It is not appearance, speed, hill-climbing or accele- ration, though the Super-Six leads in all these. Look at the records. Hudson holds all that are worth while. What car offers more proof? But speed records are not nearly as important as are those which prove endurance. Many tests are required to be considered final proof. Look at these. A Hudson stock chassis was driven 1819 miles in 24 hours. The best previous record fell 347 miles short of that. The greatest endurance test ever made was that of the Hudson double trans-continental run. The 7,000 miles- was covered in 10 days and 21 hours. It was the only round trip test ever completed and the dis- tance each way between San Francisco and New York was made in less time than any other car has ever done. No Car Ever Offered Sach Proof The reason these records, made years ago, still stand unequalled is simple. The Super-Six is a pat- ented motor developed and controlled by Hudson. The principle which gives it power and endurance over others, would, if incorporated in any other six, make it equal to Hudson in that respect. But you must choose a Hudson to get those quali- ties. There is no other way. Hudson also leads in style. It has introduced mod- Our new home corner Second and Yellowstone’ tion, absolutely the best equipped shop in the state.

The new lines of body design and finish are usual- ly first seen in the Hudson models. The stream line body, the beveled edge tonneau and now the square lines that give to Hudson such distinction and sim- plicity, first appeared on the Super-Six. Don’t Forget that Hudson’s Endurance is Exclusive These things enhance the Hudson. But the one important quality is that of endurance. Nothing else is so important. More than 70,000 Super-Six are now in use. Before the present model was offered 60,000 earlier types had shown the way to its development. The things men had said would make the Super-Six the best car that is built are incorporated in this new model. Others can not build a car like it, for Hudson alone controls the patents that makes it the greatest speed and endurance stock car. ‘Also it is the Most e Wanted Fine Car That is proved by its sales record as the largest selling fine car. It is proved by the thousands who have waited their turn to get delivery. The demand during the active buying seasons has always been in excess of supply. For some models men have been waiting months. You will certainly want a Hudson, if not this year then next. Now is nof too early to speak for it. R. N.
