When the Clock Went Wrong
Directed by Harry JacksonA young man who has been reproved for not reaching the office at the opening of business in the morning concludes that his watch, and not he, is in the wrong. He returns home one evening, and, after having told his wife to. have the jeweler call and regulate the alarm clock, and finding a strange man there with a bunch of clocks, about to depart, gives him his watch also to repair. It happens that the departing member is a sneak-thief who has been making a collection of clocks in that block, and he is naturally delighted to have a watch added to lighten his burden, in contrast to his heavy load. The wife soon returns with the jeweler, explanations follow, and the police are called. In the interim, the crook has met the young husband's employer, and by offering a bargain induced him to buy the watch. As the police approach the scene, the crook makes a get-away, leaving the clocks on the sidewalk. The police then rush in and arrest the buyer of the watch, charging him with stealing the clocks. He is identified by the young husband and released. The next morning he rises early and is determined to be on time. He rushes to the office, and, to his dismay, finds that he is the first to arrive, as the clock registers just 7:30 a.m.
