NO. 12—THE GRANDMOTHER CLOCK
..
Tick Tock end the Twins were
very careful about lining the old
bani) clock in the jeweler’s window.
"I feel simply wonderful." said
the old clock happily. "Won't the
clock mender be surprised to find
me going. and right to the very dot.
too."
"I shouldn't be surprised." said
the little clock fairy. “Here. Nancy.
take the key. Nick, you take the
oil-csn and I'll take the other
things. We must be going."
“There are a lot of clocks in the
world." said the banjo clock. "Not
only in houses. but in churches and
towers, There's Big Ben in London
end the famous clock of Btrasberg.
”6-"
"8h!" whispered Tick Tool: to the
old clock. "I want them to be sur-
prised."
"Oh. I see," ticked the clock wise-
“Well. ‘ood-bye. Come again.
My home is to be in Norristown sf-
ter this. I hear that I have been
sold for s great deal of money."
"No doubt." said Tick Tock. “And
it is nothing but right. What can be
nicer than a lovely old clock?"
"Thank you." said the clock.
Tick Tock and the Twins left the
jewelry store. carefully .lockinggthe
door sfter them.
“Where do We go now?" asked
Nancy.
"1 think we‘d better go and fix up
an old grandmother clock that I
know about." said Tick Tock.
"Grandmother!" laughed the
TWini. "You mean ‘grandt‘sther.’
don't you! We never heard of a.
tmdmother clock."
”then." said Tick Tock severely.
for he didn’t like to be laughed at.
"it is high time you were hearing of
then. Of course there are grand.

“You are I nice old clock and wears going to fix you all up," said Nancy.
mother clocks—plenty of them.
They are exactly like grandfather
clocks. only not as tall. They have
shorter necks. one might say. Their
faces and hoods are about the same
size."
Off they went through the dark
like three little sprites, and after a.
while they reached another old
house.
It was a. quaint old house and
still quainter inside as the Twins
found. There stood the old grand-
"mother clock Just as Tick Tock had
said. and beside it a spinning wheel.
“On the other side stood on old
kneading trough for bake-days. as
Tick Tock explained. With a heavy
board over the top_it made a. fine
table. '
"An old lady lives here who had
these things when she was quite
young." explained the fairy. "She
like’to keep these old thing about
her."
"Yes, and if you look on the pack
of my cherry case." said the grand-
mother clock. “you will see some
tiny brass nails in an uneven row.
Every year on her birthday. when
Mrs. Gordon was a. little girl. her
father drove in one tiny nail to
shot! how much she had grown.
But shut a while she was taller
than I was. so he bed to stop."
The Twins looked. and
enough there we~ the heads
sevenl tiny brass nails.
"You are a nice old clock. and we
are going to fix you nil u." said
Nancy.
"Thank you." ticked the old
grandmother clock gratefully. “I
wish you could fix old Mrs. Gordon
up too. Her rheumatism is so had.”
"I wish we could." said Tick Tock.
