MADE TRUE PREDICTION.
Co. Can Turn Out
 1000 Cars a Day.

A prediction made by John x. Willys, president of the Willys- Over land company, a year ago was that the Overland factory would be ship ping 600 cars a day before the end of 1915. At that time the Toledo plant was setting the pace for all motor car manufa cturers with the exception of one. It's daily output was averag- ing around 150 cars. but even though the growth had been phenomenal few people outside of MT. Willys believed it possible to quarduple it's prOduc- tiOn during the year just passed.
 However, before the end of Sep tember the factory had fulfilled the prediction of it's president. Not only did Mr. Willys make good on his 600 car a day program but he increased the manufacturing facilities of the plant so that it is now possible to build 1000 machines every twenty four hours.

OIL COMPANY BUYS 25
 HUDSON SUPER-SIXES
Selection Made After Chief Engineer of Oklahoma Firm Visited Lcad-
 ing Automobile Plants.

Twenty-Five of the new. patented 76 horse power Hudson Super-Sixes have just been sold to the QuapaW Oil X Gas Co.,, of Bartlesville Okla, by the McClelland Gentry Motor Co.,, of Oklahoma city. At the present time, the company is using 27 cars of IS different makes, which they have been testing for the past two years. As result of the Super-SiX purchase all those cars now in use have been off cred for sale and the 25 Super-SiXes will be called on to do the work that the 27 have been doing.
 The sale was directly due to the fact that some time ago, the chief engineer of the company. and a num- Der of it's officials had ride in a 1914 Hudson which had been run some 10000 miles, which had changed hands four times, and still was doing all that it was called on to do in the oil fields, which is no weddings task
 The chief engineer accordingly went to Detroit and was shown about the leading autom Obile factories, where he closely scrutinized methods of manu- facture, material used and became ac- quainted with other vital factors or

years we subjected it to the most gruelling and exhaustive tests ever given a motor. In 1911, the proof of it's superiority over the poppet valve complete, we designed and built the first Stearns- Knight power plant, applying the new and greater principle 10 the time tried standards cf the old-and introducing the StearnS- S-Knight-Amerlca s HTS" Knight mOtOred car.
 In the quality of design, perform ance, workmanship and material tho Stearns- Knight stood unparalleled in American practice. In value 1t has since been comparable only with the finest and highest priced cars of foreign manufacture.
 We had long been cognizant of the demand for high grade cars at a moderate price, and While the adoption of the Knight type power plant as combined. with our chassiS st that time, represented motor car which was far beyond the man of moderate means--it at the same time created possibilities in the de- velopment of this combination which would ultimately lead to motor car embodying all the qualities Of the highest priced cars at pflce un- heard of in the history of the auto mobile.
 The success of the Stearns-knight during it's first year encouraged us to take advantage of the opportunity thus presented, and we concentrated all our efforts upon the development of the Stearns-knight combination. In 1914 VIC introduced the result of our efforts-the Stearns-Knight Four Cylinder model at $1.750. At that price it represented the fruits of our eighteen years experience combined with the greatest value of modern practice--a Knight type power plant and the first of it's kind to sell under $2,OOO.
 As test upon the sincerity of the demand for such a car we produced t in limited quantities only last year Before half the year had passed we were convinced of it's success and planned additional fac ory space for it's production in in creased quantities.
 This year, our plans complete and

 Equal to Task.
 That the company's plant and equipment was equal to the task is evidenced by the magnificent show ing of the Hudson Super-SiX which is at the Hudson booth. Here are shown five of the new models, the Phaeton, the Touring Sedan, the Ca brioet. the roadster and town car. That the public is interested in the new Hudson is proved by the throns that constantly surrounds the Hud- son exhibit.

 But the real problem was just be- ginning. Assured to the minutest de- gree of the success of the Super-SiN. the order was given to build 30,000 of these cars, itself a tremendous undertaking. To do this it was neces- Sary to double the capacity of the lactory and the work was begun with out an instant's delay
