AUTO SHOW TO OPEN

When the automobile show opens In

the history OF an industry now involving
millions OF dollars have been made In the
past year and will be shown for the nrst
time In the big garden, where about $50
concerns have taken sll the available
space for exhibition purposes.
There has been Improvement In almost
every part OF the machine: from the
sparkling plug TO the tires. II wasn't so
very long ago that the efforts OF the pion-
eer automobile makers were directed to-
ward building machines that could run.
There was no particular attempt TO have
pretty designs, 10 save weight, or 10
make comfortable riding The main idea
was to have the machine 60.
The makers have long since proved that
the cars can GO not for a mile but for
thousands OF miles They have proved
that the machines are reliable and safe
and the improvements are now In the line
OF increasing speed, securing added COM
forts in riding and furnishing construc-
ton that Is simple in operation and safe
In the hands OF even the novice. That the
manufacturers have succeeded In their
efforts along there lines will be proven by
the fifth annual show which will hold
forth at the Garden during the week fol-
lowing January IL. The cry for improve
ment has been answered 10 almost the ST.
