Salisbury Auto Show
March 18th to 22nd

Four weeks ago, when the automo-
bile dealers committee met the Vol
unteer Firemen, arrangements were
made to hold the first Automobile
Show on the Eastern Shore in the
First Regiment Armory, in Sails
bury, opening at p. m. on Wednes-
day, March 10th, amt closing at
1890 p. m. on Saturday, March %.
The committee has planned for four
big nights and three great days OF
the show.
There will be nothing lacking to
make this one of the most attractive
shows ever held outside of Baltimore
city within this State. 1t being the
first autom obile show ever held on
the Peninsula, there was naturally
much new thought and energy neces-
sary to get the plans into proper
shape, but those who have charge Of
the show have had so much expert
ence with other automobile shows in
Baltimore. Philadelphia and New
York, that they were thoroughly
equipped to handle this big project
in first-cIass manner.
It is the intention of the promot-
ers to have nothing lacking in this
exhibition to make it the last word
in automobile paralance. Each deal
er will try to Guido the other, not in
the elaborateness of booth decora-
ton, but in the seductiveness of his
show models.
There will be the lordly limousine,
commodious, comfortable enough for
a journey of one or thousand miles,
with more conveniences than an up
to-date fiat; sumptuous sedans, in
silver-plated mo dntings and plush up
holstery; cunning little coupes, de-
signed especially for milady, uphol-
stored in tasteful tapestry of Poverty
design, with vanity cases, mirrors,
electric heaters, humidore and smok-
ing outfit for use when hubby
rides; rakish roadsters that can trav-
ell at speed that is safer merely to
talk about; town cars, touristers,
sedanettes, something entirely new
this year; ''chummy" roadsters,
sport models. and, of course, the
family" touring car.
From the number of inquiries
which the committee is receiving
from every important town from Do
yer to Cape Charles, and from Berlin
to Claiborne, there seems to be no
doubt that the whole Peninsula is
thoroughly interested in the outcome
of this show. Several thousand peo-

REDUCED POSTAGE RATES
60 IN EFFECT JULY fSf
Three Cent Letter Postage Will Be
Reduced to The Former Two Cent

Three Cent Letter Postage Will Be
Reduced to The Former Two Cent
Rate.
Information from Postmaster
White is to the effect that on and af-
ter July 1st of this year, the war
time postage rates will be rescinded
and the rates prevailing before the
war will again rule. Tha. is, first
class letter postage will go back to
two cents instead of the present rate
of three cents and the old rate of
one cent will be established for post
cards and drop letters coming under
that class. This will be welcome
news to thousands of people who
have business with the postoffice and
who have had to contribute revenue
to the Government during the war
because of the advance made in the
postal rates.
1t has been limited that if the pos
tai business in the United States con-
tinues on the same basis as it has
been for sometime past, that Con-
gress may make a further reduction
in postal rates for 1920. placing the
first class letter postage to one cent

would otherwise have gone to Baltl-

that Salisbury was to have the first
big automobile show ever held on the
Peninsula, and are making their ar
rangements to so there. inquiries
have been received as to hotel &C
Communications and whether or not we
will be able to feed the big crowd
which expects to come here every
GGr. The committee feels assured
thai All these accommodations will
be ample, as it is expected that be-
cause or the good roads hundreds Oh
people Will come daily i'll their own
is over iii the evening. For The ac-
commodation OF those who expect to
come and stay the full time OF the
show, the com .littee will take some
action in getting the list of boarding
houses and places where they may
be accomm odated when the hotels
are full, and nothing will be left I'M
done by the local committee to take
care of every detail which will make
this automobile show class up with
those which have been shown in
much larger cities than Salisbury.
There are two purposes of the
show being held in Salisbury; first,
it will give the people of the Eastern
Shore the opportunity to see many
new cars which they would not 9TH
erwise see without visiting some of
our Metropolitan cities. Second, the
Volunteer Firemen of Maryland will
meet in a Convention in Salisbury in
June, and Salisbury expects to enter
tain this worthy body of f1re-fighters
as we'll or better than they have ever
been entertained away from their
home town. Every penny of the
profits from the show will be donated
to the Convention Fund, and it is
hoped that everyone interested in
our States Volunteer Firemen will
attend this show.

instead of two cents as will prevail
after July 1st, and corresponding
reduction in the charges on other
matter. There is no doubt if the av-
lsFage -bbstssssifes eiittF--which pre-
walls in large department stores and
other large corporations prevails in
the post office department as a whole,
the letter postage could be reduced
easily to one cent and then leave
plenty of margin for the Govern
ment. However, we must acknow-
ledge that the service offered by the
Government Postoffices in these days
is so far superior to that Of many
years ago as to make the public fair
ly well satisfied with the rates now
charged.
