The exhibit will differ from former ones in that many' makers are holding back their new models so that they may show them first at the show. In former years it was the custom of the manufactur- ers to bring out their new models in. the summer and fall, and exhibit them at the show in mid-winter. As a re- sult, show visitors did not see any- thing at the exhibits that they had not already seen on the streets. This year will be an innovation in this respect. Surprises Promised Mr. George Franklin, vice-president of the association, promises a number of surprises in the coming show. "Most of the dealers have held back their latest models this year, and from what I have seen and heard I can safely promise some pleasing surprises. The exhibit will reveal some developments In the matter of automobile painting that will prove a revelation. It is. hard to believe that any more pro- gress could be made in this direction, but it is a fact. Parts and Accessories Present "Another phase of the exhibit will be the showing of parts and accessor- ies. Practically all of the accessory makers have reserved space. The de- mand for fuel economy has been re- sponsible for a great deal of progress in the manufacture of carburetors, thermostats, and other fuel-saving and handling devices." Washington, Jan. 8.-United States treasury officials are seeking to dis- courage the pra'ctice followed by many merchants throughout the country of offering to accept Liberty bonds of the first and second issues at par, and in some cases at a premium, in exchange for merchandise. They hold that such More than 250 cadets in the it. Q. T.

Bonds Are for People "While I have no doubt that mer- chants are actuated by patriotio mo- tives," said Secretary of the Treasury McAdoo, in a statement given out through the federal reserve banks, "I am sure that they have failed to con- sider the effect whi~ch the acceptance of their offers have upon the situa- tion. We are making the strongest ef- fort to bave these government bonds purchased for permanent investment by the people at large, to be paid for out of the past and future savings of those who buy them. Object Defeated by Exchange "When the bonds are exchanged for merchandise, the primary objict of their sale is defeated, discouraging thrift and increasing expenditure. In addition to this, such bonds, when tak- en in exchange for merchandise, must in most cases be immediately-sold in open market. This naturally tends to depress the nmarket price of the issue and makes it less easy to sell future issues at the same rates." Merchants Seem Willing Secretary McAdoo believes that the merchants of the country, upon a nor) careful consideration of the subject, will discontinue their efforts to sell merchandise by taking Liberty bonds in payment for it. It is understood that many of the merchants in Chicago and other prin- cipal cities in the central West have expressed a desire to follow the gov:- ernment's suggestions in the matter, and there is little doubt that the prac- tice of such exchange will be discon- inued all over the country.

Maior Ian Hay Beith, author of "TheyFirst Hundred Thousand" and widely known in the United States as one of the most interesting war lec- turers of the times is back again in this country after an absence of sev- eral months. He will present his new lecture, "Carrying On," a recital of the progress of the Great War by both land and sea, at Hill Auditorium on Monday, Jan. 21, under the auspices of the Association of Collegiate Alum- nae. The proceeds of this lecture will be used for the boys in France. Major Beith, who until recently was Captain Beith, having been advanced to the rank of major this Autumn, wears a little knot of purple and white ribbon which indicates that he has been awarded 'the Military Cross for bravery in action. Since his return to the other side, after a prolonged coast to coast tour of the United States in the Spring and early Summer, he has' made three trips to France, coming in close con- tact with the American troops. He has investigated many phases of life at the front as it has developed and par- ticularly in its bearing upon the in- terest of Americans. He has spent considerable time with the British fleet and the American ships at sea and through the courtesy and co- operation of the British foreign office has obtained many new and interest- ing pictures to illustrate his lectures. Those who have heard Major Beith and are familiar with -his humor, his wealth of anecdote and the emphasis he lays upon the human- side of the great conflict will not be willing to miss an opportunity to hear him WH ITN EY THURS JAN, 10 t 50 TO 1.50 MAIL ORDER P RICES SEAT SAL TUES.
