BY HARRY WARD.

With an automobile show and an au.

have their hands full during the second
month Of the new year. Plans for both
affairs are well advanced.
The automobile show, which will be
held In Convention Hall during the

opinion Of T. oliver Probey, chairman
Of the show. and his associates. be one
Of the most elaborate trade exhibitions
ever staged in Convention Hall.
The automobile carnival which will
be inaugurated the week following the
show will have many unique features.

play complete line Of models OF the

will be an "opening week. somewhat
on the order Of similar affairs held In
the old bicycle days.
Many Of the Washington dealers will
attend the double automobile show In
New York cary In January. at which
time they will arrange with the fac
tories they represent to have som. Of
the New York show cars sent to Wash.

they may wish to visit.
"Opening weeks" have proved highly

Use Lighter Oil
In Cold Weather

"If every maj, who drives his car dur
ing the winter knew 1t he would save
himself possible bother by changing to
a lighter grade Of oil when the weather
becomes COLDER" said w. p. Barnhart.
the Everitt dealer. In a group that were
discussing winter driving 4 day or two
ago.
Some motors, you know. are sup.
nosod to have heavy grade Of oil. and
these are the ones l mean In particular.
1t depends somewhat on the o!ling sys-
TEN, too. In the first place, the motor
should have plenty Of oil. and II the
heavy grade Is used, the cold, having
made the oil thicker. it will not feed
through the pipes as readily as when II
Is warm and tn nner,
"If the oiiing system is such that al
the oil is poured directly into the crank
case. or II the reservoir Is right on the
motor where II will be kept warm, nc
change IL required. In the case of q
motor using an oil pump and leads tC
the various parts, tho lighter grades
should be used. and the leads cleaned
well when the change Is made. 1t will
be found that the motor starts more

for severa! hours.

Nonstop Records
Were Once Big Test

when went into the motor car
business eleven years ago our chief
occupation was trying to exceed the
last nonstop record. which ut that
time was about eighteen miles" said
a well-known Washington automo-
bile dealer. Most OF the cars then
were steamers. The first gasolene
cars did not increase the distance
greatly. The carburetor, timers. or
spark plugs usually developed some
aiimcnt that effectively stopped the
progress OF the car
"The contrast between those cars
and the present-dny product Is sim
ply staggering. For instance, we'll

run OF 900 miles from wichita. Kan:

Other Makes
Difference Shows in the Wear

To the unframed eye the Kuppen-
heimer garment looks much the 9ane
as the ordinary kind. A common prac-
tice OF certain manufacturers is to
doctor a poorly made suit by ironing
the shape into 1t. This makes 1t al
most impossible to select properly
made, serviceable suit by the appear
ance of the suit l,one. The sure way
to get an honestly tailored suit is to ST.
lect one with the Kuppenhcmer label
In 1t.
The House of Kuppenhelmer cannot,
afford to doctor their garments. They
have built up u reputation for excellent
clothes which they cannot afford to in
jurc by turning out poorly made gar
ments. In like manner Grosner's, lrl3
name for handling only the best ready
to-wear clothes and when a suit pur-
cha sed at this store Is not satisfactory
the management gladly makes, it good.
While the ordinary, REVOLUTIONARY
day you put 1t on. It often happens that
within weeks time the shoulders will
warp out OF shape and dozen more
CARING faults will become. evident.
On the other hand, FIuppcnhcim"r
clothes are ep, and tail3rea IN perIest
, lines to the end. No matter how often
they get wet, no matter how they arc
pulled and twisted, they retain their
original lines indefinitely: In short. a
Kuppenhemer suit that fits you snuGly
when you buy 1t will tit YOU snugly as
long az YOU chose to wear It.
