UliijUVll Ur UlUiroaat- throwout the clutch or do
nny other tricks, we want to show
the amount, of gasoline which a
buyer will line in his regular driv
ing. Our recent averages with a
191.8 Hudson are above IS miles to
the gallon, which is .remarkable In
loed for a large, fine-performing
ear like a Hudson. . .
"Of course gasoline economy Is
not the main purpose In buying a
Hudson. A man, . who purchases
one of them wants to go aome
where. He doesn't want to notice
such things as hills. He wants to
command the open road. We are
telling everyone that we consider
Hudson the beat roadlng car In the
world today not Just in conversa
tion but in actual test. Such a
standard of performance Is what
makes the economy so much more
interesting.
"Theso . tests will continue .until
tvo have had an opportunity to
nhow all our friends what they
may expect from Hudson. "We have
shown a good number now, and all
of them have had their eyes open
ed. Old-time Hudson owners who
thought, they know all about the
Super-Sixes have been as surprised
as anyone else. The world do
move." " .
Hudson-Essex Dealer Is
Through Listening to
"Gas" Arguments
"What'll she-do on a gallon of
gas?" The man or woman buy
ing a car these days Invariably aaks
thnt question.
Ed Led be Iter, Hudson - Essex
dealer here, says he is all through
listening to "gas" arguments or in
dividual experiences about the fuel
economy of a 1928 Hudson Buper
Slx. He has fixed up an arrange
ment in a Hudson with' which he
is showing to motorists the exact
mileage which may , bo expected
from the car. V V

A measured gallon of gnno-

Shell Manager
Tells of "Wet"
And "Dry".Gas
"Where do you fln4 the differ
ence between 'wet gnaollne and
'dry' gasoline? In the crankcaset"
says H. U Hull, district manager.
VThat fact, astonishing perhaps
lo you as to muny other motorists,
recently has come out In an In
veHtlgatton of the effect of using
different kinds of motor fuel. Or
dinary gaaollno contains 'heavy
ends and tho oil Industry terms
this kind of fuel, and these satur
ated particles are not consumed.
They collect on cylinder walls and
drain down into your oil, diluting
It, lessening its lubricating value.
"In actual tnsts, It -was found
that oil In a motor crunkense was
diluted nearly 60 per cent when
the car was run with ordinary
gasoline, whereas there was scar
cely any dilution when the fuel
chosen was Shell 400. the dry gaso
line sponsored by the Hhell com
pany. Jt's in tho crankoase that
you find , the answer as to which
is the better fuell
"Hhell 400 has none of the heavy
ends of crude oil which are found
In ordinary gasollno. The name
of this dry fuel ludlcntps why it la
better. Ordinary gasoline Is re
fined by heating crude oil to 43?
degrees . Fahrenheit, and the last
37 degrees of the process extracts
the wet, fog particles which cause
trouble In your motor. Hhell 400,
on the other Band, Is extracted
by heating crudo oil only to 400
degrees Fahrenheit, thus avoiding
the saturated portion,
'Kvery drop of 8htll 400 Is clenn,
dry, vaporises completely when it
goes Into your motor, works, when
the motor is cold as well as when
It la hot, and operates smoothly
at traffic speed as well as on a
long fast run. ,
"foul because Shell 400 Is dry,
it is good fuel in all temperatures,
winter or summer. There's no
waste more of Shell 400 goen Into
mileage and less Into the crunkenso
than If you used un ordinary gaso
line 'Modern motors especially need
a dry fuel like Khell 400. They
operate at such speeds that pre
heating necessary to consume wet
fuel Is impossible. Going Into the
cylinder completely vaporized.
Shell 400 produces a maximum of
energy under every operuting condition.'
