NUMBER 90
NEW BUSINESS IN NORMAN.
The United Sales Co., who have
several stores at different points in
Kansas and Oklahoma, are opening a
branch store in the building: recently
vacated by the Bowling Grocery
store. This firm will carry a com-
plete line of furnishing goods, cloth-
ing and shoes for men, women and
children. The policy of this store
will be to handle all medium priced
goods, and owing to the fact that the
company make their purchases for
their several places of business at one
time, they are enabled to buy at a
much better advantage than they
could otherwise. And in this way
they are able to at all times furnish
their customers with shoes and cloth-
ing at a much lower price than they
have been accustomed to pay. The
room is about ready for occupancy and
a portion of the goods have already
arrived. Announcements for the open-
ing day of this business will be made
later in the week. Mr. Glenn E.
Porter, of Wichita, Kas., and T. J.
Hinshaw, are the local managers for
the new concern.

MRS. SHACKLEFORD'S FUNERAL
The great respect and esteem in
which the lady was held was evi-
dence by the large attendance at the
funeral of Mrs. Pauline Shackleford,
which was held at the M. E. Church,
South, this afternoon. The services
were most solemn and impressive, but
without ostentation! just such as she
would have wished. They were con-
ducted by Rev. M. L. Butler and Rev.
R. L. Ownbey. The floral tributes
were numerous and beautiful, and a
large concourse followed her to her
last resting place in I. 0. O. F.

band.

We Can Save A Few Men $175
On the HUDSON SUPER-SIX
Note These Important Facts
Prices Will Advance Soon
We have have just been notified as follows about coming Super-Sixes:
There will he no change in models. The only changes, if any, will be minor refinements, lint this year's produc-
tion is nearly sold out—both of open models and enclosed. The new production—starting December 1—will be
built from materials contracted this year, at enormous advance in cost- And. to maintain present standards, those
cars must cost 317•"> more.
We Have Cars Yet to Come
We have some cars due us at the present price.
Some open, some closed. They will be sold at present
prices while our allotment lasts. After that, every
car shipped to us will cost the higher price.
.You can save that difference—$175—by buying your
Super-Six now. And you'll get the same model as
buyers get who buy after December 1.
Consider that fact well.
The Fair Hudson Policy
This is another striking evidence of the fair Hudson
policy.
The Super-Six is a monopoly. This marvelous motor
—adding 80 per cent to engine efficiency—is a Hudson
patent.
Its supremacy is unchallenged. It has won every
world's record which can possibly prove any quality
you seek in a motor.
It has made the Hudson the largest-selling fine car
in the world. Yet this year's demand was hardly half
supplied.
Still this car has been sold at a minimum profit—at
a price far below cars of lesser performance. The only
advance for next year is the added cost of materials.
And that advance will not apply until these materials
are used.
Next Year Will be a
Super-Six Year
The Super-Six this year came in as a stranger. It
was like all strangers, received with some question.
The next season will start December 1 with 25,000
Super-Sixes running. And with 25,000 enthusiastic
owners.
It will start with performance records, which prove
that this invention has doubled a motor's endurance-
It holds all stock-car records up to 100 miles. It holds
the 24-hour record of 1819 miles. It won the Pike's
Peak hill-climb against 20 famous rivals. It holds the
ocean-to-ocean record—San Francisco to New York,
made in 14 hours, 59 minutes less time than the next
best record.
Next year the Super-Six, with all these records be-
hind it will hold the peak place by itself.
Save by Deciding Now
It you want such a car—even next year—you will
save $175 by deciding now. Never again, in all
probability, can you buy a Super-Six at these prices.
Come and select the style you want before we sell all
our allotment.

DODSON IN THIS COUNTY.
Mr. Geo. H. Dodson, Republican
candidate for congress will hold meet-
ings in Cleveland county at the fol-
lowing places on dates named:
Moore, Friday, Oct. 6th, at 2 p. m.
Wheatland, Friday, Oct. Gth, at
7:30 p. m.
Lexington, Saturday, Oct. 7th, at
2 p. m.
Noble, Saturday, Oct 7th, at 3:30
p. m.
Denver, Saturday, Oct. 7th, at 7:30
p. m.
Mr. Dodson is now regarded not as
a purely "Republican" candidate for
congress, but the "Farmer-Business
Man's" candidate, for he is really a
business man and farmer—one of our
kind of people. He is a man who
"does things" and is imbued with a
real hope and trust to "do things" for
farmer and business men. The strong
points of his candidacy is that he was
a farmer boy, grew up on the farm,
tilled the soil with his own hands,
and is still a farmer and stock
raiser. And, too, a successful busi-
ness man.
In Payne and Logan counties,
where he held meetings last week,
large audiences attended and the ut-
most interest was taken in his ad-
dresses. At Crescent, Okla.. more than
1000 attended his meeting, the last
of four big meetings that day.
Mr. Dodson is going to give Joe B.
a run for election, for his record is
clean and clear and honorable. He is
entitled to the vote of all who desire
a real congressman to represent the
5th district in congress.
Investigate his record and remem-
ber him on Nov. 7th. You will vote for
a man who will thoroughly represent
you if you cast it for Geo. Dodson.
