Chicago Auto show.
Chicago will stage its nineteenth

to the public. and from February 3
to there will be an exhibition OF
motor trucks. the first Chicago has
had in a number of years. For the
latter event the Coliseum alone will
be used.
In character of exhibits and in
general effect the Chicago Automobile
Show will take on all the pomp and
magnitude of its predecessors. 1t has
the endorsement Of the National Au-
tomobfle Chamber of Commerce and
the Motor and Accessory Manufactu-
rers' Association.
Thousands of visitors fro&h out of
the city are expected during the time
the passenger car and motor truck
shows are running. Especially true
will this be of farmers and stockmen
from the Corn Belt and the North
western section, who have prospered
during the war times and have
learned the value of automobiles and
motor trucks in their work.
Large volume of business is looked
for not only from the out-of-town
visitors, but also from persons who
have put OFF purchasing new cars un-
til the end of the war
Chicago hotels will be prepared to
handle a large number of guests, and
merchants and local associations will
aid in making the period one of in
terest and gaiety.
