I boarded the train and reclined in a seat. Equipped with paper, my trip was complete. Within a few minutes I was on my way, The trip was long, the day was gray. Reading my paper I was soon attracted by This startling headline as it caught my eye: Mr, Wilson Yerger, chemist, winner of Nobel Prize. Among other things, he has invented artificial eyes. Interrupted in my reading by a short screech, I glanced outside, to see within reach - An advertising car driven by Robert Fries. It seems all Bob has to do is ride in ease.
