Page Two .THE EUGENE QUA'd JEWETT CATERS TO T nocognitioii of throe separate and distinct markets is mudo by the Paige-Detroit Motor Car company, controlling to a Inrgc extent its pul- icy oi mnnniueinre, according 10 woru ' received by the Ilringle Motor com pany from Harry M. Jcwctt, presi dent. Mr. Jcwctt, in several addresses before dealer bodies, at the time of the anonnncing of a new Jewtt six, dwelt at length on the distinction be tween these three markets. The Paige company which was started In liXiU with Icsb than a quarter million dollars capital invested, has grown until it haB today assets of more than $15,000,000. Position Is Strong The genuinely strong financial po sition all through these years coidd not hnvo been maintained, In the be lief of the officials of the company, unless the various classes of pur chasers were definitely grouped and the dealings of tho company carried on with those groups which It had products for. Tho Paige' president told of many conferences held by the executives over these buying classes, lie said In pnrt: "First, we considered the purely transportation class. This includes the buyer who purchases the cheap- nr. fnrm nf frnnarfnptntlnn Tf xvum lt obvious that entering this price class would be like butting our heads against a stone wall. The 'flivver' rules there. "Second, we Investigated the next class: Those who want good com fortable semi-luxurious cars, willing to pay a fair price. The result was thst a car within reach of the pocket book of these people as well as one that would be good enough to entice purchasers of an even greater de gree of wealth. History made in tho 'teens of the twentieth century tells of our success. In 1021, we felt that the time was ripe for something sen aatlonal In that price class. Car la Sensation . ""We gave It to the publls at the start of 1022, In the Jewett six, sell ing at $1005 then. Saying that It waa sensational is putting it mildly. It changed the course of the automo bile industry.

"People nowodays want real re finement in the furnishings of their automobiles," he says, "and they hsve a distinct derure to show individual tsstes, too. This is the rrr.jun that automobile dealers arc no longr: put ting on elaborate equipment, but ra ther they lesve this to the purcbsser. The owner of a new car drives it into the shop of an accessory specialist, and gets lust what he wants." Display Plant Made A displsy that will rival that of the Portland show, snd msy even excell it, will be placed in Stewart's booth at the automobile show, he states. All the necessities of comfortable driving will be displayed, and many luxuries will receive their just share of ex ploitation. Among the latest things out to be shown will be the Boad finder light, a spot light that turns with the steering wheel, and a new parking light that is reslly the door hsndle. The ne light fleshes red behind, and white In front by sim ply pressing a button. Thus not even a bit of room on tho cor is wasted, snd no changes on the body to ac commodate the handy parking light peed be made. Ware Fitted to Cara Among other features Stewart is stressing the fact that all his wares are fitted to cars just as the maker of the car intended. An example of this is his large stock of bumpers, each one of which may be fitted to the holes bored for the purpose by the msker of the car. The "tailor made" accessories are finding (rest favor, since the original frame or structure of the car need not be tam pered with Kdward Ursmel, an accessory spe cialist, bss been added to the Stewart force snd will henceforth be the man ager's "right hand man" says Stew art.

Ed sez he's my organ-ization. He's wrong, he's just the organ. I'm the "ization" because "ization" sticks out like a crank fcom the organ and goodness knows I have to crank Ed before I get anything out of him. This morning Ed sez: "Boss, how come you to turn out such rich, dignified car equipment jobs? There's nothing rich or dignified about you." (All the rest of the morning I've been trying to figger out if I should raise his salary or cut it). Don't forget, folks! Ed and me'll be at the AUTO SHOW, and I want all of you to know Ed, because you're going to hear lots about him in the future. SERVICE WITH A SMILE GEO. STEWART Shoppers Day Special!
