers carry a peal of
seventy-five hand bells made by a
secret process, the largest one
weighing seventeen pounds. This|
company has appeared with great
success in many parts of the coun-‘
try. |
Monticellonians are highly elated
over the announcement that, on the
evening of November b6th, at the
school auditorium, the Geneva Swiss
Bell Ringers will appear in a con
cert, coming to this little city under
the exclusive direction of the Pied
mont Bureau, of Asheville, North
