We ask you to do s.o just as carefully, critically and systematically as ycu inspected tne competing automobiles. The United States Motor Company is the builder of the Big, New Stylish Maxwell Special. "! It is proud of the car. , " .'. ' ' ' It is confident of its superior excellence. It thinks there is no other car quite like it , or nearly its equal within $500 of its price. But, in fairness to the prospective buyer, this Company believes firmly in the mutual benefit to be derived from a real comparison of automobiles. We think you will gain by such a course, because whefn you eventually do buy, you will know exact ly what your money is obtaining for you in com i parative value. We believe this Company also will benefit, be cause our product is RIGHT. So, we ask every man interested in the purchase of a medium-priced automobila to go over the list carefully and critically. Find out what are said to be the strong points; of each automobile. Also look for the absence of those qualities which you will learn to want in your car. . After going through this little educational course it will not take long come to sea and try the Maxwell Special. . First, let us consider POWER. In what other car, within $500 of the price, did : you find 26 horse; power? v- ; . ' "f-v-z v . In what other car, of the class, did you find an. engine the equal of the' Maxwell Special's-4 l-4: 5 1-4 long strike, smooth-running motor? With its large valves, adjustable push rods, self-contained automatic oiling system, Stromberg carburetor, dual ignition with Splitdorf magneto and batter ies, you have more power at your command than! you would have in any competing car . .. . "Now, as to STYLE. We know you will not find the equal of the Maxwell Special its graceful, beautiful lines, its Columbia Honeycomb type rad iator, deep, black upholstering and the quiet, sup erb finish of Royal green with Wedgwood green wheels. Then, first and last, analyze the price. Unequaled factory facilities of this Company with its fourteen great plants have made the price of tbe Maxwell Special a possibility. ' . We are confident any other manufacturer would lose money on this automobile at this price. We believe you will share this confidence after the comparison. That's the reason we ask you to make it. a The Uoifcect States Motor Go mon council of the city of La Granda Oregon, on the 4th duy of October, 1911, creating Improvement district No. 40 and designating Spring ave nu:, as such district, and in pursuance of a resolution adopted by said com mon council on the 30th day of Au gust, 1911, whereby said council de termined and declared its intention to improve all that portion of Spring avenue in said Improvement district las h:reinafter describe, by . laying tnereon standard board walk on nortu side, the council will, ten days after the service of this notice upon . the owners of the property affected and b;neflted by such improvement, order that said above described improve ment be made; that the ooundaries of said district, to be so improve are as follows.
