There are no HUDSON critics. Many buy other cars because they are cheaper. Or because they are higher— high enough to be unique. Or because they are novel in some other respect. But all of these men respect HUD- SONS. Theyrespect thejudgmentof men whobuy them. That'sevidenteverywhere, Note Its Buyers About 95 per cent are experienced motorists. About 28 per cent have owned higher-priced cars. . They are motor-wiseand fastidious. As a class they are men accustomed tp the best. They are quality buyers who de- mand value. They don’t care to pay for mere excess or show. They want no pass- ing fad. They are buying, in most part, tinuous power, is the ultimate tn motors. The HUDSON type—high speed, small bore, long stroke-—has become the universal standard in a Six. Excess weight is crudity. There never was a stauncher car than the HUDSON, despite its lightness, which is unmatched in any 7-passenger Six. No car carries more passengers. None has more needed room. None has more comfort, luxury, quality or class, And none more beauty than this new model. It brings out the Yacht-Line body, the Lustrous finish, enameled leather upholstery, and many other final touches. If you buy a car in this class this season you are bound to want the HUDSON. You will not find a rival in sight of it, But you can't get a HUDSON, in all clusively to the automoblle business rather go buck by the way of Raton. | e “\f‘l\ were Iu‘lm-:|. n\';r :::y‘\..'j::‘:"w:x:i Oakland Factory i M pir bl e Promises to Furnis Omaha with Cars | time, although we had the mild satistac- |tion of pulling eight cars out of bad places, one of them twice."

The convincing proof is here —see the new KisselKar Six “A great six—nothing to compare with it for the price’’—that was the verdict of motordom on the KisselKar 42-Six last season. And now comes a new series of this quality automobile with all its goodness preserved—plus. Iet the price is less. The Kissel-built motor in this ecar is a rovelation in its infinite smoothness of motion. And for looks—just remember the beautiful yacht-like lines of the previous models.
