tables would be almost hopclessly

tween Maine and Massachusetts
would leave Maine an hour too early
and arrive in Maine an hour late.
On the boundary between Maine and
New Hampshire an hour would be
lost or gained as one Travelled east or

NOTE HOW THE ESSEX WAS
DEVELOPED

It's motor is not like the motor used in any
other car. The Essex is not made up OF stock
parts available to any assembler, Every item
was designed and is built exclusively for Essex
in the plant and by the same type OF WorNnen

who produce the largest selling fine cars in
the world.
The Essex was not developed by sub
stitution Of new units for an old model as
house is enlarged and remodeled. Every de-
tail was designed with relation to It's use IN the
Essex in connection with the type and char
actar Of every other detail in the car. Con-
sequently it is properly balanced.

TT Has QUALITY At LOW PRICE

Regard the Essex in the light Of its perform
ance. 1t isn't fair to think Of it merely as q
light weight car, when you consider the quail
ity Of its materials or what it does.
Every owner compares his Essex to the per
Torrance Of large costly cars
Haven't you noticed how everyone speaks
Of Essex performance?
And now they include praise of Essex reli-
ability They tell you how their car calls for
no tinkeIing. Anyone who can handle wrench
can keep the Essex in sweet running condition
Its reliability comes from the sturdlness OF
its construction Particular motorists shhor
squeaks and rattles An unusually strong and
stiff frame minimizes such possibilities n the
Essex.

LOW OPERATING COST FINE CAR
LUXURY

Americans have willingly paid the cost for
performance and riding luxury-for fineness
and distinction, as found only in larger cars:
They accepted the high cost for operation and
maintenance Cars which cost little to operate
did not meet their requirements in perform
ance and endurance. They lacked the stamp
Of refinement and quality they demanded So
thew had but two choices-the large costly
American car or the small and very high
priced imported automobile.
How we'll the Essex meets that need is seen
bv the type of Essex users. Thousands never
before operated SO small a car, and abroad
where the Essex has also made such Roadway,
owners accept it because it matches in quality
and economy Of operation the European cars
they had previously used.
The Essex is appreciated greater in those
countries where gasoline, oil and tires cost the
most.

Everyone knows the Hudson super-slx and
what it has done in winning all worth Whlle
records for speed, aeceleratlon, mountain

But many have overlooked the fact that
those records were made possible because OF
the super-six motor, invented and patented
by Hudson.

ton was it's power, a Y per cent increase Witt

LET US SEE WHAT IT DID

The makers did not know the full endurance
limit of the Super-Six motor. For that mat
ter they don't even now know its limit, al
though it has been put to longer, harder tests
than is ever asked of an automobile, even IN
the most famous long distance races.
This was shown in the 500 mile Indianapolis
race last May for while faster cars We're en-
tered, the privately owned and raced Super
Skies showed a continuous performance OF IN
rivaled endurance
The first Super-Six endurance run was
made when stock touring car carrying driver
and passenger was driven at top speed Tor
one hour and officially established the record.
Then that same car was pushed to greater
tests by driving it with five passengers and
