NEW HOUSES IN «Che Casper Su VOL. 35 News Ot Casper Deaters Theaters---Advance Notes On Amusement Offerings For Coming | {HE AUTOMOTIVE MELTING PT’ CASPER DEAL. INACCESSORIES Expanding Trade Shown by Increase in Local Firms. By SPARK PLUG. There seems to be a run on the automotive accessory business in Casper. We trust that the local population will purchase enough in parts and accessories during the next year to support them all. One month ago at: the close of the sum- mér and tourlst season, Casper poasted two auto accessory houses, and she now has four. All of them are bunched. in the semi-business section. f ‘Time was, when a city of Casper's size might, support any number of ‘automobile parts establishments and allow allot them to make a fortune. But times .bave changed. Compe- tition among manufacturers has caused otor cars to appear from the factory equipped with dozens of extra parts, to rake motoring easier afd more convenient. The nian who buys a new car no longer needs. to take his maching from the salesroom “of an agency and park it"in-front of an accessory, store for two hours to place it. in condition to drive. . It is delivered to him, equipped with sriilas: stich RS _wigw mirror, motometer, 5 Tar mae spare fire, and a dozen other parts of equal impor- tance to finished motoring. lL thlasmpakes it tough on a bust: ness ,esta! attempting” to ‘eel! these thin hope each ef the. local supply houses selling goods at retail will obtain its ghare of business, The “Givo soniething for, the car for Christ- mas” movement. about to be in- aAugurated by the wholesale automo- bile: accessory houses of this city shotid ald materially in giving the new houses.a flying start. ‘The four retail accessory houses which operate exclusively on that basjs in. Casper are the Brodie Rub- ber} company, the Western Auto Supply company, the Dean Auto Supply company, and the Villnave Auto Supply. All are conveniently located and each is deserving of the business of the great body of motorists. 1n Casper. LET US CLEAN MOTOR AND WASH YOUR CAR Expert Help and Pricéd Right Auto Laundry 112 §.
