Two Hundred Million Dollars Represents the amount which the public has paid for previous Maxwells. The Greater Maxwell is now here It is not a New Maxwell. It is in fundamentals the worthy descendant of 300,000 Maxwells that grace the highways of the world. But it is a greater car in many ways. There are the Hot Spot and Ram's-horn, for instance. Then there is a much improved electric system, a new type radiator, a develop ment in upholstery, a far more durable top, and so on. You find in the greater Maxwell a whole automobile show in itself. You will see things developed during the war. It is like a "river of engineering ideas, dammed up, and suddenly let loose." To spend an hour in examining this Maxwell is a rare treat that any one will enjoy and long remember. E. J.
