    AUTO SHOW COMES
TO CLOffiTOWGHT
Auto Men Plan for Final Spurt
of Speed in Home Stretch
Today.
SCIONS LOOK OVER CASS
With every previous record already
shattered beyond recognition, the
twelfth annual automobile exposition
speeds into the home stretch today
for the final dash tp the wire. At 10:30
tonight Omaha's iggest, greatest and
most successful automobile how will
become a matter If history.
When the great display closes to
night not a record will stand, for that
matter they have all been broken al
ready. Attendance the first five days
of the show was more than twice as
reat as the total attendance for the
entire six days of the show last year.
And the number of sales made has
already doubled the mark set up in
1916. Today's attendance and sales
will merely increase the gains.
Despite the fact that it seems as
though every man, woman and child
in Omaha has already attended the
show some time or other, the auto
men are looking forward to one of
the biggest days of the week. Many
persons,, who gave the exhibition the
visual forward and back earlier in the
week, will return today or tonight
with their minds made up on the car
they will buy, the dealers and sales
men reason, and that is why, even
though they admit their energy is fast
falling away owing to the high pres
sure all week, every agent and sales
man plans to be on the job bright and
early this morning and stick until the
bell rings down the curtain.
Gardner to Sing.
An added attraction is scheduled for
tonight. Charles Velie Gardner has
consented to sing. Charles s Velie
Gardner is the Caruso or is it the
De Reszka of the automobile men.
Charlie is one of the official warblera
at the Ak-Sar-Ben Den. He is also
some warbler when it comes to sing
ing the praises of the Velie. So Char
lie was prevailed upon to perform
tonight, it being the last night of the
show and therefore little danger, of
an uprising.
When it became known that Gard
ner was going to aid George Green
in providing melody for the evening,
Everitt Buckingham and Manager
Powell of the show got together
and proclaimed tonight Ak-Sar-Ben
night.
BuckinKham has issued a call for
, "all true knighta of King Ak to be on
hand to give the display the once
over and to hear Charlie warble. The
board of governors will all be there
and they expect to see every loya
subject on hand, too. 1
This afternoon Dale Marshall, who
is in Omaha with "The Witching
Hour" picture at the Muse, will ting
a solo. Mr. Marshall was formerly
a soloist with Sousa't band. i
Headed by Governor Neville, mem
bers of the Nebraska legislature were
fuests at the auto show last night,
he solona called off their labor for
the week yesterday morning and
caught a fast train to Omaha. They
visited the stock yards, then had din
ner at . the Commercial club and
wound up the day by attending: the
motor display as guests of the Omaha
nmumuuue iraue association.
News Print Jobbers
" Aspect to Sign Contracts
Washington, March 2. News print
paper jobbera of the country were

mission today if they would reduce
prices of newa print to newspapers
providing they benefited In the price
luting plan ot tne federal trade com'
mission.
The commission wants assurance
that jobbers, buying at a low price
from manufacturers, wilt not hold

high price. Already manufacturers
and oubliahers have agreed to a orice
arbitration by the commission and if
jobbers consent, the committee, it is
believed, will go ahead immediately
with its plan. The jobbers were asked
to sign agreements prepared by the
commission, some, it was indicated,
were willing to approve the plan.
Other have not made up their minds.

Expect Pathfinder
To Be Sensation ol
The Coming Season
On of the models attracting a
great deal of attention tt the auto
mobile show is the new Pathfinder in
the Toozer-Gerpacher booth.
This Pathfinder is one of the most
distinctive cars at the exposition and
contains one feature that is exclu
sively Pathfinder. It is the concealed
top and extra wneei icaiure.
The tail of this Pathfinder has been
so constructed that the top when low
ered folds right into the tail. In ad
dition the extra wheels are placed into
this box-like tail. So when the top
is down it is completely hidden from
view and the extra wheels are always
hidden, with the result that this model
is one of the snappiest at the show.
The long tail also adds tc the racy
effect of the machine. The long hood
with its pointed radiator nose adds
much to the appearanc of the ma
chine, too.
This Pathfinder model is the latest
product of the factory and it was nec
essary to snip tne one m uispiay to
Omaha by express in order to get it
here in time ior the show. Even the
New York and Chicago shows did not
see this model. It is not merely a
show car, but is a new design that the
Pathfinder people are making this
year. It contains a twelve-cylinder
engine of the latest type and can be
throttled down to almost nothing and
accelerated up to over sixty miles an
hour without any trouble.
From the enthusiasm it has created
during the few days of the show, this
Pathfinder promises to be one of the
sensations of the approaching season.

H EFFICIENCY TEST
Complete Vaporization of Gas
oline, Boon to Motorist, Is
Now a Reality.
MANY ORDERS PLACED
Complete vaporization of gasoline,
which enables the motor car owner
to get the greatest number of miles
to the gallon, is now a reality. The
Wilmo Manifold, a one-piece casting
forming a combination exhaust and
intake manifold with a thin dividing
wall between, showed increased ef
ficiency of 71 per cent in a test run
at the Boulevard entrance to Miller
Park late yesterday afternoon.
The test was made with a Ford
roadster. A. R. Kroch, vice president
of the Whittier company, manufac
turer of the Wilmo Manifold; R. B.
Morris of the Omaha Rubber com
pany; R. H. Findlay, construction en
gineer for the street railway; Herman
Beall, assistant city engineer; Joe
Woodlock, engineer; representatives
of three Omaha newspapers and a
score of others witnessed the test and
pronounced the results absolutely au
thentic. Mr. Findlay and Mr. Beall
rode in the car in both test runs.
Many Miles on Gallon.
The first run was made with a Ford
roadster on a half gallon of gasoline
and no changes in standard construc
tion. The result was 6.6 miles. The
Manifold attachment yielded 11.3
miles to the half gallon, an increase
of 71 per cent in efficiency.
The success of the Manifold In
Omaha is evident from the City Gas
company's order for twenty-five, one
for every car in the department The
Omaha Rubber company is the first
jobber to handle the attachment in
this city.

Why eat Potatoes? "At eight
cents a Dound the potato is
a needless luxury,'' says the
New York Board of Heaitn.
The potato is seventy-five
Der cent water and the rest
is mostly starch. It is a good
food when eaten in combina
tion with proteid foods
but not worth eight cents a
pound. Cut out meat, eggs
and high-priced vegetables
and stick to cereals and
fruits. Two Shredded Wheat
Biscuits (cost two cents)
with milk make a complete
meal, supplying all the nu
triment needed for a half
dav's work. For breakfast
with hot milk; for dinner
with sliced bananas or
stewed prunes. Made at

When Itching Stop
There is one safe, dependable treat
ment that relieves itching torture and
skin irritation almost instantly and that
cleanses and soothes the skin.
Ask any druggist for a 25c or $1 bottle
of xemo and apply it as directed. Soon
you will rind that irritations, pimples,
black heads, eczema, blotches, ringworm
and similar skin troubles will disappear.
A little zemo, the penetrating, satis
fying liquid, is all that is needed, for it
banishes all skin eruptions and makes
the skin soft, smooth and healthy.
