This show is the best ever held in Oregon outside of Portland and would be a credit to that city, which is the western dis tributing point tor nearly all makes of cars, and certainly speaks well for our auto dealers. The show is being held on the floor where the indoor sports are conduct ed and that space being too small the overflow is placed in two of the halls. The entire display is nicely decorated and the dealers and their assistants are on hand to welcome the people, explain their cars, tires and aeessor- ies and give out booklets. Everybody tays tie Auto sbow is one of the features of the fair and it enables the people who have the bug, to see the different cars and compare them. These dealers and cars are repre sented A. W.

The llttlo flag buttons being sold by the Girts Honor Guard were all purchased the first day, showing that the people who attend the fair are patriotic.
