Impossible To Get So Much Motor Car Value For The Money FIND dm the attitude of many people who come into oai before tbey know anything about the MaweH Not until the Maxwell is shown and demon- ctrated to they lit in it and examine the they ride in perhaps not until they drive it themselves, do they realize what a tremendous value is offered in the Maxwell car.

It is not untisual that Maxwefl value should not be known to everyone, because it is uncommon to find soch a car for a good margin more than the Maxwefl price. The Maxwell stands ahsohitely alone in a highly competitive field, for the amount of value it offers for the price. Appearance lines of the Maxwefl are deddedy attractive. There is no break in the contour from the radiator to the back of the car. The fmders are gracefufly shaped.

Afl metal parts ate enameled or nickel-plated. The upholstery deep and well-finished. From any angle it is a car that the owner can be proud of. Motor engine in the Mzuiwefl car is not equafled by any other four-cylinder engine of its size. And we know of larger and more expensive cars that have less able power plants.

The Max- wefl engine carries its load through mud and sapd or over the steepest grades without a falter. Quality materials in the Maxwefl car are the best that can be bought and the workmanship that turns them into finished peirts is no less exceflent It is only the large production of tho MiunvcP. that makes it possible to put such quality of materials and workmanship into a car selling at the Maxwell price. Economy its other attractive features, the Maxwell is a most economical car to own. Owners get 22 to 25 mUes per gaflon of gasoline and 8,000 to 12,000 miles per set of tires.

And the car is so durably built that repair expense is negligible. We are sure you want a car such as we have described ttie Maxwell to be. If you will give us a few minutes of your time we are sure we can convince you that the Maxwell Car is an exceptional value. Come in today. Touring Car $655 Roadster $635 O.
