The dollars you put into this car have the biggest purchasing power you have ever exercised. With other makes, other models and other prices of other days in mind, you realize what this extra- ordinary purchasing power now means. This purchasing power—when applied to the Paige Big Six— springs from several fundamental factors— Increased production due to the ever-increasing demand for Paige Sixes; the Paige policy to give the utmost in value; and advancement in scientific manufacturing and merchandising methods. ar is a Paige These facts explain in a large measure why the Paige was enabled to cut the price of its Big Six $100 and yet give youstill greater values. In addition to the character- istic features of value and quality that previously won distinction for the Paige, such as luxury, ease of riding, simplicity of control and ample power, you will now find extra values like these: A real Pantasote top; the most expensive body finish—a Richelieu Blue achieved by 24 days of the air-drying process; and genuine French glaze hand-buffed leather for the upholstery. .

MINER - 305 ASYLUM STREET, Smashed by the Hudson Super-Six Eights and Twelves Outrivaled--80% Extra Efficiency CORES of makers base their an old type. Other makers, as a new sensation, state that Eights and Twelves are better. But we claim this, and prove it: The Super-Six—a Hudson invention—out-matches them all, and by 80 per cent. Any rival motor, size for size, is hardly more than half as efficient. And the proof lies partly in official which broke the world’s stock-car records. A SMALL 76 H. P.MOTOR claims on Sixes of tests, Here is a motor small and light, identical in size with our former Light Six. That size of motor won most of last year’s races. has proved itself the ideal size. We have not added one cubic inch to capacity, nor an extra cylinder. Yet we get from that motor full 76 horsepower, against the former 42 horsepower. That is, we have added 80 per cent. to efficiency by a patented method of ending vibration. We have made a motor in that ideal size the greatest motor in existence. And the proof lies in official tests—in the world’s records broken. See below. OTHER CLAIMS ANNULLED It We were building a Six—the famous Hudson Six-40 —which won the top place in the field. Not a rival today builds a Six to compare with i, When the V-types came out—the Eights and Twelves —we built various types of them. : 5 ade at Sheepshead E / an Automobile A Then our engineers last summer conceived the Su- per-Six.

A smooth-running Six, light and simple, had proved itself nearly twice better. And it proved it again last November in official world’s record-breaking tests. MARVELOUS FEATS Think of taking a Light Six and nearly doubling its horsepower. Imagine what that reserve power means in a hundred situations. Hills are climbed without effort. Hard roads become easy. Flexibility is multiplied. And no car ever showed such quick acceleration. But the great fact is that this whole result comes through wiping out vibration, by attaining utter smooth- ness. So riding is like flying in this Super-Six. Engine wear is reduced almost to zero. The fuel saving is enormous. For all the power gained by the Super-Six is power that was herctofore wasted—power that was lost in vibration. This quiet smoothness, also, means an all-enduring car. All of which was amply proved in the which broke all world’s records. tests NO COMPARABLE CAR The Super-Six is a Hudson invention, controlled by basic patent. So no other car can employ it. And its proved supremacy of 80 per cent. leaves it without rivalry. But you cannot realize what this means until you ride in the Super-Six. We invite you to do that, wheth- er you want a new car or not. We want you to know and talk about this Super-Six performance. under ion supervision of with a stock-car records for any of cylinders. ing rer. 7-Passenger Phaeton $1375 at Detroit Five Other Styles of Bodies HUDSON MOTOR CAR CO.,, DETROIT, MICH. sec. 71.67 passer made with a only and pa e — HARTFORD The Paige Detroit Motor Car Company, Detroit, Michigan MORRIN'S GARAGE 200 East Main Street, New Britain, Tel, 943-2—Agent for - Britain, Bristol.
