Best to Be Had Anywhere
on Earth.
Gossip
Along the
Automobile Row
What is claimed to be the tint com
posite motor car in the history of the
automobile has bsen built Official an
nouncement of this remarkable idea for
building motor cars in addition to the
announcement of the first car claimed to
have been created under that system was
made by Guy L. Smith, the Hudson
dealer, when he promulgated the news
of the birth, of the New Hudson "37."
For , two years Howard E. Coffin and
forty-eight designers of international
fame they represent each automobile
building nation have worked on a com
posite motor car, the completion of the
New Hudson "37" marking the new way
for building cars as an astonishing suc
cess. -. 4 . .., , . .
The New . Hudson "37" is a large car,
developing forty-one and one-half horse
power on the brake test It has a long
stroke motor of extraordinary . strength
and previous to its announcement had
performed remarkable feats in the Alle
gheny mountains and , over the worst
road in - the United - States a sixty-mile
stretch between Toledo, 0., and Detroit,
Mich. V 4 ' ' - ' 1 ' '
Among the experts' who took part n
building their composite masterpiece Is
a former Fiat engineer, who was later
with the De Dlon-Bouton and Berliet,
the latter two cars being French auto
mobiles, y ' !
Vaay Experts Help. ,
Another is an English engineer who
has tested and experimented in France,
Italy. Spain, England and America. An
other engineer has been with the Daracq,
Mercedes., English Napier, Belden and
Thomas. At one time he was a very suc
cessful racing drjver. Austria contributes
to the composite car with the services
of a leading designer of that country, a
' specialist in motor design. Still another
1s a man who designed four cars and
I after whom a motor car company was
named.
Another was a Cadillac designer; an
other with the Packard. Still another
, was with the Olds and E. R. Thomas:
Others had a hand in building equally
famous cars of high price. Howard E.
Coffin, their chief, has himself built six
famous cars, more than any other de
signer. He has never created a failure.
All forty-eight are noted engineers and
each has an enviable career. They are
great specialists In the motor car industry
and they worked Jointly in creating this
composite automobile. These forty-eight
, engineers, in addition to their chief-Mr.
Coffin-have had a hand in building
ninety-seven different makes of cars,
over 200.000 motor cars. .
Photographs of their new creation show
it to be a beauty a large, handsome car
that has a. rich appearance. ' If has a
wheel base of 118 Inches.
Ther is nothing to do about the car
that cannot be done from the driver's
seat, for the car Is electric lighted and
electric self-cranking. It is equipped with
a rain vision wind shield, upholstering
twelve inches deep, oil and gasoline
gauges on the dash and every convenience
possible upon an automobile.
CARE IS NECESSARY
V IN CARRYING SPARES
Oftentimes motorists seem to think that
no care Is necessary in carrying spare
tires, says a Michelin expert uncov
ered envelopes are tossed on roofs of
limousines, where sun and rain beat down
upon them. Unprotected Inner tubes are
thrown carelessly into tool boxes, where
they come In contact with sharp tools.
Needless to say, such practices are de
structive. Strong light i very injurious
rubber. So likewise is heat For these
reasons, if nd other, spares should be
kept in cases.
Marble Company ;
After Money Due
Colonel C. F. Meek, head of the Colo-
rado Yule Marble company, marble bud
rf.Mraitnrg an th DoUfflaS COUnty build
lng, called upon the Board of County
Commissioners to ask that his company
be naid another 25 per cent Installment Of
the J102.000 the county Is to pay for the
marble.
Colonel Meek said 7S per cent of the
marble is In place, while the company
has been paid only $55,000, about w per
cent of the contract price. The balance
cf the marble will be shipped within ten
days," Colonel Meek said. 1
Pending completion of the marble set
ting, the county has been withholding
mart of oavment for the work from Cald
well & Drake, general contractors. Cald
well & Drake will pay the marnie com
pany only when the county pays them.
tcow that the work is so near done. Col
onel Meek thinks the county should pay
Caldwell & Drake, so that the marme
company may' get Its money.
The matter was referred to John Laten
ser, county building architect, who will
confer with Colonel Meek and report to
the. board.

work and save sent to Mr. Frederickson
a "log" of the route, and the marks
where the signs have been put up. AU
but about five miles between Omaha and
Kansas City have been marked. Reports
have even started to come in from Wy

and it is expected that before many
weeks have lapsed the entire route from
Omaha to Laramie and Denver will be
marked.

Suppose we deliver a
: "20" at your door
' tomorrow-
Touring time is here ; and you
feel the urge of it
Telephone the Studebaker dealer
and have a "20" sent out
. tomorrow.
It wiU cost you $800 or $885, if
ifs My equipped.
And what will you get will you
get $800 worth ?
Well, we don't know of a better
$800 worth in the world.
We'd say that, even if you judged
it only from the standpoint of
size: and good looks; and
workmanship; and material;
and generous specifications.
But that isn't the main point
The tiling that ought to bring
you to a decision to send for
the "20" tomorrow is the
certainty that you're not tak
ing a chance.
It might be wise to take more
time if the "20" were just a
motorcar.
But it's infinitely more than that
it's a Studebaker motor car.
Seventy-five thousand other
owners have preceded you in
the Studebaker 'testing out
process.
Sixty years of faithful perform
ance have made the Stude
baker word as good as gold.
Enormous productive capacity
and world-wide distribution
make the price right
Yield to that impulse to get a
car at once.
You're made absolutely safe by
that name Studebaker.

dealer.
Take the children with you when
you get the first demonstration

What Run-Cutting
Costs in Tires
An Average Waste of 23 Per Cent
We sent men to a plant which deals with old
rubber. They examined there thousands of ruined
tires, of nearly eTery make.
And they found that 23 per cent of the old-type
tires of the clincher tires were rim-cut.
Some were slowly wrecked by running: soft
Some were wrecked in a moment by ninning flat.
They proved that nearly one-fourth of all tiro
upkeep was due to rim-cut tires.
All Needless Waste
No-Rfo'Cur tires end this Iocs
forever. Out of over 1.250,000 told
not one has ever rim-cut.
All th cost and worry of rim
cutting: is now a needless waste.
la this vAy alone thena patent
tires afford! as average: saving; at
73 percent. ,
10 Oversize
Then No-RIm-Cut tires the
oew-typo tires ere 10 per cent
over the rated sice.
And that 10 per cent overate,
' under average conditions, adds 2S
par cent to the (ire mileage.
That's another saving.
These two features together
No-Rim-Cut and oversize cat the
average tire bills ia two.
200,000 Users
Come 200,009 motor cor owners
have proved out Goodyear tires.
About one-third of all cars osa
ttera. .
As a. result, NoRIra-Cut tires
now far outsell any other tires.
The sale today s 12 times larger
