Don't BE Deceived in Cars
That are Made for Trading

II you are trading your old automo-
bile in on a new one. here is a caution
you should observe.
There are cars toward the purchase Of
which larger price will be allowed for
your present automobile than you can
obtain in buying a more desirable auto
mobile.
Ii is better to decide upon which car
you will prefer. Satisfy yourself that it
Is the best buy at a cash price. and that
Il is the one you would choose il you
we're paying cash. Then If you are
selling your old car, obtain the best bar
gain possible.

But do not accept merely for the sake
OF change in cars, an automobile that
you do not consider advisable at a cash
price.
HUDSONS are not made to trade.
HUDSON automobiles second hand"
command a higher price proportionste TO
their original cost than those Of any
other make in the medium price class.
They are not sold TO the dealer at a
large discount thus permitting him 20

No more profit on the HUDSON is
allowed than that given on most auto

CONGRATULATIONS.

Moving picture show managers
around these towns have been show
ing commendab1e enterprise and good
taste in their selection of films dur
ing the past few weeks.
The folks in these smoky towns
and cities have seen the divine Sarah
Bernhard in Camille, Madame
Rejane in Sans-Gene, the play that
brings in Napoleon, the Garden of
Allah with real films from the
desert, and. last but not least. the
Carnegie-Polar motion pictures.
We have said all along that the
cinematograph managers would
eventually recognize that the public
would show its sincere appreciation
of good films by full house attendance
when pictures of merit would be ex-
Inhibited. Our motion picture men are
to be congratulated.
Now let them eliminate this rank

YES WHY NOT?

Governor Marshall. in order to
prove that he is really and truly of
the proletariat, declares that when
he makes his campaign he will ride
on the regular trains and spurn
private cars. Why not carry the
thing a bit further and prove his
plainness even more emphatically by
riding the blind baggage or hoofing
it? But by the way, did any one
ever hear of vice-presidential can
didate campaigning in a special
train? We fear us that the governor
in his effort to prove his Jeffersonian
simplicity is stopping over a wee bit.
