I REMEMBER | By Jim Bell I Remember The Old Bicycle Days I remember when the low wheels, they called safety bicyo- jes, first came into use. They were pretty clumsy contrapt- fons, The front wheel was much larger than the rear one.

J learned to ride on one of those things, The man who owned it offered to sell it to me for five dollars, but thanks to Lady Luck, If didn't have the five so I was saved from that unlucky invest- mont, [t wasn't long, however, til new and much i mproved machines began to appear.
