Estimating conservatively, half
hour each day is saved the typical

of 312 days this means 156 hours, or

Mr.. Busyperson that q lot can be
done in three weeks.

Advertise in newspapers. Use the

forms of advertising at this time, fol
the burden Of the newspaper message

This is the message that has gone
out from the Hudson Motor Car COM
pany to its several hundred distribu-
tors and dealers throughout the
United States.

turned toward daily happenings and,
therefore, toward the daily newspa-

with history making reports from all
parts OF the world, come all day long

are eager, read. Therefore, Hudson
advertising should appear in them
more than ever.

the gray dawn. Formerly he let it
lie, until he was dressed. Now he
jumps up to read II. The householder
eagerly seizes, the morning paper. He
reads the last edition before retiring
at night. Newspaper circulation has
jumped by thousands. And readers
no longer turn first to the comics and
sport section. World events are
more thrilling than any fiction the
magazines can buy have captured the
primary interest Of the public.
"The newspaper right now Is the
most effective medium possible to tell
the Super-Six story. Readers now
turn to magazines not for stimula-
ton, but for mild digest of news
they have already learned from the
newspapers. Their minds are not re-
ceptive, but digestive, satiated. The
Hudson story will reach them when
the intellect Is sparkling.
Hitherto the Hudson newspaper
advertising has not employed illus
trations. Type has been used to tell
the story, and with truly wonderful
results. But in these intense times the
dramatic appeal is particularly oppor-
tune, and from now on Hudson will
employ dynamic illustrations--illus-
trations with dramatic interest, pic

From thes. figures he deduces that
from 1910 to 1917 the number Of au-
tomobiles increased eightfold, crude
oil production grew little over one
third and gasoline production in
creased eight times. The increase in
gasoline is due to taking greater
proportion of motor fuel from crude
oil and calling it gasoline, and to the
production Of gasoline from pet
roleum residues by cracking. He ex-
pressed the belief that in 1918 1,000,-
100000 gallons of gasoline will be pro-
duced by cracking and that by 1920
there will be more made in this way
than will be distilled from crude oil.
His conclusion is that the develop
ment of this art of cracking will con-
tinue to provide us with our principal
supply OF motor fuel. He even goes
so far as to say that the entire load
is falling on the shoulders of cracked
gasoline, and cracked gasoline prom
ises to make light of its load"
