No “clash” is heard —and you never “miss.” You can even drop from “high” to “second” at 30 miles an hour. Let upthe clutch pedal as fast as you can move your foot, and Jewett neither jerks nor kills its motor. Such superb handling ease comeslargely from the new Paige:type Jewett clutch. Its driven member weighs less than 34 pounds, one-third the usual weight. So it stops spinning instantly ~—adjusts itself tospeed changes quickly—helps you change gears. And the six olutch springs instead of one, and twice the friction surface of the ordinary clutch, give thasmooth, gradual engagement which prevents jerking or motor stalling. Please try Jewett's ease yourself. THE LASH MOTOR CO., Inc. West Main and Lipcoln Sts. A REPUTABLE CONUERN g Consider these facts — come in and see the Oakland Six Touring $ Car Roadster . .
