AUTO AND STYLE SHOW SUCCESS.
Latest Undertaking Of Hampton BUSH
ness Mon . Winner.

Special to Times Republican.
Hampton, April 22.-The people of
this city are feeling just little elated
at the degree Of success that has been
attained in the first auto and style show
that has been attempted here. No small
part of the credit for it should be given
to the members Of the commercial as
sociation and our live automobile
dealers.
The big building Of the foundry and
machinery company made an ideal
place. and after the decoration COM
mittee had done its part, the place was
transformed to remarkable degree.
With southern smilax, ferns. hundreds
of potted plants and large numbers
of cut flowers, the big rooms were
scarcely recognizable.
Music was furnished by the Iowa
Falls orchestra and by local talent The
lectures by r. A. Leavell, of Chicago,
on the care and operation Of an auto
mobile were very instructive and at
tracted many careful listeners.
Altogether the show was fully up to
the expectations of its promoters. and
it is safe to say that like event
will be put on here each season in the
future-as long as the motor vehicle is
as popular as it now is, at least.
