For in no other car of either type can you get all these Overland advantages for even a considerably price. - This is because no other such cars are produced on such a scale.

It is u science practiced on an advanc ed scale ut the Maxwell plant, because the builders of Maxwell motor cars know that they cannot buy steel and iron according to the reputation t)f a mine. Not n scrap of mineral goes into the Maxwell product tfeeause someone else lias suid that it is good material. Kverv ounce must stand the Maxwell test, must come up to tho Maxwell standard. Every shipment of raw material is given n most rigid examination, and its ninny as forty -samples of steel am subjected to a Critical analysis every dny. Samples of steel arc scrutinized thru an instrument that magnifies the -sur face from ten to one thousand times- By this process the steel may be exanv ned visually or it may be photographed The instrument usod for this purpose a I.citz-Wetzler camera, an intricate device made is Itermany. Although it magnification permits an enlargement all the wuv from ten to one thousand liumeter, it is seldom necessary to gu above five hundred diameter in deter mining whether the raw material is flawless. The Maxwell laboratory also has it own heating department. This is a heat-treating apparatus iu miniature. It is an electric furnace, in which a tem perature of 2.208 degress Fahrenheit may be attained, and Is used considerab ly for experimental purposes. A dozen experts divide the work be tween the metallurgical and chemical laboratories, the various grades of gaso lino and lubricating oils being tested in the chemical laboratory. All the raw materials that go into Maxwell construction ml Maxwell op eration are subjected to the minutest test in the chemical and metallurgical laboratories. There you find eloquent testimony of the infinite care that goes into Maxwell construction.. We learn that an 'ancient science, it after all, the guiding hand in the most modern of industries; that no great pro ductive business can look for permanent success without exercising the strictest surveillance over the materials that en ter into the composition of its product. The guns and drums of all the mighty cohorts of Work are reinforced by cool, calculating Science. Behind the Brawn is Brain! proval of the large corps of factory womers, ottice employees and snlns men employed by the company. Espec ially in the case of factory workers the insurance has been greatly appreciat ed, as it often happens tliat they are not in position to provide for those dependent upon them in case of their death. A glance nt the list of beneficiaries designated is interesting from the point of appreciation of this insurance. For example, one woman has request ed that the fiOO be distributed amongst her seven children. Doubt less, she fcols that ut least she has now some small protection for those dear to her in case their support is with? drawn by reason of her death. The John Bollman Company who haw established this new scheme, are large manufacturers of cigarettes in San Francisco. This is in line with the many other favorable working con ditions for those employed by them that they have embodied into their new and modem plant. A trip through this modern factory with its spotless tile walls, its light, cheerful working floors, rest rooms, shower baths and restaurant facilities is an education along industrial wel fare lines.
