We have deliberately set out to make the ‘‘Fairfield" the last word in six cylinder elegance and luxury. We have spared neither pains nor money to accomplish our purpose. When you actually see the wonderful improvements which have been made, you will find it difficult to reconcile so much real value with the greatly decreased price. And, now, let us say a word about “price."” This has been a strenuous season in the motor car field—an especially strenuous season in the light six division. Prices have been slashed right and left. temperate ‘“‘claims’ have been made and it has, perhaps, been difficult for the public to separate the wheat from the chaff. blBut——no matter what the “claims’” may be—the public is concerned first and last with Quality—basic quality— Jundamental quality. ~ So, this is the year of all years when you must inves- tigate and analyze before you finally decide to make your invest- ment in an automobile. Only too often a cut in price means a proPortionate cut in quality. A car, you must remember, can be * the point where ail of the goodness is taken out of it. Therefore, make it a point first of all to critically snvestigate the car which you propose to buy. Pay attention to the Little details quite as well as the big ones. Actually satisfy yourself that price reduction has not meant quality reduction. It is on this basis that we want you to consider the Jfiner material— In plain terms, ask the Paige Dealer to prove to you that the ‘‘Six-46" is all that it ever was—and a great deal more. Or better still, look up a friend who drives a ‘“Fair- field.” Take him to the Paige Agency and let him point out the new improvements quite as well as the old basic quality. Proceed in the same way with any other light sixes that you have in mind. See if they will stand the test of such a critical investigation. Then, form your own conclusions.
