And to tell you the truth, I wasn't too sure that he was awake either. I could hear the tick-tock, tick-tock of the old clock but there wasn't any sign of the Grandfather." Hanid, the shadow-girl with the turned-about name, to whom Christopher Cricket was now talking, smiled as she said: "Grandfather Clock is just a big, old clock, Christopher. There really isn't any Grandfather in jet To Hanid's surprise, Christoph er said: "You're not right about that, Hanid. Names mean what they say. A cuckoo clock has a cuckoo in it. An alarm clock has an al: And a Grandfather Clock wouldn't be a grandfather clock if it didn't have a grand- father. Anyw: continued Christopher, led to find him if I could, because I wanted to play him one of my songs. So I went up close to the clock and called out. 'Gramp! Come out, come out!" "And what happened?" asked Hanid eagerly. "He came out," topher. Hanid exclaimed replied Chris- in astonish- ment: "What did he look like!" Very Dark "Well," said Christopher, "that is hard to say. It was very dark (being the middle of the night, you know) but he seemed to be quite tall and thin and I think he had a white beard The only thing about him I could really see clearly was his face. It was as round as a plate." f "And all around the edge of his face were numbers, just like the face of the clock; except that he didn't keep his hands in front of his face the way a clock does.

Christopher played a song for the Grandfather Clock and 1 told him that I wanted to play him a song on my guitar." "What did he say to that?" asked Hanid. "Was he pleased?" "Very pleasex ceed. He said that if I played him a song on my guitar, he'd play me a song on his gongs. 1 said that would be fine, so we both sat down on the stairs and I played him a very jolly tune on my guitar. It was so fast and lively and jolly that all of a sudden there was old graiip dancing around and round and smiling with that round face of his. You've never "seen such a merry sight. "I've been keeping time for so long," Grandfather Clock said, "that 1 am glad for a chance to dance around a bit. You can't im- agine how stiff my old bones get from standing in one. place, day after day, month after month, year after year. 1 wish I were a sundial out in the garden, or a clock in the old church steeple, or even just a little wrist watch that, unlike me, always gets out to see the world, Folks say that all clocks go: 1 go--but I also stand still." "And then hy on his gong: "Was it pretty played me a song said Christopher. " Hanid wanted "Pretty short," said Christoph- er. "It just had two notes. You see it was just two o'clock. And the next instant, there he was back inside the clock again, standing perfectly still, with that round face of his and the num- bers all around the edge." SUCCESSFUL INVESTIGATION When satisfied the magistrate was dis- with the evidence pre- sented, court was adjourned to the home of a Whitby farmer who was charged with having 500 gallons of potent applejack in large casks in his cellar. Hum! Qs You Can Get Your House Ready For Winter With A B. of M. Loan For Home Improvement It's wise to think about the cold weather a good while before the winds sharpen and the leaves be- gin to fall. And you probably have things at home youd like to take care of before it's right on top of you. The furnace, for ex- ample, or a good insulating job. These improvements to your home will have a happy effect up- on your health and comfort, but they cost money. And you may not be able to find at once the necessary cash, even though you would have no difficulty in meet- ing the amount out of your an- nual income. In that case, drop into: the Bank of Montreal at Oakville, and have a chat with Stan Otton, the manager, The B of M has special personal loans for home improvemep If you borrow $100, for example, it will cost you only 27 cents a month, when ri paid over a year. B of M person- al loans are repayable in ea instalments, and Mr. Otton will be very happy to discuss with you how such a loan can be applied to your own problems (1c42) ~EETREY ART MARCHAND Formerly with 4 .
