Newport vis, Corrallis, OF ITS BEAUTY Smartness of Models, as Well as Dependability, Ap. peals to. Owners How did you come to use this slogan "The Most Beautiful Car in America?" is a frequent ques tion asked of Paige dealers and factory men. The first car to bear-the Paige name, a roadster with a three cyl inder two-cycle motor, showed small promise of warranting that slogan. Even in its day it was a sniall car, and though its lines Were an Improvement of the "bug gy" styles of the late 90's it had little pretentions toward beauty above th'e ordinary. V"Most Look Good'V-JTewett PerhAps Its lack of smartness worked against the ready accept ance of this first Paige by the pub lic. Perhaps the two-cycle prin ciple or the lack of strong finan cial, hacking stood on its light. Perhaps a stronger sales effort might have helped it to succeed. At any rate this first Paige was well on the rtfad to a silent grave when H. M. Jewett with the nuc les of his present manufacturing and sales organization took over the management in 1911. Immed iately the three-cycle design of the early years' was supplanted by a car with a four-cylinder, four-cy cle motor. "At last we had a car we knew could be depended upon to run," says Mr. Jewett looking back over the company's early "ays. "I made up my mind it must be as good to look at as it was to drive. We worked and worried and con trived for many a day before we. succeeded in evolving the smart looking challenger model. But when it came out the public liked the looks of it as well a sthe way it ran. We built 10,000 of this model with but few changes in the three .following years and got on our feet in good shape. V Owners Loud in Pra to "After that first experience I made up my mind that I'd never put my O. K. on a car that didn't look as good or better than the best in the Industry. Body engin eers found us pretty fussy people td Work for. r We finished them as wjrtias we built ;m and people at the early shows got to calling, the Paige booth to get a line on the newest developments In body de sign. ..--; "We had been in business quite a number of years before we de cided io advertise in a big way, and had built up.q'ulte a dealer or ganization.' When we finally de cided to use lull pages to tell about our product we sent a ques tionnaire to our , dealers - asking what qualities their owners most appreciated in the Paiges which they bought, . . "Beauty, good look emart ap- pearanoe' nice lines." something- like this while not always first in the list of replies invariably ap peared near the t6p of' evefy one. ""Some people find other ears as attractive as" the Paige; but we be lievi'yorf -win fitid more ; Paige owners enthusiastic Over" the way their ears look than any other-well known 'make." - "That," fcdnclnd ed Mr. Jewett, "Irhow The Most Beautiful .Car irf America got its reputation tor loOks, .' ; PIE IS PROUD Xiapara J. 43.0 Ontrio ..470.2 via Portland.
