"A strange nnd wonderfut war!" writes
n 'oldlcr. "Through all this tumult of
snclls, horribly nenr to their bursting points,
a military band Is playing! It Is playing
meny tuneB, as in a country fnlr.i wliero
aiay-tlme lovers dance. And all this sceno
about mo is llko such a fair, with gypsy
tents nbout and hobbled horses browsing,
and n smell of run-scorched grass min

"Ono would not expect to find dead bodies

a tent with two men who know nnd show
by their eyes and by the way they listen
all the time that at any moment death may
spill them over tho teacups.
"It was very beautiful last evening when
tho sun sank in a tide of gold nnd tho
snatiowa lengthened ncross the Cojcul lllver
and gradually tho fleld of battlo paled In
a milky. -radiance of twilight."
Tho lighting done by the Australians de
serves high praise. In particular the
lighting at Bullecourt Is bound up with the
Australian troops, who broko through tho
Hlndcnburg line to tho right of this Ullage
and held on to their positions with tho most
amazing carnage.
When I hear of thoso things, tho tragedy
of It all seems as great as tho glory of it
But through all the record of these
dajs there shines tho spirit of Australian
youth, those long-limbed hoys of the South
ern Cross who never would yield, and who,
surrounded on all sides, yet kept the enemy
nt bay.

Pay no need to bursting phella on either

A friend of mlno has sent homo an ac
count of a skirmish between airmen and
earth men on the wtstorn front
"A queer thing happened In tho sky

all tho Allies' aircraft fly homo to roost
after lone Journeys of adventure over the
German lines, some of them with holes In
their wings and somo with broken wires.
"I watched thoso home-going flyers from

bluo fields of tho air above white-cloud

above tho noise of the guna.
"They had earned their rest, but did not

"These droes of aeroplanes did not con

Down through the streets of Goatvlllo
ent Billy Bumpu3, his mouth watering

loins to have for a good, squaro meal. It
eemed to him that he never would get
enough to eat after he left tho army.
By and by he came to tho parado ground.

wliat was his surprise to see that the

ch. lis thought perhaps the committee
M left them that way so that Billy could
not reach them.
Wnat did he care !
n v mors ho tnousht of the whole matter,
Jf- Hungrier he became, until he went off
row the woods to think It over. "I tell
JW, there Is nothing like getting off by

wui "',turned his head quickly and saw

"'i on the limb where ho was seated.

.J fw everythlng that happens ln this
jWty of the country," said Mister Jay Bird.
aow why you are here now, too j If you
think I'm not a wiso bird, just try to cat
thoso ropes on tlio Hag pole."
Billy thought of a perfectly grand Idea.
"I s.ay," he began slowly, "why don't you
get hold of ono of those ropes and have
a llttlo swing?"
"I will, If It will please you. or If you
want to mako ono end como down so that
you can cat It," replied Mister Jay Bird.
"You aro tho wisest bird I ever saw I"
exclaimed Billy enthusiastically.
"Do you think I am wiser than the owl?"
asked the bird.
"Far wiser, my dear. Xow, trot, or fly
over and see what can bo done with that
rope," said Billy, his mouth beginning to
water, at tho thought of having such a
long ropo to eat.
"But I mus. have an Inducement," an
swered Mister Jay Bird.
"What's an Inducement?" asked Billy.
"Is It something to eat?"
"You must mako It worth my while
you must pay me," replied Mister Jay Bird.
"If that Is true, pretty bird, name but
tho price, I pray thee." ventured Billy.
"Wheo ! Where did you get that beautiful
language?"
"In tho army."
Mister Jay Bird was silent for a time,
nnd then said: "I guess I will pull the
ropo down for you If you will say to mo
very slowly You aro a smarter bird than
tho Wiso Old Owl!'"
"You are a Fmarter hlrd than the Wise
Old Owl," said Hilly quickly
With that the bird flow over to tho flag
pole, alighting on one of the ropes. The
Jay Bird's weight made one end heavier
than the other nnd soon the rope was run
ning through tho pulley at such a rapid
rate that It dropped to tho ground as soon
as Mister Jay Bird got out of the road.
Billy started to eat the rope, but, try as
ho could, It stuck In his mouth.
What DO you suppose was tho matter?

First Place in the Free-for-all Secondly Seventh and Ninth Places'
in the 250-mile Sweepstakes made by Hudson Super-Six Specials
iiu j
250 Miles---Average Speed
. (Unliko'other cars entered in the Memorial
Day Races at Cincinnati, the Hudson Super
Six Specials were not designed as racing cars.
They are the regular stock Super-Six Cars
with changes that increased their speed and
made them moro suitable for racing, but that
have not altered their design,
to All that was done to these cars could be
done at nominal cost to anyone of the 36,000
Hudson Super-Six Cars now in use.
Not Built to .Win Built to Endure.
y There were many cars entered that were
admittedly faster than the Hudson. But the
speed a car shows for a few laps is not always
an indication of what may be expected In a
250 Mile grind. "
Hudsons are matched against the specially
designed racing cars that they may prove
their endurance. Whatever position they fin
ish in is duo to their ability to maintain a high)
speed without mechanical break down. w
The Supef-Sijc motors are 3V by 5 inches
in size xactly the same Size a3 tho motors
used in "all Hudson Super-Six stock ? cara.I
Most of tho racing cars in the" sweepstakes
event have larger motors than the SuperSIxes
and the'ears weigh from 500 to 700 pounds
less than the Hudsons. Most of the cars en
tered "bear .names that are not known in the
field of pleasure cars. They are built solply
for the purpose of racing. Hudson racing
cars are built to (show Hudson engineers how
to build better Hudsons.
What 'McgriBe Expected of Stock
Super-Sixes.
All tests made by Hudson Super-Six" Cars
indicate .what may be expected of any Hud
son Super-Six Stock Car.
Hudsons made their fine showings at Cin
cinnati by staying in the race when other and
faster cars were compelled to drop out.
That is what you want of an automobile.
You want a car that will not break down
under stress of any service you will ever im
pose, i
Of course you aro not buying a racing car.
You will never want to drive 250 Miles at a
speed of 101 Miles an hour. You won't ever
want to cross tho continent in record time
and then turn around and make the round
trip in 10 days, 21 hours. That is what a 7
Passenger Hudson Super-Six did. &. And you
iles Per Hour
don't "want to drive 1,819 miles in 24 hours
afc a stock Hudson Super-Six Chassis did when
it broke the 24 hour record by 52.
But you want a car that will keep going as
long as you will ever want it to go. j What
the Hudson Super-Six has proved in endur
ance in speed trials and what was proved in
the Cincinnati races by the Specials, far ex
cjel in severity any test that anyone is ever
likely to make.
. - .
Any car will run well for o time on city
Boulevards. , Any car will show good speed
for a time. But what the car will do under
rough usage and what it will do in a grind
equalling that of the speedway are indica
tfons of what it will do in years of service.
" You would have been firmly 'Convinced or
Hudson endurance had you, seen th.e Super
SJxes at Cincinnati.
- Don't think lhe Super-Six is aracing car.
But racing cars must stand up under the
hardest service. We arc merely proving that
the Hudson Super-Six is an enduring Car.
That it will meet every service task without
disappointment or expense is what these tests
prove.
