game preserve by the state, and
some young birds were released

During the first year the game
bird3 fared very well, but there
was no marked Increase in num
ber at the end of the hatching sea
Bon. A decided increase is no
ticed this year, even though a
large number of the birds have
gone to the highlands to nest, as
they are highland fowls. The in
creasing roar of shotguns drives
them on the preserves in the fall.
however, and as no gun is ever
fired on the Koia ranch, -it is
known to birds as a haven of
refuge.

BLIGH
THREE years ago we built the first Jewett car
a Six. It was revolutionary in two ways.
It had about one-third more power than was
ever put into a car of its size. It was sturdier by
hundreds of pounds than other cars of its size.
And it was a Six remember that. Three
years ago it was a sturdy, big-powered Six. It
could outperform and stand up with cars of far
higher price. That was when other makers in
Jewett's price cl. 000 to $1500 offered
dependable but sluggish Fours, or Light Sixes,
underpowered and short-lived.
"Sixes Do Beat Fours"
You remember when we advertised "Sixes Do
Beat Fours." It caused a lot of talk. Fours
were then still considered best in our price field.
Folks admitted a Six was "nicer to handle"
but said : "These Light Sixes dont stand up.",
It took a Jewett to do it. That's what
made the Fours scamper to cover, and they have
scampered fast. Today only two makers sell
many Fours m Jewett's price class. And to be
safe, they have recently brought out other cars
with more cylinders.
How About "Light" Sixes?
And what has become of "Light" Sixes? You
hear of them no more. Folks wanted a sturdy
Six with ample power. Sixes that would last
like Fours. Moderate-priced, moderate-sized,
economical Sixes that would perform like big,
high-priced Sixes.
It took a Jewett to do it. Jewett was built to
prove these things possible to give the public
what it wanted. So Jewett literally ran away
with the field. In three short years the public
has invested nearly one hundred and fifty mil
lion dollars in Jewett cars.
No wonder you ceased hearing about "Light"
Sixes. No wonder millions in equipment have
been sent to the scmp pile to make possible new
cars to compete with the Jewett. But run them
on the coal scales and you will still find them
"Light" Sires hundreds of pounds lighter than
Jewett. Check up on the piston displacement
of tlieir motors. You will still find them under
powered 20 to 30 less power than tho
Jewett.
Now a New Jewett
And to make sure of Jewett's leadership to
keep the Jewett the finest car we know how to
build there is now a Nmr Jewett. Imagine all
we have told you about the old Jewett. Magnify
it with all the superlatives you can think of.
And still you will come short of getting a pic
ture in your mind and eye of what this New
Jewett is and does.
Without enlarging the motor, without speed
ing it up, we have yet increased Jewett's power
20 I We have introduced new spring construc
tion for balloon tires, which makes the Jewett
ride like a car with 125-inch wheelbase this
without sacrificing Jewett's convenient -size
wheelbase.
New Smoothness Silence Beauty
With a counterbalanced crankshaft, chain,
front-drive motor, we have reduced vibration
. and noise as near zero as will ever be reached.
And finally, with new bodies, we have dressed
the Jewett up as beautifully as any car you
have ever seen.
Let us show you a New Jewett either in our
store or at your front door. We want you to
take one for a long drive. Handle it yourself.
Only then will you realize why Jewett will re
tain its lead for many years more why it is
the first choice among moderate-sized cars today.
