FAITH IM HUDSO
D. A. Boswell Tells How Drivers Take Chances, Feeling Certain of Machines.
'Hurlincr a ro.irJnr. fl.irnlncr mass rf n'uchlnrry around a p'.jn-lakil 1-rirk oval at a Fprcl of nearly a hundred miles an hour is a sport for Him? mm while It is a Krim busi1 r ss rropo?itIon for others." said D. A. Iloswfll, Hiulcon flralcr. today. ' Hut in any cns, it. is a flirtation uith tlrath In which tho players -:a!: thrir lives anil hoprs of winr.lrm a fortuno on thoir own .kill, tnwrao, knowlodtro of their cars .-Ti l tiie pnduranrp of tho rars themt lv.v. b it iA i,ut natural that no !. of men should know automol'i! s hettrr than racing drivers. "Thrrrforo. the number of the. n,'M who up Huciprns Is a notable trii.uto to thie quality and endurance of the Super-Six. In every case they bae bought their cars from stock, paying list prlco Just like every thor owner And in their rares they HHt ivo no aFsIstaiuo of any kind fr. rr. th factory o;:t.ide of tho scrvr whirh Is piven to any Hudson

Hold Many Heron!. "Despite these handicaps and the fact that thoy compete against .Ieri;4lly Ju ilt racin- machines, driven by professionals with factory backing, these Huiison owners have ben notably successful and have made the Super-Six one of the most popular and feared ears that has ever appeared in speedway, dirt track and road races. Uesides they have annexed more records than have ever been won by any other stock car. "Notable amont: these Hudson owners arc Ira Vail. Denny Hickoy and Ora Halbe all of whom had such implicit contidence in their Hudsons that they entered them in the recent 500-mlle race at Indianapolis competing against a score of specially built foreign and American racing machines. And although every one of these Hudsons was at least two years oid, they all Justilied this confidence, by finishing the race. Vail coming within the money. "Then there is G. X. Patrick of Jacksonville, Florida, who recentlywon the 50-milo free-for-all contest at Pablo Jloach defeating 11 other cars, and John Sabra, who vanquished some of the fastest cars in Arizona last month in a five-mile circular dirt track race. Used Ijy "Weste rn llacer. "Prent Hardin of Dunlap, Calif.. Is another Hudson owner who is a devotee of racing having won four of the live contests he entered this
year. Harding, who was formerly known as the juvenile racing champion of the world, was released from service with the aviation corps this spring and has since devoted his time to racing in the west. "(lenn Breed of Salina, Kans., who has long been a Super-Six enthusiast, also has made much racing history in the middle west holding scores of dirt track records with his Hudson. Breed often drives across country in his racing car, frequently coming off the road just In time to eater a contest without any chance for preparation. "Then thcro Is A 11. Patterson whose feats with his Super-Six have astonished the Pacific coast. AtTacoma, Santa Monica and in the recent Indianapolis contest the Hudson owned by Patterson has made notable records.
"All of which only goes to the esteem In which the men know automobiles best hole. Hudson Super-Six."

TRUCK RUN LIVENED I
1ST
Army Convoy Stimulates Workers and Shows Value of Good Roads.
Probably no other movement in recent years has aroused ruch nation wide interest in good roads as has the transcontinental run of the U. S. army truck convoy, which is now on the last lap of its 3,000 mile trip. Alon? the route of tho Lincoln highway people from as far as 200 miles on either side of the trail gathered at the stopping points to witness the trucks and their bronzevisaged crews. Enthusiastic welcomes greet the men in every city, town and hamlet along the route. Receptions, street dance?, band concerts and entertainments each community endeavoring to outdo its neighbor thus
transforming an otherwise monotonous grind into a continuous pleasure jaunt. At Cheyenne, Wyoming, the caravan was greeted by 300 cowboys, headed by Fred Stone, the renowned "comedian, wno aave a "round up" exhibition. A mammoth celebration is planned at S-in FVancisco where the convoy Ls scneduled to arrive on Sept. 1. Thousands of people have heard lectures by S. M. Johnson, who represented the Lincoln Highway association on the long trip, and by other speakers, on the importance of good roads and highway transportation. At Omaha C. V. King, representative of the B. F. Goodrich Rubber Co.. joined the cavalcade with a movie film taken by his company of the army truck convoy and which was shown in each city along the route on the samo days tho train was there. Thus the people saw the convoy in camp and viewed the movies of it in action. At Mr. Johnson's invitation Mr. King "took the stump" in behalf of ood roads. In introducing his associate, Mr. Johnson said it was not his custom to single out any individual firm, but ho couldn't refrain from commending In public th eoopcration and interest the (loodrich Co has shown in good roads work.

Soldier Who Witnessed Performance in France Writes Letter to Makers.
Compelling evidence of tho warm admiration held for Dodgo brothers motor car by members of the American Expeditionary foroes, Is contained in an endless succession of letters received by the Detroit manufacturers from uniformed men of every rank. More than 14.000 Dodge brothers motor cars served with the American army and tho following letter is typical of the comments of those who ga.w the car in action: "While reading some New York
papers recently I noticed that while other cars were praised highly (in telr advertlsments) for trio gool work done in overseas service, nothing was said of tho Dodgo car. Mad 3 27,WO Miles. "1 havft been over here on active scrvico for a year and have been driving a Dodge brothers sedan for the last eight months. This little car has mad 2 27,000 miles and has never been laid up for motor, trans
mission or any other car trouble. Its work during this time can not h praised too highly. In all the big battles of the Third division, namely, Chateau-Thierry, St. Miehicl and Argonne, tho little Dodge has never once failed to respond. In the last American campaign I have driven it up hills and through roads wher" other cars of higher price were forced to detour. I have been through roads with mud right to th hub cups and places where only tanks and artillery tractors could make their way. Dcscrws DcM-omtion. "I am tmro if decorations were given to motor vehicles on their good work performed in war service, the Dodges that aro on duty with tho A. K. V. would receive thv ll m's snar.
