WINNETKA TALK a June 5, 1926 Read Why Hupmobile Six Excels Cars Even Higher in Price Hupinobile Six superiority is basic. It is con- clusive. It does not exclude even' cars above our price. Herewith are briefly detailed a few of the features. Rigid; No: whip Crankshaft on 'Hupmobile Six-has a heavy, rigid ¢rankshaft--the kind "too costly for common use. Vibration is eliminated in a six by a rigid crankshaft to overcome whipping and bending, and by a damper to counteract the torsional or twisting tendency of a re- volving crankshaft. Special Windshield Clear-Vision, Ventilating The one-piece, clear-vision windshield ventilates with- out tilting in or out. It raises vertically 'by a hand lifter, circulatingafull-widthsweep of air down into the driving compartment, and straight back into the car when de- sired, as shown by the arrows. Special Vibration Damper-- No vibration damper can do more than eliminate the tor- sional vibration already re- ferred to. And without a heavy, rigid crankshaft such as this engine has, a damper itself means little. The Hup- mobile Six damper is a special and improved design. Newest Upho'<tery in Latest Mode-- Closed car upholstery is a new shade of blue-gray, best described as platinum, in a deep pile fabric. Cushions ~ -are soft and deep, built over . springs which contribute greatly to comfort.

SIX Hanson: Motor Co. 555 Chestnut St. Phone 330 MUST PRESERVE IDEALS, William H. King Tells Budience Here We Must Keep Alive the Spirit of Heroic Dead "What has been térmed by many as the most impressive Memorial Day ob- servance in the history of Winnetka brought several hundred villagers to 'the Village. Commons last = Monday morning 'to join with the members of Winnetka Post 'of the American 'Leg- ion in paying tribute to' those who sacrificed 'their lives in defense of the ideals of 'our 'country. Especially effective on 'the program were the. brief remarks of William 'H. King, Jr., a Winnetka citizen, who gave the principal address. Mr. King made a stirring appeal for the preser- vation of those ideals upon which the nation was founded--equality of op- portunity and political rights. These ideals must be preserved, he said, even at the cost of our lives. Memorial Day is a mockery, he asserted, unless those who participate in its ceremonies have alive within them the same spirit displayed by the dead whom they pur- pose to honor. In his address Mr. King said in part: Beautiful Custom "Memorial Day sprang from a beau- tiful custom, inaugurated by women of the South, of placing flowers in the early spring upon the graves of their soldiers and although in some locali- ties the day is now observed as an oc- casion for commemorating all dead, it nevertheless remains essentially a day set apart for honoring those who died in the military service of the country. "I cannot help but feel these Memo- "MEMORIAL DAY MESSAGE rial Day exercises, this decorating of | teen left his graves, gatherings of this sort, are but friends in the same manner with the mere idle ceremonies unless we who | participate in them have alive within us "the same spirit displayed by the | dead we are here to honor. "They demonstrated at the cost of their lives that there are things wofth fighting for and dying for and I sug- gest. that unless we who approach these exercises, are in the belief that there exist today thifhgs worth more than life itself, this whole' ceremony, instead of being in honor of the dead, is in mockery of them. Must Preserve Ideals "For my part, I am one of those who do believe that there exist today within our government, .ideals which: should be, preserved even at the :cost of. life. Time does. not permit me to speak.of them all, but I should like to mention one which interests me particularly. I refer fo that equality of opportunity and of political rights which is embo- died in our government. The birth of our government brought into the world a conception of equality then un- known. It came as a result of the war. A great and costly civil war pre- served it and some instinct within us which made us realize that it was en- dangered led us into the World War. It is therefore a precious heritage from three great privileges we are at times somewhat forgetful of what a great blessing it is. If, however, we look to peoples who have not enjoyed it and to other generations who did not en- joy it, we begin to see what a wonder- ful thing it is.
