This year an Overland-better than last
years $3.50 car-is being sold for $1,000.
That is because the tremendous production
has cut the cost 20 per cent.
A Is horsepower car, capable of so miles

and magnetic. Never did a maker give
nearly so much for the money.

cheap in comparison as the $1,000 model.
The Overlands are unique in simplicity.
They operate by pedal control. A ten-year-
old child can master the Car in a moment
They are made in the same factory, and
by the same men as made the Pope-Toledo

Automobile dealers Of Omaha are already
making big preparations for the annual
automobile show which will be held at the
Auditorium February s-to March 8.
They are securing show cars and chassis
from their factories in anticipation OF the
show and are also getting promises OF
polished parts exhibits which are now be
ing shown at other large shows.
Omaha has a reputation to maintain in
the line OF automobile shows for the ex-
hibition OF last season and the year before
set a pace which will be hard to follow or
10 excel. Last year space was at a pre-
MUM and besides the show was most
beautiful, but this time more space viii
be needed and an effort will be made to
make the show much more beautiful.
More space win be provided by using the
basement Of the Auditorium by utilizing
the basement for commercial vehicles Of
which q large display viii be made. Deal
ers feel certain that the time has come
where there will be a heavy demand for
commercial wagons as the experimental
stage in these machines has passed and
they are now being built on a more SEN

have commercial wagons Of different tynes

Handsome Decorations Arranged.
The show will be beautiful at the expen-
diture of a large amount of money and
some good management. The managers of
the Madison garden show at New York
had a large amount Of statuary and beau
tiful decorations which they provided at
an expense of $4,000. Omaha visitors will
be able to see the pick OF these decora-
lions as they have been secured for the
Omaha show. Some OF the electrical effects
used last year a been preserved, but the
lighting will be doubled this year that
every nook of the big building may be as
light as day.
Every dealer in Omaha is preparing to

during the show and visitors win be sur

which Omaha has to offer. Some Of these
are unsurpassed by any in the entire we st.
More are going up every day and the limit

The question Is often asked, How will
all these garages be able to make money ~

The Pope Toledo Plant

Mr.. WHY'S next step was to buy the
Pope-Toledo factory-one of the greatest
automobile plants in the country. This
gave him four well-equipped factcries-just
10 months from his start.
But the Toledo plant wasn't sufficient.
So he gave his builders just 40 days to COM
plete an addition larger than the original
factory.
Then he equipped these buildings with
the most modern machinery-with every
conceivable help and convenience-so that
cars could be built here for less than any
where else.
Now 1000 men work on Overland cars.
The output is valued at $4,000 per day.
The contracts from dealers for this seasons
delivery call for 10000 cars.
Now this man has acquired % acres
around his Toledo plant. And his purpose
is to see-from this time onAthat those
who want Overlands get them.

iiVeries have been spoken for, showing
that the buying public is beginning to
realize that an early order is necessary II
they expect early deliveries.

sold. AS the new cars went out the de-
mand became overwhelming. The factory
capacity was outgrown in short order.
Then tents were erected.
Another factory was acquired, then an
other; but the demand soon outgrew all
three.
During the next fiscal year these factories
sent out 4,075 Overland cars. Yet the de-
mand was not half supplied.

Dealers had ordered 5000 of the 1910
Overland models before the first car was

like it.
And without any advertising.

$4,000, 900. Yet the Overland is but two
years old.
