X THE SALT LAKE TRIBUNE, SUNDAY MORNING, MARCH 9, 1913. 1 H I. BEC1D fO SHOW CLOSES of Horns and Noisy well Usher Great Ex ibit Into History, a noise that' would rival a ar's celobration, the greatest lie show in tlio history of the ntain country last night camo e after six days of continuous The day was marked by the itendanco of the wcelc, and it ited that closo to 35,000 per menaded tho aisles of tlio bipr im in Kichards street during o'clock, last night. Manager tishel announced that the ex could "open up" and make a9 much noise as they wanted. Imme diately a small army of auto and mo torcycle horns broko looso and for a Bolid hour the air was rent in twain by the fusillade of noises that pro claimed victory for the undertaking, Ench exhibitor was determined to out do his neighbor in "making a noise" for his particular stock, and the largo structuro that housed tho show fairly vibrated with clamor. Sales Not Estimated. It is not known exactly how many sales resulted directly from tho show, as not all tho dealers wero willing to give out names or figures. So far as securing new prospects is concerned, tho results wore record-breaking. In fact, .overy ono who inspected tlio ex hibits of tho show might bo classed as a "prospective'' owner. In point of artistic docorations, tho show ontcountenanced anything of its kind held hero. In point of excellence the show ranked on an equality with tho best in tho country. As an educa tional factor and stimulus to the mo torcar industry, it was a huge success. Manager Risholj the mombcrs of the executive committoo and. the members of tho Auto club of Utah and tho Utah Trades association aro bulged up with pride. That the elaborate exhibition eont forth its striking appeal to thousands in this city and the intormountain country, has "been proved by tho at- i tendance, tho comments and the sales. Tho cars exhibited wero thoso that form tho bulk of motorcar business in tho in termountain country, and tho show it self demonstrated that tho motor-pro polled vehicle has become a leading factor in. businoss and industrial prog ress of the world. Every New Feature. There was nothing that goes to mako up tho excellent standard of perfec tion to which tho . youngest national industry has contributed that was not displayed at the show. Now devices for ease of control, comfort in riding, perfect operation, commodious equip ment and beautiful appearance wero all shown up to advantage in the vast array of graceful, attractive vehicles, polished and groomed for tho occasion. A notablo feature of the show was that nearly overy exhibit was installed in such a manner as to clearly show the most hidden parts and parcels, in which, so much of the real worth of the finished motor vehicle lies. It is certain that a now standard has been sot for auto Hhows in the in tormountain country. Motorcar cen ters throughout the country have been attracted to Salt Lake through tho show.

It often occurs that the simplest and least expensive preparations are tho most meritorious, and this simple little rocipo for darkening pray hair and cor recting the ills of the scalp will bo found to possess all the merits of tho most famous dyes, stainB and other hair nostrums. It is made by adding to 7 ozb. of water ono small box of Barbo Compound, 1 oz, of bay rum and 3i oz. of glycerine. Get the ingredients at any drug store at very little cost and pre pare the mixture at home. Apply to the hair or board once a week until the gray hair is darkened sufficiently, then once every two weeks will do. This is a remarkably good mixture for gradually changing the gray hair to a nice glossy brown, and is equally as good for re moving dandruff and other scalp humors and for promoting the growth of the hair. It does not mako the hair sticky, does not color the scalp or soil clothing or pillow Blips, like many made-up dyes and stains.

WOULD HAVE FRISCO AID HUD TRAIL Ellison Writes to California Giving Data and Argu ment on Subject. In an effort to have San Francisco co operate with Salt Lake City In securing the Midland trail as the route for the first transcontinental highway, "W, II. Ellison, president of the Salt Lake coun cil, Midland Trail association, has writ ten a letter to R. R. I'Hommedleu of the California city. Mr. rHommedleu is Interested In a movement to organize an association in San Francisco for the Mid land trail. Bosldes the plan under -which the local organization was formed. Mr. Ellison's Jetter contains the following: It has seemed to us from the be ginning of this movement that San Francisco ought to, get In and work with us, as, In our opinion, your city . should bo the logical Pacific coast termlnuB of a transcontinental high way. Salt Lake City is so .located that the road might' go direct to San Fran cisco, or Los Angeles from hero and eventually, no doubt, will lead to both cities from Salt Lake. You are, no doubt, aware that L03 Angeles Is making a very strong pull for the Santa Fe route and it cer tainly. HeemB to us that San Francisco should offset that pull In favor of the Midland route. San Francisco was originally se lected for the location of the Panama-Pacific exposition, and, should this road be completed in time, no doubt thousands of people would come to the exposition in automobiles. While I cannot speak for all tho people of Salt Lake City, I feel cer tain that a majority of them are of tho opinion that San Francisco, hav ing been selected for the exposition, should receive the support of the en tire country in assisting to make the exposition a success rather than to attempt to hold two expositions on tho Pacific coast at the same time. In view of this feeling, and the fact that Los Angeles Is working so hard for tho Santa Fe route, you can read ily sec why we think It Is the proper time for San Francisco to get in and work with us for the Mid land route. .1 .
