The automobile booth, which occupy the entire eastern half of the building, will be uniform In design and there will be no railing or parti tions between exhibits. The decoration of the automobile section comprises some very appropriate panoramas, that, though serving as mural decorations, are In real ity topographical maps.

The Haynea trade name will ap pear on the bowl of each vase marking the Haynea exhibit" Auto Catalogues Are Interesting To American Boy "Every red-blooded American youth loves motor cars and studies them," says Mr. Clark of the Noyea Auto company Many can give their elders valuable points on both construction and operation. "Most of them know every car In the neighborhood, who made It and how well It runs. They read every automobile ad vertisement Theyaend for catalogues and never skip a page or specification They are veritable mines of pertinent In formation that 'dad' never had the leis ure or the opportunity to get. la It any wonder they are consulted when a new car Is the topic T "In the sale of an automobile there la, of course, no shadow of question regard ing the powerful bearing exercised by the buyer's wife, sister or 'Intended.' If the car does not appeal to her sense of beauty, comfort, convenience and refinement, the strong mechanical arguments that have won the 'mere male' will prove of little weight. "And the boy la an Influence which to my mind la a very close second to that of the woman. He makes or breaks thou sands of sales every year. "The automobile manufacturer for tunate enough to get the ear and the favor of a few thousand boys has ac quired an auxiliary sales force that he may well cultivate to say nothing of a goodly percentage who themselves will be buyers In the future. "Bo the boys 'can have our expensive catalogues and should have our time If there la anything they want to know about that'a what we try to Impress on very Klasvl-Kar dealer and salesman." JOINS FORCES WITH THE MITE-PHY-O BEIEN CO. t ( " I v ... J W.JT.SEJaLKJT Will N.

Mr. Hellen for a number of years haa been Identified with the largest auto mobile aales proposition handled out of Omaha, and for the last year haa trav eled throughout the middle west and outh for the Dart truck factory. Mr. Ilellcn's broad experience In the sale of car, hi record having reached the high point of 900 car In a single season, la a tribute to the value offered In the Paige and Dodge Bros, lines, when It Is remem bered that he leavea now a high grade position on the road In order to take up the sale of these two cars. sixty-five miles, and carries four passen gers. Ills Model T, purchased In 1901), la still In service, with tho same wheel, engine and transmission, and haa a grand milcnge of 160,000 miles. In addition to this. Mr. Dunbar has re peatedly made the round trip of 130 miles, sworn to In his affidavit, on three and one-half gallons of gasoline, or a mileage of thirty-seven and one-half mile pel1 gallon. It Isn't remarkable, I'erhaps, that Mr. Dunbar should Insist apon having these extraordinary figures preserved In affidavit form. Carloads of Reos , Shipped to Detroit , Every Day in Year "That old wheeze about carrying coals to Newcastle was all right In Its time," eaya R. C. flueschaw. "but when you ship automobiles to Detroit. I think It's going some. "The tremendous Inrush of order that began the mldde of February, and had developed Into a veritable tornado by March 1, I certainly most gratifying to us; but the one telegram which causes greater glee at the Reo factory than any other of the thousands with which the dialers have burned up the wires, waa that one from our Detroit dealer, auylng. 'Hiilp alx carloaila of Reoa per day every I day until otherwise Instructed.' "We have always been proud of the fact that Reo sella more cara In the state of Michigan than any other eon- i cern, with a single exception, and our tig business In Detroit haa always been a source of great satisfaction to us. "To ship eighteen Reos every day from i 1aninng into the, automobile center ef the I world, surely la an Indication of quality j In the product for Detroltrrs know an ' automobile as Kentuckians know a horse, and they certainly make a lot of mighty flue caj-e there themselves." Jitney Bus to Be Popular Carrier, Declares Willys "The tremendous political Influence ex erted by the electric street railway In terests may succeed for a short period In retarding the sudden and great de velopment of the 'Jitney bus,' but It will never be able to suppress that new and popular means of transportation," de clared John N. Willys, president of the Wlllys-Overland company. In the course of an Interview on the "Jitney" situation at his winter home In Pasadena. ri 8lnce arriving In California, Mr. Willys nas made a study of the "Jitney bus" In the cities where Its remarkable rise to popularity started. "The publlo In this eountrv Is lust awakening to the poaaiblUtiea and ad vantages of motor transoortatinn." mn. tinued Mr. Willys, as he scanned a re port from the Overland factory at Toledo advising him of a record-breaking pro- ductlon. "In London, the electrln tinea iin over there as trama, are owned and operated by the London Mimi wMm..it This body Is extremely Jealous of Its na nas orancned out Into numer ous paternalistic schemes. As soon as tne motor bus became a faotor la trans portation, nine or ten veara v h. council began exerting every effort within ita great power to suppress motor buses In the Interest of the huge Investments in wnicn ir.at body had Involved the tax payer In the construction of eleotrlo street railway. "The public, however, rallied to the de fense of the newer and more popular means of transportation, and today, not withstanding the fact that the council' pet street railways are facing certain bankruptcy as a result of motor com petition, the peope stand by the motor buses and refuse to see them unjustly deslt with." y- Electric Safety First Lighter in Detroiter Cars "While we expected that an electric cigar lighter would be appreciated by men motorist, we have been aurprlaed to discover that this feature of De troiter equipment has actually Influenced! quite a number of sales In our favor," ays Claude B. Brlggs, president of the Brlggs-Dctroiter company, Detroit. "Moat motorist have a wholesome re spect for the explosive properties of gaso line, and often go to extremes In avoiding risks. Men who like to enjoy a cigar as they drive their cars are confronted with the difficulty of keeping a cigar lit whllo keeping their minds strictly on the business of controlling the car. Any one who haa tried to light a match with a car traveling twenty-five miles an hour, need not be reminded of the diffi culties of the undertaking. "The first 1315 Detroiter were equipped with electric cigar lighters as an experi ment, and they made a great hit. The apparatus conslsU of a length of flexible steel tubing enclosing the two wires that terminate In a resistance coll, which be comes red-hot when a small button In the handle of the lighter is pressed. At tached to the back of the front seat, the lighter Is within convenient reach of all the occupants of the car, enabling the driver to 'light up' without resorting to the danger of llRhtlng a match, or stop ping the car entirely."
