IT 'lilt 1. 1 UllilSW Automobile dealers in this ter ritory, in looking over their rec ords, are finding that 1925 Is the most successful year they have ever known. In a number of lines there have been remarkable In creases over 1124, although 1924 Itself was considered an active year. The record of the year, it is said, will show that although the public regards an automobile with less wonderment and enthusiasm than some years ago, this has been more than made up by a universal feeling that the automo bile is an every day utility and necessity; . "If you want fo understand something aboiu the automobile business." points out Ray Catch ing. Hudson-Essex dealer in this territory, "Just ask the real estate developer what chance there is for hlra to fell a home which Is not equipped lo houe an aulo moblla or, In the better districts, two automobiles. "The increased business which Hudson-Kseox hae enjoyed Is, of course one of tho bright spots uf the year's records. Month af ter month, Hudiioo Essex sules have continued at an even pace and a consistently fast pace at that. It has had no new cars to Introduce, and Its sales appeals have been on the one point of great all-around value, rather than upon innovations. So, with out spurts or alumpt, It has main tained a consistent six-cylinder leadership. "This leadership Is not Import ant In itself because the motor ist does and should buy new cars on the basis of values in the car, not on the number of sales it makes. Hut when values and snles leadership fall together, and when the sentiment of a commun ity swings so strongly In one di rection as It has In this toward Hudson-Essex, that fact Is Inter esting In guiding the choice of other buyers."
