11-15 inclusive, and the auction sale of spaces is scheduled for Jan. For a time it looked as though show in 1913 was not to become a a reality, but the parties most concerned in its heing the Automobile Dealers' Association, succeeding in securing the consent of General C. H. Hitchcock for the use of the armory much earlier than was expected. dates which meet the approval of practically every auto dealer in the city.

The coming show promises to eclipse all previous auto shows held in this city. When the 1911 show was well under way during the latter part of February of last year visitors to the armory were loud in their praise of Binghamton's splendid event, and the dealers seemed unanimous in saying that the next show would have to "go some" to beat its predecessor. From now out until the opening day on Feb. 11 the dealers are going to boost this event in every way possible, and there is every indication of success of the enterprise, because the best of feeling, prevails in automobile circles satisfactory dates which General Hitchcock was kind de enough to grant the dealers for the event. Auction Spaces Jan.

2. A special meeting of the association members held this morning decision reached to hold the brought outs a full attendance and a auction sale of spaces on Jan. 2 at a place to be announced later. There are these spaces the main drill hall floor and about ens locations to be disposed of on the sub-floor. Practically every dealer in the city is eager to obtain the desirable locations, which, of course, will be on the main flood.

Spirited bidding is looked for when the sale starts. All will have an equal chance to contract for any space on the floor, the high bidder securing the choice locations. There are numerous decorating firms ready to present to the show and Lewis, elaborate plans beauticommittee, Messrs. Whipple, leo. Davidge fying the armory, interior.

Last year Trahan Company of Cohoes secured the contract for the decorations, which were among the best seen at any auto show in the State during the season. Gilmore's Band Again. No definite arrangements have been made for music, but negotiations under way to secure Gilmore's Twenty-Second Regiment Band for show. Lawrence M. Matt is the leader of this band.

Visitors to the 1911 show will remember Mr. Matt as the direcof the band that made such a "hit" during the event. The band under his leadership at the present time is superior to the organization he directed here last year, and if the dealers decide in favor of the Twenty-second Regiment Band there is every reason to expect that excellent programs of music will be rendered during the five days engagement in this city. The coming show will be staged for Binghamton dealers exclusively. No.

outside concern handling automobiles will be accommodated with space. The show committee is unanimous in saying that they want the event to be strictly a Binghamton show. There are no less than 26 dealers in automobiles and accessories in this when all of these dealers are accommodated with the spaces they desire, the room left unsold, if there is any will be allotter to local concerns handing articles which motorists find uses for. 100 CARS STOLEN EACH DAY IN YEAR Hudson Cars, 1913 Model, Have Contrivance Which Makes Getaway Hard Police officials estimate that over 100 automobiles are stolen every day in the United States. In Detroit alone--the center of the automobile industry--thefts of two cars day during the height of Summer were recorded police blotters.

C. E. Sweet, the dealer in Hudson cars, described a unique plan today for which motorists of his acquaintance guard against the auto thief. The idea is to lock the car's gears and then bring the brake tight up against the burglarproof lock supplied in addition to an interlocking device with 1913 Hudson cars. A projection upon the gear shift lever of the Hudson has a hole in it which, when the gears are disengaged.

is exactly opposite another similar projection on the gear shift box. The arm of the heavy lock inserted in both holes and locked. With the emergency brake brought up tight against the lock, it is impossible for the auto thief, matter how deft, to steal the car without a derrick. Even though the thief had come into possession of the owner's individual switch key, which it is necessary to use in connection with the ignition, he could not operate the car, for he could not get the gear out of neutral and into any of the various speeds. There are also keys for tire irons and tool box.

Pays Millions for Highways in Foreign Possessions, but Nothing at Home That the movement for Federal particpiation in highways construction not confined to motorists, but is also being agitated by the farmers, is one of the most hopeful indications of its ultimate success. On this point the recent convention of the National Grange, Patrons of Husbandry, the oldest and most influential of the farmers' organizations, took a decidedly favorable, stand.

Oliver Wilson, master National Grange, in his annual address pod stated: "The Grange advocates Federal aid for road improvement. There can be no good reason given why the Government should not appropriate money for the maintaining and the improving of the public highway, the same as for our public waterways. Seventy-five per cent. of the product of our country must pass over public highway before it can be transported over our railway or water systems. While the Government has spent millions of dollars for highway improvement in our foreign possessions, it has never appropriated one dollar to be used on the highway in continental United States.

"The Grange membership is unanimously in favor of Congress making suitable appropriations for highway construction and maintenance. This appropriation should be expended by National Highway Commission or Board, working in conjunction similiar commissions from the States. This enthusiastic and renewed expression from the organized farmers, means much to the American Automobile Association, which is rapidly getting plans matured for the Second Federal Aid Good Roads convention at Washington, D. called for March 6 and 7, 1913. The A.

A. A. is receiving assurances of most enthusiastic co-operation from the principal commercial organizations of the United States and from good roads' organizations. LONG EDDY MAN FINDS BRIDE IN BINGHAMTON Rev. T.

Tomorrow Enjoy Freedom from RHEUMATISM Sciatica and Neuritis The prodding pains of a sheumatism, sciatica and neuritis cannot long stand before the proof we furnish of the work being done through the country by "Nurito," the prescription in powder form which is a positive antidote for uric acid poison. It is a physician's prescription, pharmaceutically compounded, wit out a trace of opiate, narcotic or any harmf 1 drug.

Reputable physicians all over the country are prescribing long needed remedy and the news of their success is traveling.

It is pure negligence, entailing a continuance of your suffering, not to try it. Particularly those who may think their cases are of long standing and cannot be cured are invited to try "Nurito," with our assurance that, the ask you ingredients as friends are to absolutely believe this harmless.
