HUDSON SUPER IS
 RESULT OF YEARS
 OF TRYING LABOR

The Hudson Super-Six of course, like every noteworthy achievement represents a long series of years de- voted to hard work.
 During these years Hudson officials were guided by one ideal-the desire to turn out a truly American car at a price which would let the value speak in clarion tones to all buyers.
 The Super-SiX is the climax of Hud- son history. It came as the logical inn provement in motors. It's principle is patented and owned by Hudson. It settled all arguments between six, eight and twelve cylinder motors.
 To get the idea of the wonderful ability of this motor firmly implanted in the mind of the public, the Hud- son Super-SiX was sent after all monner of reCords-speed, endurance, acceleration and ll-climbing.
 It won and won-and is still win ming.
 These tests show buyers the extra stamina of their motor. They prove the greatness of the motor; show that any use you may put it to cannot strain it. They prove longer life than was heretofore possible; no one knows the limit of service the Super-Slx patented motor will give.
 The Super-Six is apparently the one car in the entire field which will give you that extra something every motorist looks for.

The Best Soldier

It isn't the big 17O-pounders that the examining boards who have been choosing recruits for the new National army greet with enthusiasm. It's the 1.-the chap who weighs about one hun dred and forty and hasn't a pound to spare that is the real prize for military service.
 Tests made at Princeton and in the training camps go to show that, weight for weight, a man of this build handles himself most effectively. He scores relatively low in strength tests but re- markedly high in endurance. He is adaptable when it comes to the mod ifications of diet that life in camr makes necessary and he can stand inv spection with full equipment on a hot day and smile, while the big fellow wits and falls out.

Servself AfIoat

There isn't chance of lodging them any more, either on land or on sea. The sailor boys on the U. $. $. New York form in line between decks and tray in hand, select their food at the counter of the ships Servself. A black board over the counter lists the bill- of-fore and in all other respects ex- cept the presence of the grasping cashier, the service is just like the mid day lunch back home
 The new method, which is to be in- stalled on all of the big battleships. re- places the old system of messmen and mess units. Then all of the food fol the meal was piled on the plates at the tables by the messmen and the job o1 serving the entire unit was completed before the 1len were "piped down tC their cooling food.
 Surely hot food, in the amount VOL want and of the kind you want. mus be an improvement over the old mess but juggling a tray loaded to the gun. | wales with beans and corned beef anf bread and coffee, on the rolling wave. | must be something of fine art.

The Drivers Column

A recent article in Motor Age, "Niceties of Good Driving" was il- lustrated by photographs of Mar mon car and the article has many points of interest.
 The average car today is built to withstand more than normal treat ment. In spite of this, many times the car receives such abuse at the hands of the owner or driver that, notwithstanding the care taken in its manufacture, it is an old car long before it's usefulness should have been touched. The writer of the article makes q statement which, while 1t is not entirely original, is always worth bringing up. He men tions that if the average owner of a car owned valuable horse, he would not for an instant tolerate the idea of forcing him to trot uphill, nor go for a single day without proper nourishment. The motor car, in the majority of cases is far more valuable than the horse, and demands the same careful treatment and nour- ishing. According to the, author of the article, every one who drives a car has, perhaps, within him the facul- | ties of becoming a.n expert driver, yet very few get to the point where | they are proficient, simply because 1 they see no necessity for it and be- lieve that all there is to the art of | driving is included in merely the shifting of gears and the giving of l gasoline. Perfection in the art of | driving demands that the car owner first of all, have q clear conception of the mechanism of his car. This does not necessarily mean that every l one who drives a car must have a | complete technical knowledge of the countless parts that go to make ur the modern motor car, but it does mean that every owner, so far as
 possible, should acqllaint himself witt
 the functions of the main mechani- cal details.
 In the Marmon A engineers have | sought to make the art of driving
 as simple as possible. The shifting
 of gears, which is often the mos
 difficult part of driving, has beer
 made easy by placing the contro
 levers within easy reach.
 Practically anybody can become Z good driver with little practice ant
 care. In fact, to the pleasure o
 driving can be attributed many sale.

 who find great delight in drivins
 their cars, and seldom are interested

RUDOLPH MARVELS
 AT PLAN IN VOGUE
 AT FORD FACTORY

Preservation of a smoothly work | ing harmony between employees of | 6S different nationalities, speaking | many different tongues, and a lack I of any troublesome differences be- | tween employe and employer, was one of the things which impressed most forcibly Ed. Rudolph of the local Ford agency when he visited the factory in Detroit some time ago.
 Nowhere in the whole world can such a complete harmony between workingman and employer be found, says Mir. Rudolph, and without this condition it would be impossible for the Ford factory to turn out 5000 finished automobiles per day through out the year,
 Some time ago, the company came | to the conclusion that a majority of
 the discharges were caused by a. lack of understanding between the
 employe and his foreman, or because | an employe has been placed at work | for which he is mentally or phySi- cally unfit. Insofar as possible, the | latter trouble is obViated by a strict physical examination, to which all | applicants must submit at the time
 of hiring. A man with weak lungs
 is not put at dusty or confining l work; man with a weak heart is
 not placed on a heavy lifting job.
 And now, when a foreman wishes to
 discharge an employe, he sends the
 man, with a written card, to the
 Employment office. As rule, the
 man returns to the same department,
 often to the same work, but with an
 ability to see the other fellows side,
 and a determination to make good.
 Sometimes he is transferred to an
 other department, on work for which
 he is better fitted
 The medical examining rooms at
 tached to the employment office, are
 a branch of the Ford emergency hos
 pital, located within the factory, and which cares for the physical well-being of the more than 36,000 employees in the treatment of in juries received through accidents
 It is a completely equipped twenty room institution, including a seven bed ward, and with six outlying first and stations throughout the
 factory. Everything which a mod .
 ern hospital can use is installed in
 this department.
 ,, Safety work concerns not only the
 loss of fingers and injuries of this nature, but undertakes to protect the health of the men as we'll Work , ing conditions are made as nearly f ideal as possible. The entire factory I interior is painted white and kept
 scripulously clean. Washed air at = just the right temperature for com ,. fort and efficient work is forced i. into every part of the factory, while e drinking water, filtered and properly cooled, is available at sanitary drink
 ing fountains scattered at frequent
 intervals about the plant. Suction e systems remove the dust from grind = ing wheels and other points where I dust arises.
 f In the past year the number oi d accidents serious enough to cause Q loss of time from work has beer | reduced one-half until a lost-time Q record of but 2.2 accidents pel s thousand men per month has beer attained. Not a single fatal acci- : dent occurred in the Ford factory h during 1916.

KNIGHT SLEEVE
 VALVE M0T0R| |S
 WAR NECESSITY

Quietly and without any blare of trumpets or advertising to acclaim it's triumph, the Knight sleeve valve motor has come into its own in the great war, and today not only the allied armies but the enemy as well are depending very largely upon the efficiency and reliability of the Knight engine on the field of battle, says the local manager of the Over land-Arizona company.
 If we trace the history of the European war-which war depends to a. large extent upon gasoline-we find the Knight engine in the thick Of it from the very beginning back in 1914" he says.
 When the British army went over the motor transports furnished by the British government were all Knight motored, and from that day to this practically all of the British army movements have been carried forth by Daimler Knight busses and motor transports.
 And again it was the Knight motor that helped save Paris. For when the famous "raXicab army" went forth from the French Capitol, the bulk of them carried by Pan- hard Knights.
 Then, late in 1915 came the su- preme achievement of the Knight motor. For when the British tanks" were designed the Knight motor was the unanimous choice of the British staff.
 ''The tank is a veritable moving fort. weighing many tons, and ot tremendous strength and power. Its success of course and the lives oi its crew depend first and foremost upon the power plant, for should | this fail in even the slightest degree the tank is doomed.
 "The British of course knew this: and when it came to deciding upor the engines, Daimler Knights were specified and two 6-cylinder sleeve valve motors were installed in eacf tank to furnish the power
 That, is without question tn, greatest compliment ever paid tn, sleeve valve motor, and is tn, crowning achievement of a long lis of notable triumps which include among others, the breaking of al worlds records, the a.cknowledgemen by European motoring circles tha l the Knight is supreme establish ment of a new British record, estab llshment of new American record adoption by the London Omnibus company, adoption by the Fifth Ave nue Bus company, and the Wescot Express company of New York witt 150 WillysK Knight taxicabs and tn LaSalle Hotel Taxicab company O Chicago with 100 Willys-Knigh cars"

SWoRDLESS SOLDIERS

Though some ancient weapons are being revived. the sword has passed. perhaps forever. Among the symbol of war, and the badge of the of ficer, it has now been banished from the American army. It has been abandoned because it is worse than useless. It is no longer an effective weapon either for attack or defense, and it serves as a dis tinguishing mark of the officer thus making him the prey of the enemy sharpshooter. With far too few trained officers, America cannot af- ford to waste them, and it is wise to adopt the present practice of the armies of her allies.

noisy. In cases of this kind the car grasp the horn and hold it tightly while the car is in motion: if the rattle sub- sides, blame it on the horn.
 Re-fitting Old Pistons
 When an old set of pistons reaches sary, it is sometimes possible to avoid this expense by having the worn set expanded or swelled. The process used for this is by heating the pistons one at a time in a bed of hot charcoal, which completely covers them. The charcoal is brought to a red heat and is then allowed to cool. When the pis- ton is removed it is found to be con- siderably swelled, sometimes as much as .004 of an inch. Fistons so treated are not as good as new ones, but con- siderable expense is saved, and the clearance is returned pretty close to normal.
 Watch the Rear Axle In cars with floating rear axles, which depend upon the hub caps to keep the axle shafts in place, the cars should be inspected occasionally. In | a recent case the hub cap was lost and the axle shaft had started to work | it's way out of the housing
 Making a Wing Nut It often becomes desirable to trans form an ordinary nut into wing nut. This may be done by hammering two strips of sheet steel of appropriate length until they take the shape of the nut and then drill and rivet the ends ttogether.

M otor Warnings

Pain is the warning which the human machine sends forth when it is worn or disarranged and so needs attention. The motor car gives notice of it's ail- ments by making a noise. The we'll built car of the present comes close to being noiseless, and the driver soon becomes familiar with its accustomed hum. An out-of- f-the-ordinary squeak or knock or rattle is a warning of trouble brewing. The wise motorist needs the warning. The trouble may be a loose bolt or pin, part out of adjustment or worn or broken part. If the mo- torist cannot locate and remedy the trouble for himself, he should seek the aid of the repair man before more ser ious trouble develops, or he suffers g breakdown on the road. A stitch ir time saves nine in the garage as wei as in the tailor shop.
