boost for tho automobile show. When
the show waa officially opened at 2:30
this afternoon It was found that the

optimistic members of tho association
had hoped for and every dealer was
proudly displaying letters from other out-of-town
dealers stating that they would
be In Omaha as soon an possible. And the
