Don't Fail to See This Car--It is Here

In the HUDSON "37" is expressed the COM
bined skill and experience of the greatest body
of automobile engineers in the country.
These men represent the training of the
greatest factories in the world. They have
learned what experience has taught the 81 prin-
cipal makers of Europe and America
They were active, important members of
those various organizations and, combined, had
a hand in the production of more than 200 900
automobiles.
Imagine what strides, what advancement,
men of such experience are bound to offer in the
Car which all have joined in perfecting.
You probably have an ideal of what a motor
car should be. Your knowledge of automobile
shortcomings undoubtedly has suggested
Improvements which you would have in car
if it were built to your order.
Well, here is where you will find not only
what you wish to see, but also what has been
expressed through the experience that has been
gained from the 200 900 owners who have used
the cars which these men have helped to build

Illustrating the bigness of the car is
the fact that it has 11S-inch wheel

NAME Of EMF
CHANGEOBY CD.
Cars That Have Won Fame
for Many Years Are Now
"StudebakerS."

To change. by one bold stroke, the
name under which is annually marketed
a product valued at S5O.0OO,0OO Is a feat
Of daring new to industrial history. Yet
it has Just been performed by the
Sudebaker Corporation, Of Detroit,
which has sent notice to its dealers all
over the country that, in the future, all
the motor cars built at its mammoth
Detroit plants will be known as "Stude-
baker" cars
The change went into effect with the
opening Of the current month. A big
battery Of machine tools is now en-
gagged in turning out the initial lot of
100000 "Studebalker" script radiator
name plates which viii replace those at
present in use, not only on the cars now
being marketed, but also on all cars
sold by the Studebakers and their pre-
decessors, the EMF Company, which
was merged into the Studebaker Cor
poration some time ago. As soon as IT
is possible to supply the monographs to
Studebal5er dealers. all cars now in use
Will be equipped with them.
The change, though startling, Is thor
eushly logical Since the beginning Of
the automobile plants around which tho
present Studebaker system has been
buGit, members of the Stakeholder fam
fly have been heavy stockholders. Two
years ago they acquired a controlling
interest The automobile plants are now
owned outright by the Studebaker Cor
poration. Practically all the cars built
there have been sold through the Stude-
baker branches. Studebaker policies
prominent among which are the broad
guarantee and close relations with re-
tail dealers, have dominated the Arm for
the past two years
With this condition in evidence It
seemed TO the executives Of the corpo-
nation, az well as TO its dealers, that the
change was not only advisable, but vir-
tuRlly essential.
From such points of view we regret
the passing OF the old EMF 80 and
Flanders 40 radiator monographs" said
Clement Studebslper, Jr., first vice pres
i6ent Of the firm "A desire for uni
fornnity Is, however, very strong among
our dealers. They all feel. too. that
there is a marked advantage in the old
trade mark that has been borne by the
goods made by our family for three
generations. These conditions, and the
fact that the old monographs had long
ago lost their personal significance are
the reasons for the change, according to
which every car we make and have
made will bear the Studeballer name
henceforth."

Ii Has Features
No Other Car Possesses

No car you can get today, regardless of
price, has all the features that are offered in the
81
Consider for a moment the rapid advance
ment that has been made in motor Car building.
Ii is almost as startling as are the changes in
fashion. Think how strange are the open cars of
two years ago. What proportion of their original
cost do you think such cars now bring? 1t is
not due to wear that their value has declined so
much. No, it is the advance that has been made
in automobile building since the open cars were
put on the market.
With that thought in mind you must rec
ognize the Importance of choosing wisely now
Automobiles as now built should be of service for
many years and you don't want to feel that you
will have to buy new Car in two, three or four
years because the one you have just purchased
will, at that time, be out of date.

The Pennsylvania legislature of 1911 en-

proximately 5000 miles in extent, and
reaching every county seat, every large
center of population. and states lines in a
great number Of places where connections

made. The state highway department was

A stunt" which is considered quite re-
markabe was recently performed BY a
Flanders motorcycle ridden by Lawrence
Hall, member of the Waco, Texas, board
of commerce.
The young mems club of the board of
commerce make an annual trade boosting
trip throughout the southern section of
the Lone Star state of which Waco Is the
business center. Hall decided to make the
trip, but did not want to use the special
train, which carried the tourists. Thought
better way was to use his motorcycle.
Hall pulled out of Waco, an hour in ad-
vance of the special, stopped at all the
towns included in the itinerary of the
tourists and arrived in Elgin. 101 miles
distant, in 207 miles, the major part of
the run being made over very rough and
sandy roads. At one time Hall was over
taken by the special, but that occurred
at a point about ten miles from Elgin,
where the roads were fairly good, and he
succeeded in regaining his lead, reaching
Elgin a few minutes before the special
pulled in.
Do not get the idea that a crease will
smooth itself out when the tire is in place
on the wheel and the tire inflated to it's
normal pressure. This may or may not
happen-it usually does not. Small
creases almost invariably become more
deeply set as the pressure is added, and
after the tire has been run for few
miles they change from creaSes into
cracks. resulting in blowOuts. And the
rush Of air through a hole thus made in
the tube usually tears the sides Of the
hole, making il much larger than the
original crack.
Arrangements have been made in Lon
don to found a motor museum to include

of the museum is to be in South Kensing-

The Greatest Engineer of All-Their Chief

At the head of these experts is Howard E Coffin the
foremost automobile engineer of America recognized here
and abroad the startingly original designer the
industry has produced.
His genius an inspiration to his associates From him
they have gained in ability On of them he has
become broader and more versatile builder.
What lacked in experience, some one of his
associates able to supply. The problems one was
unable to solve, others found the answer for.
That accounts for the completeness of this car. That
for the fact that you will find on the very things
that you have wished to find an automobile. That
explains why this will do the things which other four
cylinder automobiles have failed to accomplish.
