- There was once a man who for some reason or other, gave up going to Mass. Every Sunday while Mass was being read he read a newspaper or played a musical instrument to while the time away.
One Sunday when he was about to read a newspaper the clock on the dresser started to ring and wondering at the strange ring of the clock he turned and looked at it. He was seized with terror when saw that the face of the clock was "on fire". He prepared as quickly as he could and went to Mass. He reached there in time and from that forth he never missed Mass on Sundays or holidays as long as he was able to go to the church.- Collector
