We are in search of a real, live, wide-awake man who has had busi- ness training, who has some capital, who can sell Maxwell Motor Cars. We are represented in almost 3000 of the leading cities and towns of the United States, and our dealers are prosperous and happy. They should be, and will continue to be, for the Maxwell Car is the unquestioned leader of its class. It is a car for which there is a nation-wide and growing demand— because it represents more real value, dollar for dollar, than any other car in the world. We have no dealer in this locality. We want one immediately. Our representative will call and explain the details of a very attract- ive proposition. Anyone interested should inquire at once.
