highways of foreign countries would
enter Into the scheme. Highways

ACADEMY PRESENTS PLAY
“Kathleen" was presented 0 a
very appreciative audience Tuesday
evening by the pupils of St. Alphon-
sus academy at the high school gym
nasium. The play was the result of
long practice on the part of the
students as well as their directors.
The plot centered on the heroffie
Kathleen whose mother had been
cheated of her rightful legacy by a
sinful sister. The mother -in her
deathbed told of her sister and
made the daughter promise to rely
on her for support after her cwn
death.
After the mother’s death the girl
went to her wicked aunt’s bouse,
who had ben changed during the I
yeaers and who welcomed her i.iece
The two nieces of MrS. Roylron
were very Jealous of the new obsta
cle in their path to Mrs. Keyltcn s
riches and planned to have her ar-
rested tor larceny by placing a
watch in her satchel and calling the
police, who searched the bag and
found the missing watch. When
the time came for trial the negro
servant of Mrs. Roylton came on the
witness stand and told of the- plot
to have Kathleen put in prison. On
this testimony she was released Jn
the meantime Mrs. Roylton disin
herited the two sinful nieces while
Kathleen came into her own rights
as the heir to the money, and ail
ended happily.

From 5 to 100 Miles
The Paige triumph is now complete.
Speed—Power—Endurance
When a Taigc “6-66” stock ch assis made the
fastest official time of the reason for the
Pike’s Peak climb, some idea of its amazing
power and stamina was revealed under un
usual circumstances.
When on January 21st the Paige “5-C6”
Daytona model traveled at a race cf 102.C
miles a.i hour, thus setting an official world s
stock can:si3 record for a mile, the ileetness
of the “6-66” wee established.
Wher it 100 different points throughout the
count y 1U0 new local hill climbing records
were made, the power cf the Paige “6-66
became a country-wide sensation.
Now with these new records from 5 to 100
miles, made without a sl op, Paige has incon
testably established its supreme powers of
endurance, as well as of speed. There could
be no feat that answered all questions cf su
premacy with greater finality.
The lesson to the car owner is obvious. No
n 5 to 1 CO mi’t ■, all world’s official speed
’ fox- stc-J: chassis were captured by

, thus, has made a clean sweep and
stands today the unchallenged master of
pnwer and speed- the supreme and unique
'•pie among automotive products for
*
■: stamina and endurance.
When the mile record fell in January, Paige
determined to make the record complete.
With the officials of the A.A.A. racing board
in charge, the tiack at Uniontown, Pa., was
selected and Mulford driving a Daytona
‘ 6-66” stock chassis was off to shatter rec
ords that: had.rer ained unass. liable since
July 28th, 1917.
From there on the Paige came roaring over
the official’s wire with clock like regularity
that ate up the miles greedily. Twenty-five
thirty, fifty minutes went by and there was
no noticeable slackening of speed.
When the Paige thundred across the tape at
the end of the 100th mile the feat liad been
accomplished.
In the most consistent performance ever
recorded the records had fallen. The five,
ten, twenty, twenty-five, fifty, seventy-five,
100-mile and One-Hour records had been •
beaten in every instance by a handsome
margin.
The official figures showed that Paige had
covered the full century in one hour, 6 min
utes and 53.26 seconds, or 89 miles, 1510
yards in 60 minutes—which is just 250 yards
less than 90 miles. The former hour record
was 83 miles.
And now for a brief review of “6-66” history.
CLASSIC
he can find no car on the market today cnat
offers him more than the Paige “6-66.” The
record is complete, and Paige stands as the
undisputed leader of all American sporting
cars.
A Clean Sweep
The first five miles were covered at a terrific
pace, tl: • electric timer recording 3 minutes,
15:48 seconds, a speed of 91.8 miles an hour.

Then take a second demonstration in any

That is all we ask—and we make no pro

We merely want you to know the “6-66” in
