SUPER-SIX ENDURANCE
GREATER Than MANS
Transcontinental Run Proves Car Has
Staying Qualities Man Cannot
Equal.

The endurance of the Hudson Super
Six as a machine has passed the
bounds of human endurance in the
transcontinental run. This was not
the case of q few years ago. In the
race against time across the continent
from San Francisco to New York and
back from New York to San Francisco
in the remarkable time Of ten days,
twenty one hours and three minutes
three drivers were used. But these
three drivera each taking his shift
at the wheel, found 1t impossible to
keep up with the Super-Six in its
terrific round-trip across America. 1t
was found necessary to alternate with
reserve drivers for short stretches in
order that the men who were supposed
to drive the car on regular schedule
might get sufficient sleep and rest be-
tween points. This performance indi-
Gated that the time has come when
not one, but many human beings can
be worked to the utter limit of their
endurance in an effort to break a
Super-Six to pieces under the hardest
kind of driving and over all kinds of
roads. Yet the Super-Six proved its
matchIess endurance. 1t came through
the transcontinental round trip in fine
condition. The Super-Six has finish
ed all it's great trials the same way
it has stood up. No amount of punish
ment has seemed to hurt it. 1t will
take years of ordinary driving by
Super-Six owners to determine the
cars longevity.
The Hudson Super-Six will be
shown the the Gate City Auto show,
which opens on Tuesday, by Calkins
e. Orr, local distributors. This car
will be located at booth No. 8.

MARSHALL OIL COMPANY
HAS 1OS MEN ON ROAD
Concern That Started Twelve Years
Ago Has Fifteen Men Travelling
Over North Dakota.

There are very few people in North
Dakota who realize that they have in
their midst a very healthy growing
concern in the Marshall Oil Co. Out
on First Avenue north, one mile west
from Broadway, is located the offices
and warehouse OF this company.
It was a little over twelve years ago
that l.. r. Willard and G. III. Ruth,
who are the president and vice presi-
dent respectively Of the Marshall OIL
Co.. while figpring on extending their
rapidly increasing business cast their
eyes on the city of Fargo. Al site
was procured on the Milwaukee tracks
and business began. Since the start
ing of the Marshall Oil Co. branch in
Fargo, business has increased yearly
due to the fact that it has been our
ambition to serve the public with as
good an article as could be procured
for the money.
The Marshall Oil Co. has 108 men
on the road constantly covering q. vast
area OF territory I'm the middle west
The Fargo branch has fifteen men
covering the state OF North Dakota,
part OF Montana, part OF Minnesota
and part OF South Dakota. The con-
stanfly increasing business Is due. no
doubt, to the splendid corps OF men in
the employ of this company at Far
go.
The local branch is under the
management of W. T.. Seymour, who
welcomes visitors to the warehouses
at all times. During the show Mr..
Seymour states that out-of-town visi-
tors win be especially welcome.

They have a large contract with tbs
Pullman company and expect &c con-
tinue with the line and establish
permanent organization. Owing 10 the
fact that they have found IL ex-
pensive and detrimental to the busl-
ness to change agencies, not only from
the distributors standpoint, but also
from the local dealers standpoint, they
have decided to continue permanently
with the Pullman. They have about
/ 900 cars contracted for with their
agents. but a large portion OF the ter
ritory is still uncovered. They expect
to conduct a strenuous campaign and
look forward 70 q very prosperous

Fargo Automobile show" said Henry
NJ Boehm, of the Werring-Boehm Co.,
The asked us to reproduce, in motif at
least, the two rooms which in our esti-
nation were the most talked of at the
Minneapolis show. You understand
have my own ideas as to which two
rooms were the most beautiful, con-
tinued Mr.. Ball; I wonder whether We
have anything in common regarding
taste for things decorative Every
room was beautiful / answered but
somehow or other Mr.. Werring and /
have a tender feeling for the Peacock
and Bird of Paradise rooms.
Then and there Mr.. Balls estimation
of our ability rose 1000 per cent be-
cause they were the very rooms he had
taken a fancy to. So 20 usee, at your
show here you are having reproduced
in motif, the three rooms which the
estimation OF Mr.. Ball and ourselves
