SIX LUXURIOUS BODIES

We have made the Super-Six so it looks its SUI
premacy. Six of the finest bodies ever built have
heen created for II. We have attained in them
the farthest limit In luxury and beauty.
And again we have doubled our output This
seasons production of the Super-Six will sell for
$42,ooo,ooo. So we giving greater value than
ever was known in a car above ST., ,o00
See the Super-Six at the Show Then prove it's
supremacy at the first opportunity by taking ride
in our demonstrators.

81 II. p. WAS WASTED

A motor Of this size actually creates about IS
horsepower IN energy. In former Light Skies 1t
delivered AZ horsepower. So "a horsepower
heretofore wasted, compared with the Super-Six.
That waste lay In vibration, causing friction. We
have saved that waste by wiping out vibration.
No extra power Is developed, no extra fuel is
consumed. Simply by conserving the energy Gre
ated we attain this vast reserve power.
Omaha daily bee., 1916-02-24

That's 80 per cent moro than formerly, motor
size considered. Thus the Super-Six, for its Cyn-
der capacity, is by far the most efficient motor
known.

A new monarch appears at the Show this year,
"A with records to prove its supremacy.
1t is lightweight Six, simple and economical.
No added cylinders or size.
But it shows 80 per cent more efficiency than
like-sze motors heretofore developed.
1t means that Six-the ideal type of motor
has outrivaled Fights and Twelves. Its records
have never been matched.
And this Super-Six is Hudson invention, con-
trolled by Hudson patents. So, for the first time,
an epoch-making feature is found in only car
at the Show.

There ls hardly condition where the Super-Six
is taxed beyond one-half capacity. And that means
vast fuel economy.
This utter smoothness also multiplies en-
durance. In that Speedway test $50 miles
were made at top capacity. No other stock
car motor ever built has stood an equal test.
Years of ordinary driving would not match
that strain. Yet the Super-Six came through
that test without any discoverable wear.
That means endurance far beyond the
farthest limits ever known before.

Matthew 30.
From Maine to California, from
Galveston 20 Duluth, the question Of
preparedness for military service is
in the minds OF the people. Like d
bugle blast the summons came to
the men Of the state guards and
everywhere there was a ready re-
sponse. Notably from the colleges
and universities young men, the fin

Yale, OF Harvard, Of Berea, from the
numberless colleges they rallied at
the call. Military camps sprang up
everywhere and the character Of the
life Of these men was changed in q
day. The student laid aside his
books, the merchant his wares, the
accountant his ledger, the machin-
ist his tools, the farmer left his
fields, and their attention at once
was devoted to the details Of mill
tary life.
