Reports of brilliant feats performed
by the New Jewett are coming in al
most daily now that the hilJ-climbing
season is on, say advices from the
Paige factory to H. J. Kringle Motor
Co., local Paige and Jewett distrib
utors. The high point so far this year was
reached the other day, according to
Paige officials, when a stock Jewett
touring was driven from Modesto,
to the floor of the Yosemlte valley
sealed in high gear. The feat was ac
complished by W. A. Jones, Tnige
Jewctt dealer in Modesto.
About the same time, it is said, an
other make of car covered this route
and considerable ntir was made be
cause only 3(1 gear changes were re
quired. This car sells for three times
the price of a Jewett. !
Modesto trade officials checked the
Jewett before the start and sealed
the differential and transmission gear
cases. The car took the most difficult
grades and the sharpest turns with
ease and always had power to reserve.
The seals were again inspected on ar
rival at Yosemite.
California motor authorities vouch
for the statement that this Is the
first time this trip has been made
by any car in high gear.
Two more notable hill-climbing vic
tories are among Jewett's list of re
cent achievements, the Paige com
pany's president announces. On Dec
oration Day one of the Jewett sp
cials that won highest laurels last
year showed the best time up a long
and difficult hill at Port Jefferson,
N. Y. At Rockford, Illinois, June 7,
in a contest open to all makes listing
at $2000 or lees, a stock Jewett was
first.
