ing on easy street. Some dea of the
prosperity of the Condon soctlon Is

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.

Your Banker Should Take
Interest IN You as Well
as FROM You
Truer words never were said. You, aa
an American fanner, are facing a new day
a day in which you will be a business
man as you never before have been a busi
ness man, when the financing and executive
side of your farm will demand just as much
of your time and ability as the actual grow
ing of crops and feeding of stock. There is
a great deal of help that .the banker can
give the farmer in this reorganization of
farming on a business basis. We place
primary importance on co-operation with
farmers on real business basis.
