Das Glockenspiel
By Bruce Clark

Hey Robbie,  Better check your German!!  You said: Glocken+spiel =
clock playing.  Glocken are bells.  Glockenspiel would be bell-playing.

Bruce Clark

 [ Ulp!  You are absolutely right, Bruce.  I had clocks on my mind !
 [ My modern translating dictionary says that 'das Glockenspiel' =
 [ glockenspiel in English, too, and in German it also can mean the
 [ carillon or the chimes in a clock.  -- Robbie
