Eksempel: Robyn catches the eye of a young West Indian…

Robyn caught the eye of a young West Indian…

Halted on the inside lane, Robyn catches the eye of a young West Indian with Rastafarian dreadlocks, hunched in the entrance of a boarded-up shop, and smiles, a friendly, sympathetic, anti-racist smile. To her alarm the young man immediately straightens up, takes his hands out of the pockets of his black leather jacket, and comes over to her car, stooping to bring his head level with the window. He mouths something through the glass which she cannot hear. The car in front moves forward a few yards, but when Robyn inches forward in turn the young man lays a restraining hand on the Renault’s wing. Robyn leans across the passenger seat and winds the window down a little way. […]
    “Sorry – I can’t stop!” she cries and lets out the clutch. Mercifully the traffic progresses for fifty yards before it stalls again, and the Rasta does not pursue her further, but Robyn keeps a nervous eye on her rear-view mirror.
    Robyn sees a roadsign to West Wallsbury, the area in which J. Pringle & Sons is situated, and gratefully follows it.

181476_opgave_2 Story of the sudsiest baby-gentle soap in a SWAN’S age. Once upon a time there was a lady who lost her temper every day… and twice on some days… all on account of S.O.A.P. If she got a very special soap for the baby, it didn’t suds up worth a cent. And the sudsy soap she used for dishes wasterribly hard on her hands. One day a REAL friend said: “Try Swan… it’s pure as castilles SWAN suds faster than other floating soaps.” So the lady bought a bar of SWAN… broke it in half_ put one good-looking cake in in the kitchen and one in the bathroom… and_ Now there’s cooing in the nursery Singing in the bathtub and laughter in the kitchen. No more strong, easy-to-waste package soap in that house_ because SWAN… pure and mild as the finest of castilles.. gives plenty of baby-gentle suds for everything And it’s more real soap per penny than ANY leading toilet soap tested. SWAN yourself… for baby, dishes, bath, duds. Swan-derful! MADE BY LEVER BROTHERS COMPANY, CAMBRIDGE, MASS.
