The year of l9l5 or 1916 our father took the interurban and went
to Indianapolis, Indiana and bought a Nathional seven Passenger
touring car. 0f course, the car had no heater but it had curtains
and a big spot light on the drivers side. It was very cold riding
in the car especially in the winter time but we managed and it
always got us to where we were goingr excePt when the roads were
thawed and muddy and i f that were the case we stayed at home. If
we needed groceries the trip was made to Illiopolis or Niantic fn
the storm rig pulled by two horses or in the farm wagon. The storm
rig was glassed in and this made it a lot warmer. It had little
su"ts in-it but it was crowded when all severr of us went to church.
These rerniniscences have teft a great inpression and recolIection
on nry part.
l./e should all enjoy our life, live our life wisely now, for the
past is gone and no one knows the future.
