and hunter, with the assistance of his
young daughter, a child Of the wilder

the third place, the simple appeal they

known to tho Indians and the colonists,
but It is not likely that we, their de-
scendants, will take 10 1t just yet, not
withstanding the increasing meat

attention to that new industry, the
raising of wild animals on farms for
their pelts. The silver fox, the mink.
the skunk. the otter and badger lend
themselves to this purpose with great
profit. And deer may be raised both
for sale alive to parks and for venison.

throughout there is plea for the pres

1t IS the Greek spirit Of bcauty-and
the English spirit Of race at it's best
that brings her victory after much

NEW HUDSON "37" IS
 ON EXHIBITION HERE
First Composite Automobile Is Being Shown in Birmingham Now by
 Charles Denegre

The first composite automobile. built by 4s leading motor car engineers working under the direction of Howard E. Coffin. the foremost American de signer, arrived at the store of Charles Denegre. the Hudson dealer, today; and was immediately, placed on exhibition : The car, a touring model. is beauty IL is far larger than last years Hnd- son and shows the progress that has been made in a single year by having large number of noted specialists work together in creating a single car.
 The car is electrically self-cranking. Illustrating the bigness of the car ;s the fact that it has 11S-inch wheel base, the tonneau is wide. deep and roomy, and the cushions are 12 inches deep, Turkish type. The motorist sinks down into them as he would into a sleepy hollow chair.
 The car is electric lighted through out front, tail. side and the dash lamps being operated by three buttons on the dash.
 The men who built the car are lead CTS in their line, from every automo- bile building nation, America. France. Germany Italy. Austria and England. Each is a specialist along certain lines. The advanced motor ear ideas of such men have as a consequence produced an automobile that to many motor fists will be revelation. Taking the motor as an instance. 1t is powerful, long stroke motor, developing 43 horse power on the brake test and Is dust proof. All valves, valve mechanism

and moving parts are entirely enclosed so that dust, the most ruinous element that an automobile must face, is elim- mated entirely. As an indication of the completeness of the ear from ev- cry possible standpoint are such fea- lures as the ease of operating the self starting system, which merely makes it necessary to push a button from the seat to start the motor. There is q rain vision wind shield built into the car that makes it possible to see and drive perfectly even though the down. pour is binding.
 The new Hudson "37" was tested 2O,0CO miles by racing driver, through 10 states-the equivalent of 40,00o miles of ordinary driving. The racing drivers instructions were to break her to pieces if you can" The testing ground most used was in the Allegheny mountains, in spite of the warning of motoring authorities against any car going through the stony mountain passes unless specially tuned up. This warning was unheeded and the racing driver put the car over these bad roads as a part of the 20,000-mile tryout. Al the end of the test it was not neees- sary to make a single basic change from the design determined upon by the 4S engineers and Mir.
