Save Money Now On Hudson Super-Six ON EXHIBIT AT Price has always been a fairly ac- curate index of quality. But just now, because of the headlong rising of material costs, price not a true in- dication of value. Fifty-one cars have been forced to advance prices 20 to 25 per cent. The present supply of Hudson Super-Sixes is built from materials contracted last year. Since then ma- terial costs have almost doubled. When that supply of material ex- hausted, then Hudsons, too, must cost more. . By prompt buying you can save the difference between what a Hudson Super-Six now costs and what it must certainly have to cost when its price FAIR GROUNDS is influenced by the present mate market.

Moran, son of Mr. and Mrs. John A. d Norwich. 9.05 o'clock train this (Wednesday) morning and will arrive at Camp Dev- ans about 3 o'clock this afternoon. One man will leave Thursday morning, one Friday and the last d of the five per cent. will leave on Saturday. On Tuesday morning the six men were given an automobile ride about the Bogue. ‘After communicating with District board No. 2 at Waterbury, the New London exemption board has made a decision on the first six men whom they will send imto the national army. Three of these are from New London and one each from Mystic, Waterford and Groton. They are men from a group who showed a special desire to g0 with the first quota and oconse- quéntly were the first to be given con- sideration. Two will leave today and one on each of the following .four days. 5 WILL START FRIDAY TO COLLECT PAPER Money Realized FFOM‘SI'I Will Go To Red Cross - Beginning Friday the National League will start collecting waste pa- per again. From now on this will be done every two weeks. It s hoped that this first collection which should include the accumulation for August nay be a very large one as the money realized from the sale of the paper will be given over to the Red Cross Free Wool Fund. Many times -every Ay when the League rooms are open people come in who are willing to do their part and knit the much needed articles for the soldiers and sailprs but who do not feel that they can af- ford to buy wool for more than ane piece. - The @enerous contribution of old_newspapers and magazines given to the collectors o Friday will aid in providing ‘wool for these people. The sets which are being sent out include sweaters. mufflers, helmet whistlets and stockings. After September 4 the League rooms in the Thayer building will be open from 10 to 12 and from 3 to § every week day except Saturday. The wool for the articles for the Army and Navy Sets with the directions how to make them may be obtained there. COMPENSATION AGREEMENTS. Com- Nine Are’ Approved by the Local missioner. Nine compensation agreements have been approved and signed by Commis- sioner James J. Donohue as follows: Shetucket Co., Norwich, employer, and Fred Peplow, Norwich, employe, sprained right arm, $4.58 weekly dur- ing_disability. Fisk Carter plover, Jewett City, Construction Co, em- d@nd Charles On- bought at $200 to $300 less than the | zonman, Jewett City, employe, lacerat- Super-Six, no two of them had salés|ed foot, $13.50 equal to those of the Hudson. That shows how popular the Super-Six has always been as compared to other cars. It is easy to imagine how much more popular it will be now that there is no such price advantage. The Hud- son Super-Six has made itself the wanted car as compared with others. It is the largest selling fine car. Almost 40,000 daily are in use. It has established itself as the lifetime car.
