WE HAVE JUST BEEN ADVISED that our H
new Reo the Fifth, "the Incomparable Pour,"
E9 demonstrator has arrived—by the time you read 131
this it will have been unloaded and will be at
JH our show rooms.
WE HAVE BEEN BESIEGED by scores of per- B
KJ sons eager to get a first look at this latest edition R
of the famous Reo the Fifth —"the Incompar- M
DO YOU KNOW that since November 10th,
there hasn't been a Reo car obtainable at the
factory—last of the 1914 series was shipped on
DID YOU SAY SOMETHING about "hard ■
times"? Reo has never known such a thing.
Reo value—Reo service—Reo cars —have
H always commanded a market greatly in excess
of the possible supply—always.
H THERE HAS NEVER BEEN A TIME when, |§
even with its wonderful factory facilities, <he
Eg Reo Motor Car Company has been able to fur
nish all the Rcos needed to fill the demand.
11| SO THE EAGERNESS of buyers to see this new
■B Reo is nothing unusual. K|l
AND THIS LATEST Reo the Fifth—this 1915
edition of that famous car that has set the |||
standard and maintained the lead in its price
class for several years—is destined to increase |B
p|| its popularity and its leadership.
NEVER WAS SUCH VALUE. You read, of ||
H course, in the big two-page ad how it was pos

LPT US REPEAT —a bigger, better car—up to ra,
the minute in every detail of design and finish H
and equipment, including the best one-man top sfl
made, and for less money. No other could do oS
it. None but Reo!
BUT YOU CAN'T appreciate fully what this ju||

be one of the first —you will see it almost as fta

like yourself, have been waiting to see it.

that, with no Reos obtainable during the past
two months and thousands having already
decided they will join the Reo contingent "and

SHOWS NEXT WEEK
Public Will Have Ample Oppor
tunity to Inspect the Latest
Models
One week from to-night two separate
automobile shows will bo staged, and
witii space in both shows reported sold
[by the respective managers, the mo
tor-loving public will have a greater
variety of models arranged for inspec
tion than ever before. Both commit
tees in charge of the arrungcnients at
the respective shows arc striving ener
getically to make their show more at
tractive than heretofore. Fortunately
the halls arc but one and one-half
squares apart, which makes it conve
nient for the public to visit tlrst one
show and then the other, as many will
do who are interested in the newest
in motor vehicles and the accessories.
The Harrisburg Automobile Dealers'
Association will have their exhibit at
the Arena Rex garage, the same as
before and have a Saxon roadster as
a door prize. The Capital City Motor
Dealers' Association will have their
display in Kelker street hall, where
the first show in Harrisburg was held
New models arc arriving daily and
some dealers are anxiously awaiting
the exhibit cars that are promised in
time for their shows.

Conti is the only murder case listed
for the March term of court, although

charge of manslaughter. There are
