This grew out of my Down Da Road I Go Blog which now has become primarily what I'm doing and music. I was getting so much history in it, I spun this one off and now have World War II and War of 1812 blogs which came off this one. The Blog List below right has all the way too many blogs that I write.

Work Or Fight Order and Sunday Driving During World War I
You can read two Looking Back 100 Years Ago from 1918 in my Down Da Road I Go blog from yesterday, February 21, 2019. I accidentally put them in that blog and didn't want to redo them in this one.
In short, you were not supposed to go joy riding on a Sunday because of gasoline concerns. Plus, an industry deemed important to the World War I war effort didn't have to worry about its workers either working in a war industry or signing up to fight.
