THE ACTUAL MILEAGE
ON A GALLON OF GAS
“What’ll she do on a gallon of
gas?” The man or woman buying
a car these days invariably asks
that question.
E. B. Rohrer, the Hudson-Essex
dealer here, says he is all through
listening to ‘gas’ arguments or in-
dividual experiences about the
fuel economy of a 1928 Hudson
Super-Six. He has fixed up an
arrangement in a Hudson with
which he is showing to motoriss
the exact mileage which may be
expected from the car.
A standard Coach has been se-
lected. A measured gallon of
gasoline is placed in a container
and connected with the pipe run-
ning from the vacuum tank to the
carburetor. The engine is then
idled until the gasoline is drawn
from the carburetor, and then
started from the measured gallon
of gasoline.
“On a typical test,” says Mr.
Rohrer, “we drive from our place
of business through the city, mak-
ing all proper stops, and then
take the open road at about 25 to
35 miles an hour.
“We do not pinch the carbure-
tor down, inflate the tires abnorm-
| ally, coast, throw out the clutch or
do any ‘other tricks. We want to
show the amount of gasoline
which a buyer will use in his regu-
{lar driving. Our recent averages
with a 1928 Hudson are above 15
miles to the gallon, which is re-
markable indeed for a large, fine-
performing car like a Hudson.
“Of course gasoline economy is
not the main purpose in buying a
Hudson. A man who purchases one
of them wants to go somewhere.
[He doesn’t want to notice such
things as hills. He wants to com-
mand the open road. We are tell
ing everyone that we consider the
Hudson the best roading car in the
world today—not just in conver-
sation but in actual test. Such a
standard of performance is what
makes the economy so much more
interesting.
“These tests will continue until
we have had an opportunity to
show all our friends what they
may expect from Hudson. We
have shown a good number now,
and all of them have had their
eyes opened. Old-time Hudson
owners who thought they knew all
about the Super-Sixes have been
as surprised as anyone else. The
world do move.”

CATS ARE KILLERS;
DON'T NEGLECT THEM
“The cat that purrs so content-
edly after it has been fed is at
heart a killer and if neglected will
become one of the most serious
menaces to game animals and the
birds,” John B. Truman, secretary
of the Board of Game Commis-
sioners, said today. Truman urged
the people who own cats to make
provision for feeding them during
the annual vacation of the family.
Cats, Truman said, if left un-
cared for or taken into the coun-
try soon revert to the wild habits
of the undomesticated members of
their tribe. Such animals are to
be blamed for the killing of many
insectivorous birds and much cf
the small game.

Health Talk
WRITTEN BY DR. THEODORE
B. APPEL, SECRETARY OF
HEALTH
“There appears to be a some-
what misguided notion concerning
the advantages of a vacation. Many
sensible people who are entirely
thoughtful concerning the holiday
season and thus choose rest, quiet
and invigorating change, conclude
that two weeks of that sort of life
will keep them running efficiently
until vacation time comes around
again,” said Dr. Theodore B. Ap-
pel, Secretary of Health, today.
“It is quite true that a com-
plete rest in the woods, country
or at the shore will do much to
tone up a tired system. but the
advantages are soon lost if one re-
turns to his daily task and at once
becomes indifferent to the funda-
mental iaws of health.
“Nature is highly recuperative.
But if the benefits on the return
are to be permanently enjoyed
more needs to be done than can be
accomplished by the application of
the finest kind of care and jude-
ment in the choice of the annual
fortnight’s outing.
“While it is perfectly proper to
consider that one is more than or-
dinarily wise and discreet to choose
a sane and sensible outing as a-
gainst the tiring and debilitating
one so popular these days, that, af-
ter all, is but: the beginning of the
matter. The tanned cheek and the
inward glow of health soon fade if
negligence asserts itself upon ar-
riving home.
“The vacationist who returns
bubbling over with vitality and re-
newed vigor must realize that
such a pleasant state of physical
affairs can only be maintained by a
daily effort on his part.
“One of the pleasant facts in
nature is that the laws controlling
health are not obscure, difficult or
even hard to follow. Unfortunately
however, easy as are the health
rules, it is easier to disregard them.
And that is exactly where most of
our trouble arises.
“Why not make this year’s vaca-
tion yield the biggest possible
health dividends? To do this choose
the proper type of vacation to be-
gin with and then watch your step
conscientiously and daily after it
is concluded. This is the way to do
it:
1. Exercise, plenty of it.
2. Fresh air, all you can get
day and night.
3. Food, sufficient but never too
much.
4. Sleep, at least eight hours
each night.
5. Luxuries, a minimum of
ther.
6. Tea, coffee anil tobacco, all
in moderation.
7. Worry, eliminate it.
8. Happiness, cultivate it.
9. Play, certainly.
10. Work, hard and plenty.
“There is nothing bitter or diffi-
cult in the above prescription.
Take it, follow it every day until
next summer and learn what the
advantages of a real vacation, pro-
perly followed up, can do for you.

CAR OWNERS CAN DO
A LITTLE FIGUREING
One dollar 2 day—$363 a year—
is what the average automobile cost
the average American motorist in
1927. At least that is what the
figures complied by the American
motorists Association reveal.
Operation and maintenance of
his car cost each motorist $229,
figured at
$136. Depreciation was based on
age retail price of $953 for the
year.
Fuel and lubrication represented
44 per cent of the operation bill,
of $101. Mechanics charged $47
for their time while replacement
parts totaled $41 and the tire bill
was $40.

The enormous spread of Essex success is due to an accumula-

fectly obvious te the ordinary buyer as well as the expert.
At $735 and up you not only get the brilliant performance
