Ring out, wild bells, to the wild sky,
The flying cloud the frosty light:
The year is dying in the night;
Ring out, wild bells, and let him die.
Ring out the old, ring in the new,
Ring, happy bells, across the snow;
The year Is going, let him go:
Ring out the false, ring in the true.
Ring out the feud OF rich and poor,
Ring in redress to all mankind.
Ring in the nobler modes of life.
With sweeter rumors, purer life.
Ring in the love OF truth and right,
Ring in the common love of good.
Ring out old shapes Of foul disease;
Ring out the narrowing lust of gold;
Ring out the thousand wars of old,
Ring in the thousand years Of peace.
Ring in the valiant man and free,
The larger heart, the kindlier hand;
Ring out the darkness of the land,
Ring in the Christ that is to be.

Captain Morse is from Syracuse, N.

attempting to put new life into the
1t is rather unusual to put editorial
project
opinions into news article, but the
park proposition is the biggest thing
ever attempted in the Shenandoah

of Shenandoah County must, at least,
meet the interest shown in other sec
lions of the State
Thirty-six hundred and sixty-seven
acres are allotted to this county and,
thus far, only 1045 acres have been
bought. Less than a third. Think
of it,
On Monday night there will be an
other meeting in the Court House.
and it is hoped that there will be
a ready response to the call.
1t is so hard to persuade folks
that the Shenandoah National Park
is the greatest thing ever offered to

our citizens to get busy. back up
the park and invest in the. biggest
