"After having been told by resident that living between Nephl andtheEphraim bottom had w could not pass, that (alien out of the road ahead of us, we drove on," saye Fred Brown of the Bottom! company, telling one thrilling performance of tha Essex touring car which b ami another man were delivering to W.

"you, of course, remember the great bllxxard which we had here about two week ago that drove the gnow into every nook and cranny of the great outdoors, bhortly after the end of the etorm, wnen the temperature had rteen ao that every road waa a quagmire, we started with an Essex from bait Lake. "On reaching a place between Nephl and Ephraim we were told by the people there to turn back, for the sudden tnaw tied caused the bottom to fall out of the road. We wore determined to push the Essex through, however, and satisfy ourselves that tho car would stand the Strain. "There was mud, mud everywhere: mud like putty that stuck and clung to the car up to the axles but the Essex cut it like a putty knife will cut putty. Not once did we hesitate In our steady push toward our goal. To show you tha condition of the roads, consider the fact that when we arrived at Mantl wa had lip pounds of mud on our running-boar- d I believe this one of the hardest tesla to which any motor car baa ever been put. There are two other remarkable performances on tha part of Hudson buper-Blxe- a, of which I also have a record. Lon Claflln of this city drove a four-- . passenger, 1817 model Hudson Super-Si- x from Los Angeles to Balt Lake in forty hours, bucking snow arid mud and roads which were declared by many to bo impassible. "Robert Douglas, a banker of Pocatello, Idaho, also drove his Hudson Super-Bl- x down her to Balt Lake at the same lime that I made the record run to Mantt, and, although he struck roads which were at times obliterated by huge drifts which were masses of soggy snow above and Inud beneath, ha succeded In here without miashap and In arriving record 11 - - time."
