It is to this vast army of experts that this invitation to examine and drive the car and place upon it their appraisal is made. So emphatically does the Greater Hudson answer their wishes that we leave to them the ver-ilk-t of its beaut)', appearance, performance and value. No car has ever held greater prestige from the standpoint of .value. No car has been regarded as being better on the road or ha ving such a satisfactory motor: In the Greater Hudson you will find that in these as well as other particulars a higher standard is iet. Nogroupofownersis better qualified to judge values. None know so well what smoothness and reliability easy driving and easy riding means. So what they say of the Greater Hudson will be authoritative and con clusive. It is their judgment that we now invite. Ledbetter Garage Adams Ave.
