Jn Hospital Was Cruel,
Says Divorce Plea.
-eSaxmont, Neb May ."IS. (Spe
- cial.) William Sparks, who was the
first Nebraskan in the world war,
havingr joined the Canadian colors
. in 1914, who was wounded at Vimy
ridge and three times decorated for
gallantry, was no hero to his wife
of 32 V- Mrs. Alvina Sparks.
In testifying today in district
court in her suit for divorce, Mrs.
'Sparks said that her husband
warred on her in their home, beat
ing, kicking rfnd choking her, and
laid down .frequent 'barrages of
, dishes, flatirons and furniture that
' drove her to cover. . ',
Telli of Earlier Marriage.
Mrs. Sparks also bared the secret
of her marriage in 1884 to John
Kinney, when sh was a girl of but
16. She said she left Kinney a year
later in Omaha, when she opened a
letter to him, and found it was
signed by his wife. The Kinney
marriage was never annulled.
"Before and after I married 'Mr.
Sparks, he told me we would forget
all about the marriage to John Kin
ney," Mrs. Sparks testified. "1
burned the letter from Mrs. Kin
' ' ncy."
Sparks Is in Hospital.
' Sparks, who is in Strathcona hos
pital, Edmonton, . recovering from
wounds, has filed a cross-petition
and gave his testimony by deposi
tions. He denies non-support and
cruelty and says he never knew of
his wife's previous marriage.
The couple' separated early in
1918, when Mrs. Sparks fled "from
their log cabin home, 45 miles from
the railroad at Peace River, Canada.

Hudson Fineness Equals
Its Matchless Performance
Aside From the Supremacy of the Exclu'
sive Super-Six Motor, Its Beauty Gives
Distinction in Any Field of Fine Cars
Hudson hat unremittingly kept the issue of
performance to the fore. Not simply .because its
mastery is indisputable. ..
Rather because this question is vital above all.
It must always be so. Jt must always be the meas
ure of any car's title to worth.
Hence undue emphasis 'has never been placed
on Hudson's four years' leadership in fine car
sales.. Largest sales "are not infallibly proof of
greatest merit. Hudson has no need to offer them
as such. N. , " ,
Yet their importance cannot be overlooked.
Here is the massed opinion of far the greatest
number of owners of any fine car in the world
Some are driving the earliest Super-Sixes built
now more than four years old. Some acquired
Hudsons but recently. But how unanimously they
hold no' car can rival it.
What 90,000 Owners y
Know First Hand
Those who have had their Hudsons longest
are perhaps its most emphatic champions. They
know it best.- They have seen , it pitted with
triumph against every situation that can confront
an automobile. Today their SuperrSixes are giv
ing service, such as is literally beyond theper
formance "capacity of many new cars that cost
more. y . ' j - - '--
' ' " , .
Certainly no fine car is so highly regarded by
such a large following.
v Were its position less deserved could Hudson
hold the loyalty of all these? Were its suprem
acy less decisive, surely five years must have
discovered the rightful successor.
' I But tune only brings fresh evidence of Hudson
leadership. A
Its world records in speed in power in ap
celeration in hill-climbing, have never been
matched. They are official and its 7,000-mile run
both ways across the continent in ten days and
twenty .one hours is regarded the supreme endur-
ance feat of motordom. No car ever equalled its
time in either direction. Few have even endured
to finish. None except Hudson ever completed
the two-way, trip against time.
See What It Has Done -
A Hudson stock chassis holds the world's offi
cial stock car speed record of 1 mile in 35 seconds.
Special cars embodying the Super-Six principle ,
won more points in a single year of speedway 1
contests than any cars that ever raced. ,
i Now is added the fonfirming judgment of more
than 90,000 owners who daily see these qualities
expressed in the smooth, uninterrupted service of ;
their cars.
.
Thousands admittedly chose Hudson because
of its acknowledged prestige as leader and author
ity in coach design. Hudsons are famous for thef
beauty and luxurious appointment, hot only in
America, but in Europe, the Orient and South
America. .
- But its chief appeal is in performance.
, And Its Unmatched Motor
Is Exclusive
And do not forget that all Hudson has done
was possible only because of the Super-Six motor.
It gave Hudson 72 more power and 80 added
efficiency, , v
The most abusive tests to which a car was ever
subjected have failed to find its endurance limit.
Could other types adopt it, they might share Hud,
son's unmatched ability. But Hudson controls
it. By right of invention Hudson alone can use it.
It will not be possible to supply all who want
Hudsons. So even though you may not want your
car. for several months, now is not too early to
place your order..
