AUTOMOBILE HEN
TO MEET TONIGHT
Plans for Big Auto Show to
be Discussed; Prospect
Looms Bright
I The members of th:? Albany Auto-
mobile Dealers Association) will bold
meeting this evening to discuss de-
I ta,ls of the blK uto show which wil
be held in the armory February 13 and
14.
The members of the association are
keenly alive to the demands of the
time and are planning on making this
the biggest year in the history of the
automobile business. Consequently,
! the best that can be produced in the
show line will be 8 taped for the bene
fit of the people of this vicinity.
The big armory, will be crowded to
the limit and there will be a lack of
! space for all who want to exhibit, a
report says, it is possible that there
will be a separate exhibit for trucks,
tractors and accessories.
, . The automobile show has the same
hold on the public now that the hone
show used to have in former days,
and there is a universal demand to
view the newest in the automotive in
dustry. And Albany people will get
this look.
