By one of the most amazing exhibitions of endurance ever recorded, this car battered its way six miles up the rugged, snow-clad side of Mount Hood, near Portland, Oregon, and reached a point more than three quarter of a mils beyond I he timber fine. Only the man who is familiar with the di::y height of Mount Hood can fully appreciate just what this achievement means but suf fice it to say that no motor car made in this country or abroad has ever come within three miles of this astounding Paige record. For years, the ascent of Mount Hood has been a favorite testing "stunt" for adventurous automobilists. Cars of all makes and all horse powers have done their level best to work their way up the side of this grim old mountain. But, up to July bth, no car had ever succeeded in reaching a higher point than midway be tween Government Camp and the timber line. rhen, cane the memorable trip of the Paige. This car--a stock model in every respect set out from Portland with seven passengers on Saturday. June 10th. In two days it had negotiated the gruelling climb to Government Camp, and there was awarded the Pridemore Silver Cup for being the first cor to reach the camp this season. Here, surely, was glory enough for any onerar but, not so the Paige. Despite dire warnings from the mountaineers, and almost unani mous prediction of disaster, the nose of that stout hearted Paige was again pointed toward the clouds and the most thrilling -li.v,h n iintomubile history had commenced. It is uiixsiible in this limited space to give an adequate description of the terrific struggle which ensued. But the photographs on this page tel! a story that will quicken the pulse of every man who has a drop of sportsman's blood in his veins. Moat of the time, the Paige was solidly sheathed in ice, and It was necessary to use every ounce of power in the motor to break through the huge snow drifts which blocked the way. And all this, mind you, while the gradometer registered grade as high as 50 per cent. Even the mildest flight of imagination will tell you what would have happened if the motor had stalled if the clutch had slipped if the car had "laid down" for a minute or two while crossing a crevasse 2000 feet in depth. But the Fairfield didn't "lay down." It went on and on up and up until the timber line had been left far behind. And, when further traction was an absolute impossibility, the "Fairfield" stood st an elevation of 9500 feet above sea level. Never in the course of your whole experience, will you have occa sion to demand so much of a motor car. This ascent of Mount Hood was, we frankly admit, a "stunt" pure and simple a merciless trial of endurance an unprecedented test of stamina. But the "Fairfield" went through like the thoroughbred that it is without a tingle mechanical adjustment or replacement of any kind. So, with absolute confidence, we challenge the entire motor car world to produce an automobile no matter what the price may be to equal this achievement of the Paige. The mountain is still there. Very shortly a bronze tablet will mark the spot which that "Fairfield reached 9500 feet above the sea. Is there another make of car in the United States that can stand up under such a gruelling test ? PAIGE - PrvEROIT MOTOR CAR COMPANY, DETROIT, MICH. PAIGE MOTOR BALES' CO. Siilt.ui West.
