The Things About a Maxwell You Remember 1. It runs endless mileage. 2. It makes a dollar's worth of gas travel a mighty distance. 3. It shies at the repair shop. 4. Its tires seem to last forever. 5. Its upkeep never makes you poor. 6. It never wobbles or creaks in its old age. 7. If you keep two or three other cars you'll drive your Maxwell twice as often as any of the others. 8. It is nevcr thirsty for oil. 9. Your neighbor and your banker re spect your motor car judgment. 10. When yoq part with it, it's like parting with a life-long friend. All ten of which are due to the 300,000-all-alike idea conceived at the time the Maxwell was originated, 5 years ago. The policy of doing one thing and doing it well over a ppriod of years has no better ex ample in business today than the prod uct of the/Maxwell Motor Company. It's the kind of car you never forget.
