No sales genius could have put this over. Nothing but startling quality, and perform- ance at the price, could have done it. There are plenty of average satisfactory quality cars around Jewett’s price, yet look at Jewett's first “;hy'! Surely it is wise to learn of Jewett’s qualities before you buy 17 months! Why? any car. First, Jewett offers a powerful, sturdy Six at the cost of a Four. Jewett is the only car in the thousand dollar class built by a maker of highest quality cars at $2000 and upwarde. The Paige-built Jewett Six isa Paige-designed product through and through. Paige-built motor, Paige-type clutch and transmission, Paige-Timken axles, Paige ball-bearing steering spindles, Paige high-pressure oiling system. Paige performance —the ability to pass most any car on any hill—the pick-up of § to 25 miles an hour in 7 seconds in high gear —the flexibility to go 2 to 60 miles an hour in high gear—are characteristics of the Jewett which have won it friends everywhere, And Jewett, like the Paige, is easy riding in spite of its moderate size. It rides easily because its springs are 80 per cent of its wheelbase, be- cause it is a stoutly constructed car—200 pounds heavier—and will not bounce around. Jewett handles as no car ever handled be- fore, because %t has but 117 lbs. weight for every horsepower. You do not realize how powerful Jewett is compared with average cars until you raise the hood. Jewetts fifty horsepower motor fills the hood. You cannot imagine an emergency which such a car woulcf not out-maneuver. A ten-minute ride in a Jewett, with your own hands on the wheel, will tell you more than all the engineering facts or sales records in the world. You're welcome to drive the Jewett whenever you want—as far as you want—to prove to yourself the Jewett Six is not only the dominating car in the thousand- dollar class, but so fine a car that few need to pay more.
