Hudson Supremacy

The Super-Six performs its duties with
such reliance and ease, one is apt to over
look the causes for its supremacy,
Drivers and passengers of a Hudson are
seldom conscious that there is anything me-
chanical in it's smooth transportation. 1t
never obtrudes its mechanism.
So, from time to time, it is necessary to
call attention to the Super-Six motor and

Tt will be wears before we can know the
final limit of Hudson endurance. But al
ready it is evident that endurance is dou-
bled through this exclusive principle. More
than 100000 cars in service and nearly five
years experience reveal the character of
Surer-Six endurance.
The proof is also shown in Hudson's I'M

One Hundredth Anniversary of Moose
River Valley Settlement

In the month of March 1920, Cap
tain Samuel Holden came from Nor
ridgewock with his family and settl-
ed in the Moose River valley. This
constituted the first settlement in
either of the Plantations now known
as Moose River, Dennistown and Jack
man. As matter of fact, Mr.. Hol-
den's nearest neighbor to the north
was at ST. George, Canada, and his
nearest neighbor to the south was at
Caratunk. Already plans are be-
ing laid to fittingly celebrate the one
hundredth anniversary of this i'm
portant event While definite ar
rangements cannot be announced, ii
is expected that the three Plantations
above named will join in the cee-
bration In this family of Captain
Samuel Holden were many children
A very interesting incident is told oil
Otis Holden. who was one year old al
the time the family came to Moose
River. 1t is said this little fellow
was carried on its mothers back from
The Forks to Moose River. she max
ing the distance on snowshoes.
The family endured the hardships
suffered in common by the early pion-
+ GERS of those days, and some of the
adventures are very interesting Oh
course, during the first year they
: cleared some land and planted pc
i tatoes and a few other crops. In
] May of the following year, 1921,
while the father was burning some
! brush in his nearby cutting the ca
bin caught fire and was destroyed with
! practically everything it contained
About all that was saved were few
potatoes, which were buried in pit
and possibly little salt. On these
narrow rations and what they were
+ able to obtain from natural resour-
ces nearby, the family subsisted for
sometime 1t seems however that
occasional droves of cattle were be
ing driven thru from Canada, and
that from one of these COW stray
ed. A few weeks later she made
her appearance at the Holden clear
ing. and with her calf This
seemed almost like an act of Provi-
dence. The animal was taken and
cared for and of course, produced
milk. much needed for the family.
1t will be especially helpful to the
proposed celebration for those
who know stories similar to the
above. about the early settlers, tc
have them sent in for publication
and all are invited to do so.
