Electric cars
When Ray and I were first married our 1932 car gave up the ship and we were in the market for a new car. They had an ad in the paper about a new car costling $950. We thought we would try it. It was very small and we had to recharge it everynight. Ray drove it to work at The Topeka Daily Capital and the printers liked to pick it up and hide it from him. Once they put it in the lobby of the Orpheum Theater which was in the same block as the "Capital". My mother was afraid we would hit a dog and have a wreck. Riding in was like riding inside my mother's sewing machine. At the end of a month we advertised it and sold it for just what we had paid for it to my mother's relieve and brought another car. I cannot remember what kind. It was an interesting month.
