FINE NEW LINE OF MAXWELL CARS BEING EXHIBITED No Trace of the Former Mod- els in These Sturdy Looking New Designs. Harry J, De Dear, head of the New York Maxwell Company, has sent out 26,000 engraved invitations to motor- ists to view the new and improved Maxwell line which {8 on exhibition at the Columbus Circle salesroom. The cars on exhibition include a touring car, a roadster, a coupe and a| sedan, and it can be said that tho Maxwell engineers have solved the problem of making a low-priced small car look ay good and attractive @@ the big, high-priced cars. | The Maxwell engineers, however, have stuck to the principle that a) satisfactory result can be achieved only by absolute consistency. Their reward is that the car is neither) squatty nor otherwise dwarfed, but conveys the effect desired, and act- | ually looks larger and more com- | modious than its wheelbase of 109 inches implies that it should. There is not a trace of the former models in the well balanced sturdy looking new designs. Though built on the same wheelbase as their pre- decessors, the new bodies are more roomy. In addition to the greater room afforded, the {mproved seat and cushions and the many little Anements to be found in the bodies all add to the greater comfort of the occupants. In keeping with the smart appear- ance of the new designs, ach of tie four models is beautifully finshed and trimmed. In the matter of ap- pointments and refinements, the new series embodies much that Is not commonly found in a car selling at a popular figure, as does the new Max- well. The attention paid to deta(ls of # finish is an outstanding feature, While the bodies account for the greatest part of the newness of the new series, many minor improve- ments have also been incorporated In the chassis. Contributing much toward the sturdiness of the new car's appea:- ance is the larger radiator and higher| hood. Aside from adding to the beauty of the lines, the larger radi- ator also affords increased radiation for the power plant. It carries, fur- thermore, the new name plate of the Maxwell Company, a shield embody- ing the name “Maxwell” on @ white strip, plerced by three arrows. eae egg eee INSTRUCTION CLASSES FOR MOTOR CAR OWNERS. A well known service manager said recently that according to records kept in his shop ‘65 per cent. of all au- tomobile troubles were di to:lack of care or proper operation: ‘This {8 probably because few owners have realized the necessity of really learning to understand the motor ve- hicle, It is because of this need that several automobile schools have been organized in the last few years by automobile con- cerns of high standing. One course, that given by the Btratton-Blise Com- pany, Dodge Brothers’ New York deal- el located at No. 109 West 64th Street, Proved of great benefit to its stu- dents, The course fn Itself required but two nights a week for four weeks and 1s very thorough. In addition to the ragu- lar lessons on the mechanical subjects, | lectures are given by outside authorities on the starting, lighting and ignition system, the storage battery and tires. ‘The next co fts N. No’ $< AID TRUCK OWNERS TO SECURE TIRE EFFICIENCY. | With a view to enabling truck owners to secure greater efficiency from their truggs and to lessen their tire bills, a techWical service bureau was established a few months ago by the United States ‘Sire Company to solve any tre problems submitted by truck owners. In announcing the establishment of the bureau, the company expressed the fear that nearly half the trucks of the country are operating on tires not hest sulted to them. The avidity with wulch truck owners in all parts of the country have availed themselves of the offer of this free tire udvice has demonatrated t nearly every owner has some ape- 1 problem which only a skilled angi- ner is qualified to pass on. Ang truck owner anywhere may address the Tech- nical Service Bureau, United State | tions for all current care, prices of all rire Company, and get the advice of its group of engineers. 47-51 West 42nd St. NEW YORK AUTO DEALERS 10 HOLD CLOSED CAR SHOW {2th Regiment Armory Will, House Exhibition During | Week of Nov. 14 to 19.
