This community has its full share # of people who will soon be driving their first car or a new car to replace the old one. Now, we know that we are going to sell Max well Cars to a great many of these people ? de pending upon how many we are able to acquaint with the merits of the Maxwell. The generous value offered in the car is so evident ? its past record is so full of good perform ance ? owners speak so well of it ? that when the buyer knows these things, he is eager to buy a Maxwell. In order to fell as many people as possible about the merits of the Maxwell Car we are going to spend a lot of money in the next few weeks in this paper advertising Maxwell 1 merits to those who do not know them. The reason ? we want to sell as many Max wells as possible this season. Our future allot ments will depend upon how many Maxwells we sell now. You may know that the Maxwell market is * buyer's market, not a seller* s market ? broadly speaking. The demand for Maxwells the country over is greater than the supply. For this reason cars are allotted to dealers by the factory according to the size o( the dealer's business. We want to make a showing and be in a posi tion to get a generous allotment of Maxwells hereafter. Because the more Maxwells are sold in any community, the greater is the future demand. We realize the opportunity to do an ever-increasing Maxwell business. This is only the first of the several messages we are going to print ? a few days apart ? concern ing the Maxwell Car. But we don't expect to Be able to adequately present Maxwell merits In printed words alone. If yoii are one who is going to buy a new cat you will find it decidedly to your advantage tc find out all you can about the Maxwell before you place your order. ? ? ?? Come in and talk it over with us and let us demonstrate the car to you. Then, don't take out word alone, but ask those who now own Maxwells. Get "posted" about the Maxwell and yotj wiO realize more satisfaction and get more "value re ceived" for your motor car money than evei before. And we are just as willing to have you investi gate other cars just 9a fully as you do ours. The Maxwell will not suffer by the comparison. Why not start your Maxwell investigatior today?
