From the September 5, 2018, MidWeek (DeKalb County, Illinois) "Looking Back."
1918, 100 Years Ago.
"A tourist, while driving across the railroad tracks at Fourth Street this noon. lost a wheel, and was held up for some time.
"A gang of strong fellows standing nearby picked up the flivver so that the wheel could be placed again and then pushed the car clear of the tracks. There is one advantage of a flivver, it can be handles easily by a couple strong men in an accident like that."
