We will open the book. Its pages are blank. We are going to put words on them ourselves. The book is called Opportunity and its first chapter is New Year's Day. Edith Lovejoy Pierce

"School-Bell"
Poem by Eleanor Farjean (1881-1965)

     Nine-o’clock Bell!
     Nine-o’clock Bell!
All the small children and big ones as well,
Pulling their stockings up, snatching their hats,
Cheeking and grumbling and giving back-chats,
Laughing and quarreling, dropping their things,
These at a snail’s pace and those upon wings,
Lagging behind a bit, running ahead,
Waiting at corners for lights to turn red,
     Some of them scurrying,
     Others not worrying,
Carelessly trudging or anxiously hurrying,
All through the streets they are coming pell-mell
     At the Nine-o’clock
          Nine-o’clock
          Nine-o’clock
                    Bell!
