Evening Republican, Volume 21, Number 205, Rensselaer, Jasper County, 7 September 1918 — GASOLINE REGULATION. [ARTICLE]

GASOLINE REGULATION.

The order of the U. S. fuel administration to conserve gasoline was very well observed in this county last Sunday. There were some cars in use but questioning looks of citizens along the Mghways made it almost like running a gauntlet for the autoist and there we’re no joy rides. The regulation is in effect tomorrow, the only change being that during the past week, the fuel administration has made a statement that it will be perfectly proper for people in rural communities to use autos for the purpose of attending church. The order last Sunday had a serious effect on church attendance. Tomorrow the churches should be crowded. —Carroll County Citizen-Times.
