This sense of inferiority, coupled with

We bury our heads beneath the covers

In such moments of stress an alarm

enemy. Three things must be done to
the average alarm clock each night to
prepare it for its morning hullabaloo.
First, it must be wound up, then it must
be set, and then the switch at the top
must be moved from "0ff'' to "0n." Omit
