example, reports having sold twenty
five cars during the week now coming
TO an end. The Lambert Hudson Com
pany have sold eight Essex cars and
the Commercial Auto Company up to
yesterday had sold every car on
their floor save one. The total num-
ber of cars sold to date has not yet
been officially stated but 1t can safe
ly be said that all concerns will rem
der very satisfactory reports as to
the success OF the week from their
standpoint.
1t is rumored that in the course OF
few days the motor truck dealers
of Washington will hold a truck
show on the same principle that the
Buy a Car" show was conducted on
and there is no denying the fact that
II would be a proposition well worth
carrying out due to the ever increas-
ing demands for the instrument which
is destined 10 play an imperative
part in the transportation problem
now confronting this country.
To Discuss Plnns.
Plans pertaining to this question
will be discussed at the next meet
ing OF the Washington Automobile As
sociation which meets every Monday
night at their club room in Cook and
Stoddard's, on Connecticut avenue.
Those who have attended the local
exhibits and have seen all the models
on display, but who have as yet not
purchased their car should avail
themselves of the opportunity now
present to do so in and get the car
of their choice before all are dispos-
ed OF and which will necessitate not
only in them being forced to wait
sometime for delivery but again in
possibly being forced to pay an
advanced price.
Remember that "procrastination Is
the thief of time" so don't put on
another moment, but go tonight be-
fore the show terminates and secure
immediate delivery OF the car of your
ideals and desires. Buy a car to-
night.
