And the Clocks Were Slow.

But there is another kind of clock for which l have absolutely no usc,- the inconsistent clock, the clock that is neither consistently fast nor slow. One of the tragedies of my childhood was connected with an inconsistent clock. As a family, we favored clocks that were fast. Our dining room clock, by which father, brother and sister timed their breakfast for the three minutes of eight (and l ab- brcViatcd my breakfast to get to school at eight O'cIoCO. was kept fast. And then, one morning, it went slow without our Knowing it. some times, in the past, I had had to run to school, but this particular morning l should have had ample time, and was walking comfortably along till I camC within sight of the Schooihousc. l shall never forget the thrill of dis may that shot through me when l saw not even tho group of hurrying %tvuGglcrS who were my customary companions. There wasn't d soul in sight, and tho last bell was ringing. How my heart pumped. as I tore up that long staircase, and how abS0- lutely disgraccd I felt as I sank down in the dressing room and, with lcadcn heart, heard the morning eN- crCiscs going on inside and knew that for the first time in nine years of school attendance I was late. l felt as if had been betrayed.
 To be sure. 1 have since missed many other appointments by too op- timistic beliefs in the amount of fast ness l might expect in A consistently fast clock. But, somehow, these cN-

\ Perpetual Source of Joy.

I cannot bear to have a slow clock around. Every time I look at it. feel as if l had lost that fifteen min- utcS anew.
 A fast clock. on tho other hand, is a perpetual source Of joy We look at it in the morning, and We say, No need to hurry about getting up. It's only scvon by that clock, and it was fifteen minutes fast, and it's probably gained some in the night" When Luncl, Time Comes Too Soon
 Or we turn a harusscd gaze at it, after an ovcrcrowdcd morning, when lunch time has stolen unawarcs upon us and the potatoes are not yet peeled, and we say: "Wcn, anyway that's fifteen minutes fast"
 And again, at bedtime. we look up from the alluring book and feel a real tenderness for the clock that is thoughtful enough to grant us that fifteen minute rcprievc.
 l have heard people sing the praises of the clock that is always just right; but, for my part, I would not have so Sclf-rightcous and un- yielding ana unintereSting a time keeper in my house.
