Thought some of you might enjoy this little article concerning gas v electric.
This was published in 1910.



Isaac Knoch has ordered a Detroit Electric Automobile.  It is generally
conceded that the electric is the coming machine.  With the present enormous
demand for gasoline the supply of that fuel will some day be exhausted.
Edison has perfected his storage battery to such a degree that it is becoming
more generally applied for power.  The cost of maintenance so far as power is
concerned is nominal.  Then too the odor of gasoline which is unpleasant too
many, is entirely eliminated.
