DEALERS IN AUTOS
GETTING READY FOR
BUSY SEASON AHEAD
1922 SHOW EXPECTED TO BRING
INTO THE "OPEN" MANY PROS
PECTS WHO HAVE DECIDED ON
STYLE OF CAR THEY WANT.
AVith almost a month's Interim be
tween the sizeable exposition in Chi
cago to the big auto nhow to be hold
In Ottawa Feb. IM6 motorists on t!i
market tor the first time and those (
tho so-called "replacement type" will
have plenty of opportunity to decid"
what car they will drive this spring
and next summer.
IWTien they go to the local show
to pick out the model they will have
made up their minds and announce
their decision to the dealer who may
consider himself fortunate in receiv
ings the order on such short notice
with comparatively no selling argu
merit.
Scores of prospects, according to
dealers of the city, are biding the
time when the Ottawa show gt U
under way before "coming out into
the open" and declaring themselves
candidates for a new car. For thiJ
reason the exposition is expected to
give large financial returns to the cx
hibitors, who, regardless of buslnesi
depression hitting all other industries,
find themselves faced by a busy sesY
son with little or no effect of the In
dustrial slow-down effecting the trade.
Surpass Previous Show.
The 1922 show will surpass, both In
the number of exhibits and th.6 dis
play of accessories, the first ventur-'
o' ibi-- sort sponsored by Ottawa deal
en. The Initial 6how atracted hun
. itteds into the armory, where the F b,
' 8828 exhibits will be held, with the
re -ult that many cars which other
, wise would not have been disposed of
vnre sold to prospects that had been
considered no better than "lukewarm"
i lire the lure of new and handsome
models made them take a decisive
stand in favor of a new car.
This year is expected to have even
a greater "psychological effect" on
the patrons of the show. Many who
held off buying in 1921 and 1920 be
cause of the then prevailing high
prices are faced by the situation of
Junking the old buss and getting a
new. stylish car or else do Without
one all together. Who among motor
ists can do without one, after being
thoroughly initiated Into the game''
In the vernacular of the .street urchin,
"it can't be done."
Replacements in Lead.
Replacements, or thve who are get
ting rid of the old car for a new. ;:i i
expected to be the big thing at t'i
coming show, whilst there will always
be the general run of new buyers
who are on the marktt for the Drsl
time.
The Free Trader-Jo irnal would ad
vise its readers to wait for the Feb.
23-25 exposition before making a final
choice of cars, or if they have made
their final choice to buy In Ottawa.
This insures that local dealers will
get the sale and at lest some of the
money spent for new cars remains a'
home.

WORST SESSION OF
YEAR ON BATTERIES
These are the mornings when til I
average motorist grres hi vocabulary
cf profanity a thorough tO'out.
Cool mornings when the thermom
eter is hovering a few degrees above
the freezing mark, cause air sbou'
the family garage to become pos
sessed of an azure hue.
Mr. Motorist steps on his starter
pedal and the motor turns over a few j
times, but so far as starting is con-1
cerned there's nothing doing.
But "there's a reason."
The Willard Storage Battery corn
any of Cleveland say this is the
worst season of the year on a battery.
This is the season when the motorist
is suffering from a congested car
buretor. Il has not adjusted this
most important part of the car to
winter conditions. The mixture of
?as with which he tries to start tli
engine is the same as that which wis
used all summer. It's too lean and
will not ignite. The longer the driv -n
holds down the starting pedal the
more current he is using from the bat
tery, and after a morning or two of
such doings the battery will need re
charging.
It's far better to adjust a carburetor
ind save the battery and it's cbeapar
In the long run.
