Summary Note

Margaret tells about the first time her mother Adelle saw a motorcar. It was in Racine, and the whole town had rushed into the street to see it. When it came a woman was riding it gaily. Adelle was disguted to see it, because no respectable girl had been willing to ride in a motorcar. (Length 0:59)
