M. now and are due fo Buenos Aires about one o'clock, so it will mean going through customs again, then looking for a hotel. I believe there is a rehearsal tonight. I hope there wtil be some letters from you st the theatre. THE CLOCK What would we do without tfae clock To tell tiw time of day; And also tell tfae time of night— For night-time follows., day. iWriii*-*!*; ar tithe You're busy as can But every minute by the clock Is kept quite perfectly. You're tired before the day is done You take a little rest- But for the clock the time you slept You never would have guessed. So every minute of tiw houra it takes to make our day Is ticked off by the faithful clock, Whether we work or play. Let us be faithful as the clock— (For others follow us) And on the sabbath morn arise Someone has put it thus. "When you am lying late in bod On God's appointed day; When you forsake assembling . In. Christ's appointed way; •smember, there is sfomeone else ' Will sleep and drive out, too; You cannot get away from' it— Someone will follow you." —Ellen Irvin.

THE CLOCK What would we do without tfae clock To tell tiw time of day; And also tell tfae time of night— For night-time follows., day. iWriii*-*!*; ar tithe You're busy as can But every minute by the clock Is kept quite perfectly. You're tired before the day is done You take a little rest- But for the clock the time you slept You never would have guessed. So every minute of tiw houra it takes to make our day Is ticked off by the faithful clock, Whether we work or play. Let us be faithful as the clock— (For others follow us) And on the sabbath morn arise Someone has put it thus. "When you am lying late in bod On God's appointed day; When you forsake assembling . In. Christ's appointed way; •smember, there is sfomeone else ' Will sleep and drive out, too; You cannot get away from' it— Someone will follow you." —Ellen Irvin.
