Installed xntp, if it wan't already installed.
I have a script in /etc/cron/cron.hourly called settime with the execute 
attribute set.  The script contains:
#!/bin/bash
/usr/sbin/ntpdate -b 199.240.130.1

In the config file /etc/ntp.conf  I added the two server lines below 'fudge'
server  127.127.1.0     # local clock
fudge   127.127.1.0 stratum 10  
server  199.240.130.1   # ntp1.kansas.net
server  199.240.130.12  # ntp2.kansas.net
in case I ever make xntpd an active service.
But, once an hour, my clock gets the latest setting from a time server.
