MINES SCHOOL OPEN
FOR LONGER HOURS

The Goldfield School of Mines,
now operated under the state voca-
tional system, this week passed to a
80 hour weekly schedule. The new
Schedule provides for two hours in
the morning and three in the even
ing every day except Sunday. The
hours are from 10 to noon in the
morning and from 6 to 8 in the
evening. The attendance thus far
in the term has been excellent, al
though still small enough to pro-
vide practically individual instruc-
ton for the students. Although
the new schedule provides addi-
tional opportunity for ambitious
students, it is only necessary for
students to attend on such days
and for such hours as their work
permits.

No One Quality Predominates
in the New Hudson Super-Six
Its Four Years Development Results in a
Rounded Perfection That 10000
Ovners of Earlier Models Had Predicted

The names of certain automobiles call to
mind definite characteristics of those cars
Four years ago, when the Super-Six was
introduced Hudson meant motor with II
per cent greater power without added size or
weight.
In another year its emblem, the White
Triangle, marked the winning cars in most of
the leading speedway, road racing and noun
tain climbing contests.
Then the name Hudson became a synonym
for endurance. 1t meant longer and harder
automobile service
The growing number of Husdons later gave
it another distinction. The beauty of its
various types was recognized everywhere.
1t became a familiar object on every highway.
Then Still Another Distinction
In each of these distinctions for which the
name Hudson became symbolic, no forfeiture
was made of earlier advantages. Each ad-
vantage became an additional merit.
The new Hudson Super-Six encompasses all
the wanted qualities. 1t 10 a powerful car.
but every item of its construction measures
up to the standard of its motor.
1t is fast car. but its endurance 10 equal to
any task imposed. 1t is beautiful car, and
every detail in finish and convenience matches
its outward appearance.

For Every Type of User

The new Hudson Super Six is the choice of
the conservative town driver well as of the
hard driving tourist
Those who demand high speed know the
Super-Six will meet any situation. We have
entirely withdrawn from racing, but every
important racing contest includes number of
Hudsons. They are entered by professional
race drivers interested only in stake winning.
The Super Six is their choice car because they
know it's endurance.
The town motorist prefers the new Hudson
Super-Six because of its fiexibility. Itspower
range eliminates the necessity for much gear
shifting. Traffic congestion is avoided because
of the way the Super-Six can take advantage
of every opening. Note how Hudsons with
out the speed limits, slip in ahead of less
flexible cars.
And those, too, who choose cars because of
beauty and dignity because they reflect good
taste as well as utility, prefer Hudsons.
A glance at any general list of Hudson
owners will indicate how it appeals to all
users.
It is not car of single advantage Il
meets all needs.
The way it satisfies $4,000 users, repre-
senting every automobile need, is sugges
ton of its universal appeal.

CH|LDREN'S YEAR REPORT
NATIONS CHILDREN PROFlTED
IN HEALTH BY YEARS CAM
MISREPRESENTATION MOVE
MENT is LAUNCHED.

That the new national consciousness
of children's needs developed by Chill
dren's Year has begun to show per-
manent results is indicated in the an
nual report of the Children's Bureau,
u. S. Department of Labor, which has
just been made public. The campaign
was inaugurated with the beginning
of the second year of the war in an
effort to save babies lives and to raise
the standards for the health, educa-
ton, and work of older children The
work has been done in cooperation
with the child welfare committees of
the Council of National Defense. 1T
is impossible" Miss Julia C. Lathrop,
chief of the Children's Bureau, writes,
''to speak with too much appreciation
of the power of this great body of vol
unteers."
Between six and seven million chill
dren have been weighed and meas
ured. Many local committees have
succeeded in providing follow-up meas
ures to help parents in their endeav
ors to remedy defects which the tests
have revealed Scientific diets have
been prescribed for many of the chill
| dren whose examinations indicated
that they were undernourished. In {
number of places public funds have
| been appropriated for permanent
work for children as result of thu
Ohildren's Year, and many health
centers, parental clinics, travelling
| clinics, and like measures for the
| better care of children have been es
| tablished.
Through the weighing and measur
ing tests, the report points out, gen
eral attention has for the first time
been drawn to the needs of the chile
of pre-school age, long known as thu
neglected age The claims for in
fants and the needs of mothers fo
| better prenatal and confinement car,
have been given wide publicity by loca
