12 7-Passenger 3-Passenger Phaeton Roadster Every Extra Pound Is a Crudity The HUDSON Six-40 is the lightest /-passenger Six ever built. Most of its newer rivals weight 400 to <3OO pounds more. That is one evidence of HUDSON refinement. Tt is one result of our four-year evolution. It is one of the benefits from J toward K. Coffin's designing. No man can say, "It's too light." Over 10.000 of these cars have proved themselves under every road condition. Half <>t them have run for two seasons. They have covered, all told, at least 25 million miles. And those 10,000 owners, near and tar, will say that this car is right. Heavier cars of like capacity are cruder in some way. They may use less aluminum, less pressed steel. The difference may lie in the motor type. It may lie in less skillful designing. The HUDSON Six-40 weighs 2800 pounds, ready for the road. A car of this type which weighs more is not of equal class. The HUDSON shows the Light Six as it will he All excess weight, which adds to fuel cost and tire cost, must he eliminated to meet the demands of the times. And the HUDSON shows how the Light Six will look after the years of refinement which the HUDSON has had. This finish, this beauty, this •perfect detail will he Light Six requirements. This proved-out car offers many attractions to men who don't wish to take risks. And its very appear ance will show its leadership. ' There goes with it HUDSON service, which is less copied than the car. You will be surprised when we explain to you what this service covers. We invite investigators.

Saxon Company Methods That Insure Accuracy The Saxon Motor Company has just | instituted a plan that provides a dou-j hie check in assuring quality of mate rials and high grade of workmanship in Saxon motor cars. lu addition to a perfected scheme of inspection at the Saxon factory in L>c-1 troit, this concern has gone a step | farther than is customary among an-' tomobile makers. By the new plan, j expert inspectors will he assigned to the different plants where the parts' anil materials for use in Saxon cars are: produced. It is the duty of each in- I spector to sec that such parts and ma-: terials exactly measure up to the spe-I (■ideations called for !>y the Saxon en-' gineers. This advanced and progressive plan ; has been put into effect by the Saxon : Company at a considerable expense, but it is declared to more than pay for itself in eliminating the chance for error in construction and preventing any inferior materials from getting by. •'.lust as double entry bookkeeping is considered 'better than the old single entry style, so double checking in the building of automobiles has every ad-, vantage over a single checking sys- 1 loin," says C. C. Cross, the Saxon lac-I tory manager, in telling of this revolu- | tionary plan. "If a mechanical part or a piece of material is Inspected in its eurl> stages, and then again before it finds a place in the finished product, a qual ity motor car is the assured result. "The inspection of our cars will not he confined to an Inspection before the cars are shipped, but under the direction of the chief inspector, who is one of the most expert experimental engineers in the country, a number of deputies will be placed in the various, plants where the company buys parts.) All parts will be inspected before ship-1 mcnt to the Saxon factory. This' method is a guarantee, to our custo- i tners that our product is right." Notes and Comments From Kelker St. Hall Auto Show William T T: ~'!or, distributor fori (lie Apperson cars in the East is in I llarrisburg during show week nngo-j Mating for a representative for thisi territory. The Apperson car is a pio-! ileer in motordom ,and the new model I (•-45 at $1,485 has the refinements and I class that was needed to make the ear a winner, which in other respects has I proven itself mechanically among the best, in its class. A Pullman small model was sold by the ilentz-Liandis Auto Company. An increasing' number of these are be coming noticeable since this company began nushing the classy little car in this section. The Mitchell chassis shown by Ream! At Son is an exact duplicate of the ca'' | that made the sealed bonnet run ofj I 7..">18.4 miles in thirty days, an average j of 250 miles per day. ! The Winton exhibit is in charge of IC. K. Klinger, well known locally. | Wlnton'a surprise for the year is a new ' six-cylinder model 21A, in four or flve | passenger form and showing general • j chassis design like the model 21, which |is continued practically unchanged ' ;with the exception of the body, which |is a redesignable one. Thus the Win- j' ton Company has abandoned its one i j chassis policy to which it has adhered I for five years. The new six is some- I what smaller than the model 21.

Auto Show by the Mitchell Motor: Company, of Omaha. Their large garage was turned into l a lecture room with blackboards mounted on the walls and all dealers | and auto owners extended invitations' to the lectures, which were held each I morning of the show from » to 12, o'clock. The representatives of the various; electric starting device manufacturers' were invited to speak to the visitors. | display their starters, and explain the! principle and construction by use ofj the blackboard. The interest was manifest. The! garage was crowded every morning by Mitchell and other dealers. Owners; were as numerous as dealers and the! result was that practically every one} attending left with a better knowl-: edge of the electric equipment on aj modern automobile than could ever be gained from a mass of literature. The attendance and the interest of! every visitor tends to further cmpha-j size the necessity for educational work | of this kind among the dealers who' have the owner's interest at heart.; and the owner who really wants to< I understand and take intelligent care! of the car he owns. There are 1«3 manufacturing de partments in the Studebakcr automo bile factories. Two hundred and fifty >j»ung women arc employed to make Studebakcr automobile tops and side curtains. So great is the popularity ol the jitney bus, that fifteen were sold in Kansas City is one week by the Sttule- ; I bukui Corporation. International Models Show Simple Heavy Duty Motor | The new Models "K" and "M" i shown at the motor truck department I | represent the most advanced type in | motor trucks for quick delivery, and j j incorporate features thftt protect the ! purchasers against possible delays. I The International lias a very sini-1 pie, powerful and compact heavy-duty 1 ! motor, and upon this depends the eftt- | Iciency of the complete machine. The 1 j International Motor Trucks are made tin capacities of 1,000, 1,500 and 2,0001 {pounds. It is a well founded fact that the j ! firms delivering heavy loads were the j I first tn adopt motor trucks, because ] the savings was so enormously | lin favor of motor trucks. We have j I reached the period when the light and | ! medium capacity unit truck is being ■ more fully appreciated. The most !reliable authorities agree that about .eighty per cent, of the motor truck {demand is for the small unit trucks ■ as now being specialized by the Inter national .Motor Truck Depart ment. ! The large unit trucks are an o.ngin jeering proposition and shotild be I loaded to their capacity 'both ways on II their trips on account of their dead weight. With the smaller units tlie 1J first cost is less and the upkeep e\- •pense lower. Several smaller units in place of the large one are now being •(generally adopted, and kept in con -jstant service. The ratio of the load to the truck f should be maintained as nearly as pos sible at all times, and tlie solution is jjgreatly in favor of the small unit - truck because they increase this ratio, which means greater profit to the t owner of the several small unit trucks. • Many visitors are inspecting the new ■ modeis at 6lit Walnut street.

OCT OF STKKAM WITH SKI.l'- STARTEM Henry Kennady, formerly a citizen j of Owensburg. K>\, an«l later manage! j of the Studcbaker branch at Oklahoma City, recently had a rabbit hunting: ex perience in Australia, which, strange j as it may scc-m, tested the efficiency of the Studebaker starter. Kennady, who is now managing director of the Studehaker distributing house at Syd ney, started out with four companions to hunt rabbits, using a Studebakor Six. In attempting to lord a hollow dur ing a rain, the carburetor became sub mersed in water which was going through so swiftly that none of the occupants dared set out of the car. The water kept rising inch by inch until the party feared they would be washed away. During a lull in the storm. Kennedy put the car into low gear, throw 011 the self-starter and was able to pull out of the deep hole. The carburetor was then drained :ind the engine immediately fired evenly, taking the party back to Sydney with out further mishap. and CHEVROLET ; Mot or ' At the Automobile Show 11 : Kelker St. Hall. : • !
