expressing this work is thus: The beli that nrsakes fourth’s place is said to '■'■make a bok," wliile the two others are said, respectively to ''run in qnuk'’ and to 11 run out guick." This latter work is snmetimes spoken of tlius: The bells that run in quick or out rjuick are. said to “run łhrougk the bob."
The bel! that passes the treble in 3-4 ls not allered in its work by a bob being called, but Hes the four blows beli ind as usual. The work of all the bells at a bob may therefore be briefly summed up thus; One beli Hes the four blows behind as usual, one beli makes fourth’s. and the twa others run through the bob.
It is, of course, of the greatest importance, immediatdy a bob is called, that each ringer sliould be able ta remember if it wij] cause an aheratton in his work, and what that alterabon will be. The following table sbould, therefore, be we 11 studied and committed U> memory.
A bob alters the work of the bells thus;

The beli th.it would have madę seconcTs place runs out quick.
The beli that w011 Id have dodged in 3-4 down nins in quick.
The beli that woulri ha w d-idged in np makes fourth‘s place, and tben
goer- down 10 lead.
Every beginner should also learn what alteration a bob causes in his work at the. following lead, supposing it to be a płatu lead, that is, a lead without a bob being called. For instance, the bells tha.t rau in, and out, will.at the ne.xl lead, do the work they were prevenled from doing by the l‘*ob being called; while the beli that makes fotirllis place will lie the four blows behlnd.
The practical poinLs to be observed at a bob-lead are that the bel! that makes fourth’s place will (after making that place) takt the treble and go tu, and tbe heli that runs straight in wiillurn the treble trom the lead. Alchough the beli that is lyirig the lour
