Newspaper Page Textcm Consistency YOU want a motor car that will serve you consistently. You want to know that your car can be relied upon day in and day out. You want high mileage per gallon of gasoline and freedom from repairs and readjustments. And you want these things, not occasionally, but continuouslyday after day. On these qualities the Maxwell has made good. It has proved its worth. .When the Maxwell stock touring car set the World's Motor Non-Stop Mileage Record a short time ago it travelled for 44 consecutive days and nights and its performance was con sistent, i It went about 500 miles each and every day. It went within a small, fraction of 22 miles to every gallon of gasoline. It went the whole dis tance of 22,000 miles probably fur ther than you would travel in two years without any repairs or read justments. Every one of eight tires (two sets) went just about 9,800 miles and the others finished in good shape. For consistency and relia bility this record far excels anything we ever heard of. You can get a Maxwell, an exact duplicate of the record breaking stock car, on the partial paymen. plan we have perfected. All you have to do is to make the initial payment, then take the car and pay the balance as you ride. The unusual value of the Maxwell, to gether with our easy payment plan of purchase, is bound to dispose of our allotment of cars very quickly. Better "make your reservation now, delivery later if you prefer. Touring Car, $655. Roadster, $635 .PricaF.O.B.Dtrait I III j C.A. Winetrout m?S j ' , DISTRIBUTORS FOR ' i JiZctrfA i l .

Having received newg that all passengers on the liner Chlyo Maru were safely landed at Hong Kong, after tbe steamer ran aground on Lema Is lands, local offices of tbe Toyo Kisen Kalsha today anxiously awaited word as to the damage done to the vessel. Tbe Chlyo was reported to have been floated, and she will probably be tow ed to Hong Kong, where an examina tion can be made. According to meBaages received at the local offices, a British destroyer assisted in removing passengers. There was no panic One message here said that the re turn sailing of the Chlyo Maru would be "delayed." This gave rise to a belief that the was not seriously dam aged.
