C. W. FRANCIS AUTO CO. Omaha, Neb. 221648 Farnam St. Phono Doug. 853. The Supreme Car With a Patented Motor Patentee Hudson "SSfa-ftelS" Which is 80 More Efficient $1375 at Detroit 76 h. p. From a 5ma, Light Six HAVE you any doubt that the Hudson Super-Six U the greatest car erer built? If o, you should make some tests. Before you buy car for years to come, these are some claims to settle. THE FASTEST CAR The Super-Sii is not built for speed. But speed is one way to prove its efficiency. The Super-Six has made the fastest speed ever made by a touring stock car. MOST POWERFUL The Super-Sig is the most powerful motor in the world with tike cylinder capacity. A new principle, patented by Hudson, has added 8-0 per cent to motor efficiency, This size of motor, at its beat, used to deliver about 4J horsepower, In the Super-fcis it delivers 7(1 horsepower, No other type -Si, Might or Twelve approaches the Super. Si in etficiency. MOST EMWRINC. This vst reaervg power- this add ed 80 per tflnt comes through end' Ing vibration. In the Super-Sig ws stum utter smnhnea, The motor fmtion, whuh caused wtar, is davf d U alnuvet nothing, V'.nejtii hit Is neatly doubled. MPS V J COSOMtCAJ This saving tf (tiki ion means other tcmunmrs. Ths jnmef that was All Other Cars Outrivaled nefe A.

In ordi nary driving the Super-Six is never run at more than half-load. The motor ia never taxed. That means economy In fuel and m wear. BEST PERFORMER The Super-Six will out-perform any other car that's built. It has done what no other car haa done. It has climbed hills on high gear which never before have been climbed on high gear, It excels in quick acceleration. Never was a car ao flexible, Never a car with such bird like motion at high speed. You can prove theae facts in 30 minutes by a ride In the Super-Six. THE CAR YOU WANT The Super-Six is the car you want, if you buy a fine car, You don't want less efficiency, lets smoothness, lest endurance. To buy a car without this motor will surely mean years of regret. Rivals will argue otherwise. Hut find out for yourself, The Super-Sis Is e illusive to Hudson, sa others are bound to question It. If you order now you can get a Su per JU by the time t roads art ready. And it s well oith waiting for. Coins and let us prove that. P..! rtk.aK.e, ( I'l p.ewlt rtv oM kiti.t i w ! 1 GUY L.
