The 3916 models in the more expensive cars, representing the very last word in motor luxury and completeness, will be shown in prolusion, it is an nounced, and when the show opens next Monday every available inch of space in the huge armory will bo taken. Efforts are being made, it is said, to secure permission to place accessory exhibits in the lobby of the armory, as the demand for space- is so insistent and all tho regular space available for exhibits was assigned more than four weeks before tho date fixed for the opening of the show. The decorations of the armory will be unusually artistic and elaborate, it is declared, as Hundreds or pink roses. greenery of all kinds and garlands of hooded white light will be used. An informal ball will be given on Friday night, February 25, and a Washing ton birthday celebration, to take place on the evening of the 221.
