II. C J'eterson says noine idea of
the sir.e of the big automobile
nhovvXU, be held in I'ortland the
entire week of February 2U to 2H
may be gained from the fact that
the Ice i'alaee, where the motor
ear part of the show will be held,
is the largest show room on a sin
gle floor in the United Stales. Its
Sti0xl30 feet, without a aingle
post to obstruct the view, give
more space than is available for
cars even on the main floor of the
huge Coliseum Uuihling, in Chi
cago, winch is .'100x120 feet in
size.
Hut large as it is, the lee I'alaee
can accommodate only the pas
ticnger ear section of the I'ortland
Show. A year ago, both passen
ger ears and trucks were hhown
on Ihe same Hour. This year
there are so many passenger ear
exhibits, and so many .special
models, that the lee I'alaee will
be devoted exclusively to passen
ger ears, wlnle trucks will be ex
hibited in a separate truck show
in the Portland Armory, a few
blocks away.
The pussenger car show in the
Ice I'alaee will be by long odds
the most complete ever held in
the I'acilic Northwest, and the
truck show will be Ihe first exclu
sively truck event on the I'acilic
Coast. Iloth will be under man
agement of the general show coin
mittee, anil one ticket will admit
visitors to both shows without ad
ditional cost.
In the passenger ear show- there
will be a total of till different
makes of cars, to say uothiuir of
the fact that at least 17ti different
models will be show n. The Port
land show will contain almost as
many different makes of cars as
were exhibited at the recent New
York show, the big event of the
year in motordoni.
Kighty different makes of cars
were shown thrre, as compared
to till at the coining Portland
show.
There will also be 50 different
makes ot trucks, ami approxi
mately 100 different models on
exhibition in the truck show.
1 he paved road makes it .pos
sible for many from this county
to attend this big exhibit.

TION DAY PUBLICITY
One of the most remarkable re
cent movements to attain nation
al prominence is the one that has
for its objet't the pointing out of
method by which motorists may
obtain increased mileage from
their tires.
One would imagine that tire
denier would be pleased to have
tires wear out quickly, so thai
new purchases would be neees
arv. Rut this is not generally
true. There is more rejoicing to
dav over one ear owner whose
tire run 10,000 to 15.000 miles
than over a hundred whose lac
of care prevents them from get
tinir many miles thev are entitle!
to.
This national tire conservation
movement will read Ilillsboro on
Saturday, February 14th, when
Tire Conservation Day will be oh
served. Carrying out the idea of
helping all local motorist to se
cure more serviee troni their tires
F. E. Ilartrampf and M. P. Cady
of Ilillsboro, have arranged to
have an expert from The Good
year Tire & Rubber Company
present at the demolish utions
who will give an entire day ove
to the consideration of the tire
problems of all local motorist
pointing out the most insigniti
cant repairs which, if made
time, wi II add nnnie asurahly to
tire mileage. The tire dillicullie
of ench motorist will be given in
dividual attention, these dem
onstration will be held at M. P.
Cady's Garage.
Sections of tires will be exhib
ited, showing the different kinds1
of wear that tires are subject to.
and the method of combating
them. Tire Construction will be
followed from the crude rubber
of the forest to the finished tire,
readv to start on its career of ser
vice.
There is nothing mysterious
about tires, and therefor-, no
pood reason whv motorists should
