The seasonal thrill that hundreds of Waterburians look forward to with increasing enthusiasm and anticipations has arrived-the 1941 automobile show!
 The city,s leading salesroonis have become miniature Central Palaces, and the same attractive models that highlight New York's widely ac- claimed exposition will be found here in Waterbury and at the agency for MT. and Mrs. Water bury's favorite make or type of car.
 It is difficult to write of an auto show without resorting to the use of superlatives, but may it be said briefly and as sincerely as possible. that wherever and when ever the ingenuity of American master craftsmen is concerned the world takes it for granted now that the words, bigger, better, more attrac- tive, more interesting or more eco- nornical are after all but modest tributes to their production.
 All the makes and models are now on display. Visit all the salesrooms. Question the salesmen. Ride in the car of your choice for demonstra- tion and then answer the question as to whether or not passing years make the display of new models more interesting and more inspir- ing than ever.
 City Fortunate
 Waterbury is fortunate to have alert and progressive auto salesmen among its leading businessmen. And they have this year made a special effort to prepare fitting backgrounds for the reception and coronation of King Auto. Whether you own or simply admire a car be sure and see the 1941 models. They represent supreme achievement in American inventive genius. Unsuspected new features make close inspections educational. And the thrill of thrills comes to the man with mod est means, whose is set on get ting a car of his choice.
 Advances made and incorporated in the 1941 models for the most part are not mere trifing innovations nor minor improvements. Indeed, in number of cases they are what may be termed "senSational" l"-com- plete new designs or something radically better than heretofore offered. Magnificence beyond the fondest dreams of Oriental poten- tates greater comfort and east of operation, fuel economy coupled with increased engine power, will cause many to marvel and wonder how such things are possible. And these are to be found in the low-priced lines as well as the more expen- sive. It is obvious that more auto mobile value for the dollar is given than ever before.
 Color Combinations
 Gay color combinations in bodies are offered. A year ago manufactur- CTS paid some attention to color, but in 194l, they will use 1t on a much more lavish scale. This applies to both the interior and the exter- for of the new models. Each is to be seen in two-tone effects, whereas lOI SCtCId dI yCdAo RhSb AAC0Ay cAA of the cars have been offered with single tone exteriors as well as a monotone inside trim. The new vogue calls for the main body in one color, and the super structure above the belt line in another shade of the same color or a harmonizing one. Similarly, interiors are not of uniform color throughout, but more often show harmonizing tintS of fa- brics in different areas or on diff ferent levels. This should meet with the unbounded approval of women motorists. Never before has so much been achieved in styling which is what feminine buyers have been demanding in recent years.
 Body lines are ever cleaner than heretofore and inyove fewer breaks in contours. New models favor clean sweep from front to rear in true streamline fashion. Speed lines" are finding wider use to give the impression of greater fieetness, and a good many of the new offerings have bodies which are actually longer and more roomy. This. of course, means greater comfort. Some are lower than formerly but.
