calmly over to the sink and once more rinsed off a piece of apparatus. M-Mrs. Gibsonf' I stammered, D-Do you know there are frogs in there?,' Louise shrieked. Mrs. Gibson looked at me blankly for a moment. What? Oh . . . oh, yes,', she said simply. Now, please, Joanne, pay attention to the experimentf' Impressed, I obeyed. -Joanne Warner This is the last time I,ll look at that clock! How many times have I said that? When I am writing an exam, it seems that clocks have a peculiar fascination for me. I had entered the room calm. cool and confident. Now, thanks to the endless tick-tock, tick--tock, tick-tock of that leering face on the wall, I am reduced to a doddering, panic-stricken fool whose chances of passing are slim. I had come in, sat down at the desk, and written the first half on my paper when the strangest feeling came over me that someone, something was taking a more than usual interest in my work. Glancing hurriedly up, my eyes met the blank face of a clock on the wall directly in front of me. I stared at it, it stared at me, letting out explosive tick-tocks at regular intervals. Returning to my paper, I concentrated as well as I could. Four more questions to do and then the end. How much time do I have? Slowly, and with a guilty feeling, I raised my eyes to the clock again. Its minute hand held my attention. It was impossible to tear my eyes from it. Steadily it moved, minute by minute passed with a distinct and audible click as three o'clock was reached. Half an hour for four questions! I tore my eyes from the clock and again riveted them on my paper. As my ears strained to catch each sound that it made, I found myself writing and muttering, Two words for the tick, one for the tockf' My pen flew over the paper, trying to keep up with the ticks and the tocks. Now, how much time was left? Fifteen minutes! As I gazed on the clock's face with terror and awe, watching the minutes tick away, my mind was silently counting the ticks, multiplying by sixty, subtracting the number of days in a week. The answer should be the number of tocks in half an hour. Why didn't it come out? Perhaps if I . . . Ten minutes left! Back to my paper I went. All self-control had vanished. The remaining ten minutes were spent between glaring at the clock and quickly writing short phrases which made absolutely no sense. Now it is over. I am con- vinced that time will pass, but will IP -Lynne Sawdon 29
