OF satisfied Hudson owners" says l. III
Hagerling, of the Hudson sales
agency. that the Detroit factory am
nounces the continuance OF the Super
Six Hudson model.
THE original program for 1915 was
to manufacture 10000 super-sixes The
demand for the car was so great that
II was found necessary to increase the
number to $4,000 cars.
THE super-six has proved to be an
immensely popular car. In the various
tests of speed and endurance to which
It has been subjected both in the hands
or owners and under the auspices of
the American Automobile Association
the car has made a wonderful record.
For this reason the increase in produc-
tion will be particularly good news to
motorcar owners in the Metropolitan
district as we are now able to make
deliveries of cars to many who had
this year.
Word also comes from the Detroit
factory that unless there should be

seen. the, policy of the Hudson Com

Haynes Car Crosses the
Continent in A Dav ?

Across the American continent in
one day is the unique record made by
a Haynes automobile on June IS. OF
the elapsed twelve hours, which break
by many hours any previous trans
continental automobile records, only
hours and 40 minutes was actual run
ming time. The Haynes car was driven
by Samuel Grier, motorcar Inspector
Tor the Panama canal, accompanied
by r. NJ. McKena, and Mr., Grier's bull
pup mascot "Marnique."
Many motor enthusiasts of the 18TH
mus assembled at the Playe del Mer-
cede pier at Panama City, Panama, at
$3.50 a. m. to see Mr.. Grler back the
hind wheels of his car in the tide
water of the Pacific and start across
the Isthmus to the Atlantic The car
proceeded through the City of Panama
over the roads of the Canal Zone TO
Pedro Miguel, and from this military
post Journeyed over the newly con-
structed road toward Gamboa, the
greater portion of which was built by
convict labor. The convict road leads
over the Continental divide at Gold
LIN, opposite which is the Village of
Culebra, overlooking Gilliard Cut.
Two miles from Gamboa, it was
necessary for Mr.. Grier to leave the
road and follow the railway to Gatun.
II was mere InaJ MI. Grter was hand
ed the official train order HAYNES
Special No. 6, undoubtedly the first
train order issued to an automobile
giving right of way on the ties. The
first miles of the railroad trip to Gam
boa were exceptionally rough. The
Ties were far apart, and it was neces-
sary for the off wheels of the car to
run on the edge of the ties
From Gamboa to Gatun, all the viii
lagos are cut off except by railroad and
the fare is so large that the natives
have never reached the terminal cit
ties and seen an automobile. Conse
quently the small towns were filed
with curious crowds, watching for the
hrst automobile in the interior of the
Isthmus.
Gatun was reached at p. m. and
from there to Colon the trip was made
in double quick order over the splen-
did road through the Mindy Valley. At
6:25 p. m. Mr.. Grier drove his car in
10 the Atlantic ocean. The car Mr..
Grier used was a five passenger
Haynes, reconstructed by himself into
a roadster.
