Hej - ere—Price 51 : Improved in the Ways Men Have Said Would Make It the Finest Car Built. Prompt Deliveries to EatLy'Buyers The new Hudson Super-Six is just such a car as you might expect. '. e Four years in development and 60,000 in service have resulted in a finer, more de- + sirable Super-Six. . ;Many of the annoyances regarded as " inevitable to all cars have been eliminated. It starts easier, rides easier, and runs smoother. All the qualities that distin- guish the Super-Six you know are retained - ~—in many instances, enhanced. Such High Development Possible Only to Hudson Without the experience gained with 60,000 earlier cars, this new Super-Six could not have been so perfected. Four years ago the Super-Six checked the trend to a greater number of cylinders because it gave all the smoothness sought fpr without sacrificing the simplicity of the six. It increased motor power 72% without added cylinders or weight. : Then it proved in hundreds of record tests, an endurance surpassing all previous performances. It became the largest sell- ing fine car. Perfected by Those Who , Designed It Each year has seen the emphasis of some new quality. : The greater range of power and perfor- mance was no sooner established than it became famous on every speedway, in every endurance test. Then it took the beauty. Its various lead because of its body types arec ac- BARRETT-HUDSON (O cepted standards.. They accurately fore- cast motor car design. The world accepts the Hudson as its most famous fine car. The men who designed it are for the most part the same who have brought it to” its present high degree of perfection. They have observed its career with the one thought of higher accomplishment. And into this new: Hudson, they have put the fullness of their experience. They have made it their attainment— the Super-Sixes you know are but promises ! of that which they have now accomplished. Prompt Delivery Now The Price is $1975 (522 Detroit Mid season has always shown a short- age of Hudsons. Four months after the first Super-Six was announced, ten thou- sand buyers were waiting their turn for delivery. st Every year has been a Hudson Spper- Six year. Practically no Hudsons have been available for months. Now the new carisready. Factory pro- duction is large, but only the frst buyers can expect prompt delivery. When these added qualities become known the demand must be greater than ever before. % Even with no change in the Super-Six, there would have continued a demand for it equal to the increased factory output. But with the Supér-Six as it now is, we see a shortage situation surpassing any pre- vious year. So we urge you to see the new Hudson so you can place your order at once and thus get earlier delivery than will be pos- sible if you wait: SERVICE STATION—WHITE'S COURT, FRANKLIN Q. : EARNEST WHITE, Manager.

Bradford of Montyille, as administrator of the estate of the late George H. Pratt The claim is made that Pratt ob- tained by fraud and duress . from Tuckie the conveyance of certain real estate valued at $7,000 over and above all incumbrances, and that this act on the part of Pratt was.a fraud upon the creditors of Tuckie and an im- provident act that left Tuckie desti- sute and withaut meaps to pay his just debts and the expenses of his last illness, which still remain unpaid.
