 Value of French Serum

Several Birmingham physicians whose opinions carry weight in med ical circles were questioned yesterday regarding the message from Europe that Dr. Degerin of France had pro- duced a serum called "seronol," said to be highly efficacious in curing in fluenza.
 Without an exception. they said that tke results claimed for the serum. when produced. are highly efficscious, but not having yet seen the "seronol" put to use it was impossible for them te comment on it's va.ue.

He Super-Six Motor
 Is Exclusiue

The Super-Sx performs it's duties with such reliance and ease one is apt to over- look the causes for it's supremacy.
 Drivers and passengers of Hudson are seldom conscious that there is anything me- chanica in its smooth transportation. It never obtrudes its mechanism.
 So, from time to time, it is necessary to call attention to the Super-Six motor and its exclusive patented principle, which accounts for this fact.

Thar IS Why no Car Has Eyer Ripalled Hudson s Records

It will be years be fore we can Know the final limit of Hudson endurance. But already it is evident that endurance is doubled through this exclusive principle. More than 100000 cars in service and nearly five years experience reveal the character of Super-Six endurance.
 The proof is also shown in Hudson's unequalled records for speed, hill-clmbing, and acceleration. They cover the field Can there be any question of it's supremacy in these respects?
