Grandfather
in a
car
a slow moving vehicle adequate in its day, that has disappeared
because it could not meet the modern problem of carrying many
people over long distances.
Your Grandfather had a big heavy Watch not much of a time
keeper and very expensive in upkeep. Perhaps for sentimental,
reasons you are wearing it today. You are wrong. You are
risking the loss of a valued heirloom without any resulting ndvon
tage. On the contrary, hindered by its"inaccuracy,( you are hand
icapped in your use of many other modern facilites. Put your
grandfathers watch where it belongs in a safe place.
