Big Auto Show.
More Than 200 Models and 20
niffaranf Makes Shown.

The big automobile show in Baltimore
opened Tuesday night in the Fifth Regi-
ment Armory, this being the eleventh
and possibly the greatest show ever held
in that city.
! The big Armory has been beautifully
decorated with black and white, and yell
low and white bunting, more than 30. OOO
yards being used. Big yellow Japanese
lanterns add to the attractiveness of the
place.
There will be more than 200 models,
representing 70 different makes, each
car the latest product from the builders,
and everyone at it's very best. Fifty-two
automobile agencies are directly repre-
scented at the show, and many of these
have mechanical displays in addition to
the models, showing the 'innerds" of
the cars and just how the wheels 60
round and what makes them 60 round.
The moving" exhibits are run by spec
ial electric-driven motors, the show rules
prohibiting the bringing of gasoline to
the armory floor.
This show is attracting to Baltimore
thousands of people, Thurmont furnishing
her quota, and many of these probably
will make purchases. 1t is now known
that many new cars will find home in
Thurmont about April LIST. next.
To give an idea of the possible growth
of the automobile industry we quote the
following extract:
From some figures gathered by the
Automobile Chamber of Commerce re-
Gently made public we gain an idea of
the possibilities of growth in this indus
try. In the rural sections of the United
States there are approximately $500, 900
families. One million of these now own
motor cars. One and half millions are
families whose financial circumstances
prelude the possibility of their buying
automobiles. This leaves 4,00O,0 900 farm
families the heads of which are possible
automobile buyers.
"In towns and cities of more than 500
population there are about 5000, 900
home owners, of whom only 100000
now possess cars. Three million are
prospective buyers. This makes total
in urban and rural sections of 1000, 900
possible purchasers.
The average life of car in the hands
of the original owner is about five years.
The authorities say that man who once
owns car will never willingly remain
without one thereafter. The recorder
market in the year 1917 will therefore
comprise about 600, 900 purchasers, that
being 20 per cent, of the 8, 900, 900 people
who now own cars. The possible buyers
in 1917, then, will total 100000. AS
not more than 100000 cars will be
built during this year, there will be an
excess market of 5000, OOO possible buy
ers at the beginning of 1913"

In Darkness.

Monday night last the street lights evil
IDENTIFY went on strike, not one.of them
being on the job. The night was dark
no moon, and clouds obscuring the stars.
But the darkness apparently made little
difference to Mayor Martin. He was not
aware of the absence of the lights until
asked the reason why. The house sys-
tenn was all in good working order.
