Lisa the Bell Ringer had a very important task to do in the morning. She knew that because she had a string tied to her finger. Only, the bell ringer couldn't RECALL what it was she was supposed to do. She checked her calendar and all her notes to see if anything would JOG her MEMORY, but nothing seemed to work. She knew she tied the string to her finger to REMIND her to do something, but she FORGET what. She went around to everyone in town to ask if they knew what she was having trouble RECOLLECTING, but most of them just told the bell ringer to BEAR IN MIND that they couldn't KEEP TRACK of what they had to do and what she had to do, then they would shoo her away as they were waiting for the bell to ring before they could start their day. Everyone in town, it seemed had their own job, but no one could start until some one rang the bell. She asks just about everyone but nothing RANG ANY BELLS for her. Oh well, she thought as she went home thinking maybe it would COME TO HER LATER. It never did. It was a weird day, the bell didn't even ring, so nobody in town got anything done. Maybe she finally remembers something on REMEMBRANCE DAY.
