Excerpt from Winged Wheels in France

Faces and Paris received us within her gates. Exploring the surroundings of that great city as one can do only in an auto, we finally glided off through the forest of Fontainebleau and cote d'or to the mountains of the Vosges and thence over the Schlucht to the Rhine' Valley to Freiburg, and up to baden-baden. There the spirits of the woods seized upon us and we prompt ly got lost in the Black Forest, and so rolled on into Switzerland to Geneva and finally to Aix les-bains, where the journey ended and I bade goodby to my staunch car which had carried me without mishap or delay for near five thousand miles. To its winged wheels the highest mountains of France were no barrier.
