     Car fever hits the Graphic 
     
    
   
   
    
     Car fever has hit the office. All four of us have made a car 
     
     change in the last few weeks. I was the last to succumb to the 
     
     fever. Betsy (my mode of travel for the last 12 years) has found 
     
     anew home. My new (to me) car has been named Molly and I 
     
     took possession of her last Wednesday. 
     
    

    
     It took me almost the whole afternoon to transport 12 years of 
     
     accumulated items from one car to the other. I did try to elimi- 
     
     nate some of the items, but only managed to reduce the num- 
     
     ber of pens from nine to two. Everything else was essential, at 
     
    
   
   
    
     least I think so. One must be prepared for any type of emer-' 
     
    
   
   
    
     ency. 
     
     4 Betsy was a five-speed standard and Molly is an automatic. I 
     
     have to keep telling myself no clutch, no clutch. I have been 
     
     _ known to forget when driving someone else’s (automatic) car 
     
     and can unwittingly stop on a dime - two feet on a brake works 
     
     wonders when are: especially when you're used to 
     
     putting the clutch to the floor. 
     
    

    
     I'm sure I won't be long getting used to not having to shift 
     
     and to remember that one foot can now rest easy. I even have 
     
     cruise control. I did notice on Saturday, when I took in the home 
     
     tours in Knutsford, that I tried a couple of times to find the gear 
     
     shift on the floor. A minor detail. 
     
    

    
     The tour was wonderful, by the way, and the tea at the 
     
     Knutsford schoolhouse was exceptional. I enjoyed every 
     
     minute of my day. —
