World's Lowest Priced Cars tviih Sliding Gear Transmission VERLAND WELLS & CHASE OVERLAND DEALERS ACCESSORIES 317 North Jackson Street IT The biggest month's oroductlon ot six cylinder cart In the history or the Industry was scored In April by the Hudson-Essex organization, according to officials, who an nounced that 24,0UO Hudson and Essex cars were made and shipped Even this production, according to word received by Roy Catching, dealer for Hudson and Essex in this city, was tar from sufficient to meet the enormous demand which has developed all over the country. Mr. Catching said that he could use 50 per cent more cars than are coming to biro, and that he is doing everything in his power to obtain cars for immedi ate delivery. "Our business has been most ac tive all spring", he said, "but it was still further Increased when the price on Hudson Super-Six cars was reduced to the lowest point in the history of these cars. The public knows ot the Hudson Super-Six as one ot the world's fine cars; and this price reduction made it also a car with a most moderate price. The Super-Six coach now sells at less than half as much as the Hudson open lars as only a few years ago, and yet the present Hudson car is superior in every detail to the products of former years. "This betterment In every detail and this reduction of price have been made possible simultaneous' ly because ot the vastly increased Huuson-bssex business. Hudson- "jsex is now by far the largest six-cylinder manufacturer In the world, and is one ot the five com panies In the Industry making l.utii) cars a day or more. "The reduction in the price of the Hudson Super-Six is simply an instance of how the benefits of this great volume of business are passed on to the public. "Better quality, lower prices when possible, and superior value are the keystones ot the policy which have brought Hudson-Essex to six cylinder leadership. The specialization on coaches has help ed vitally in manufacturing econ omy. Ninety per cent of business is in Hudson and Essex coaches- hand, the medium to help it put tire merchandising where it would have to be in the new era of the automobile. So ten years ago people began to read the first U. S. Tire Advertising in their "home town" paper over the name ot their "home town" lemvr. They cava been reading it ever since. They have seen these home deal ers develop their little 'side line of tires" into real business always 1th the support of "U. S. Adver tising in these local papers.

In 1915 there were 2.445,666 au tomobiles In this country. It seemed a tremendous number. Some people were already talking about "the saturation point" being not far ahead. But If there were some men who couldn't see the woods for the trees, there were others whose faith nev er faltered. It took a lot of vision for them to see that the true market for the au tomobile had hardly been touched. It took a lot of courage for them to bank on the ultimate success of the automobile In that market. They had both. Hack In 1916, the United Stales Rubber Company said "The real fu ture of the automobile is not in the big cities but away from them." It Is not in short runs on city streets, but In mile after mile on country roads." So back In 1915 the United States Rubber Company began to prepare for this movement and to help It. In 1915 ten years ago the first U. 8. Tire advertising began to ap pear in the "home town papers. Few people saw these papers in their true dimension. Few realized the Influence they had on what people thought and did and wore and bought Because few !eople realized the place they filled In the minds and lives of their renders. The United States Rubber Com pany saw. As clearly as It saw the develop ment of the automobile It would be In the smaller communities, it saw that the people In theso comrounl- ties would have tires to measure up to the service and tire merchants to sell them. And it saw that In the "home town" newspapers It had, ready to Jl tne sixteen n-uiu'iiB miiui heating, perhaps one of the most i obscure and least thought of is the small pin that holds the paddle I he-1 on the water pump to the shaft. This is a frequent reason for engine overheating, and because of Its very obscureness, Is one of ' th! reasons for this series of ar- ' tides. As everyone knows, the mater , pump Is attached to the water, pump shaft. Within this pump Is a paddle w heel that assists in clr-: culating the water from the radia-1 tor entirely through the water pas-, saee system. A small steel pin , holds this paddle wheel fast to the j pumTi. and many times, after some months of usage, this pin becomes ( worn or rusted, and shears off as smoothly as if rut by a knife. The , pump at once becomes lnoera.j, th watrr does not circulate and the terrific heat of the engine soon t bolls away the water that remains ; J EWETT CAR MAKES i NEW ROAD RECORD Driving a new Jewett.

It was not only designed and built to deliver more, but to continue to de liver more with unfailing regularity. This enduring nature has earned for the Chrysler Six a remarkable distinction. Owners say it is the best built car on the market today because they have driven their cars tens of thousands of miles and are enjoying ; a quality of performance no other I car equals Thesame brilliance.the sameeagerness that astonished and delighted them the first day they drove always un equaled and unfaltering performance.
