OF the Atlanta Auditorium

the first visitors to Atlanta S
third automobile show.
When the doors swing back
they will reveal the most hand
somely staged show Dixie has
ever known, the most brilliantly
lighted show in America S his
tory. and the first showing IN
America Of the ears that will
make motor history through the
season Of 1913.
It win be into q transformed
Auditorium that visitors will be
ushered. The vast, bleak bar
renness Of the interior Of this
huge building has been obliterat-
ed. Instead, there are new walls,
new roof, new floor covering,
all in tremendously blending
shades Of pink, green and white,
And exquisitely framed in this
handsome setting and wonder
fully illuminated and glorliied
are Americas best automobiles.
II is hard to refrain from superla-
tives. The 1913 show'-for such, IN

above other Southern shows and other

tions and in the illumination, and the

A Boost For Center Control.
The buyer of 1913 cars insists on
being able to get from The drivers seat
to the sidewalk without having to get
ont in the street and walk around the
front or rear OF the car. and it is this
fact that has made the placing of the
change gear lever and the emergency
brake lever in the center Of the car so
popular of. late. With the levers in the
center and "a door on each side, the
driver is able to step from his seat to
the sidewalk unpleasantness OF
having to get out in the mud is elimi-
mated
The agent whose car is not priced
and sold fully equipped very soon llnds

with his old gag, for the buyer Of 1918
cars demands a good. serviceable top
and storm curtains, an adjustable wind
shield and a good, high grade speedom-
etcr to register the mileage covered.
and such necessities as tire irons and
foot and robe rail are considered part
of the car itself.
Good Brakes Demanded.
When it comes to the mechanical

given to the punishment Pome-
