While last years show was thought to be the
last word in atractiveness, yet the exhibit tomor

examined the beautiful and luxurious machines
offered last year will wonder how any improvement
could be made in the perfection Of those cars, or
how any additional touch of beauty could be
applied but just like the annual circus the public
rs that everything will be bigger and better,
excepting the prices which will only be better, and
not bigger
II Will be more difficult to sell cars this year
than last. The last years sales were surprising,
but considering things as they are now, it is
probable that people will visit the exhibition more
toSsee than to purchase. Just to examine
