"To tho Stockholders
"The fourth annual report of the
Maxwell Motor company, Inc., for the
year ended July 31, 1917, is herewith
submittod.
"The net earnings of the company,
as shown by the accompanying state
ment of Wost & Flint, certified public
accountants of New York, amount to
$5.507,t)97.01 after deducting a corpora
tion income tax of 2 per cent and with
out any deduction for an excess prof
its tax.
' ' Regular quarterly dividends of
1 3-4 per cent have been paid on the
first preferred stock during the past
fiscal vear. Four quarterly dividends
Bf 1 per cent each, were paid on the
second preferred stock on October a,
1916, January 2, 1917, April 2, 1917,
and July 2. 1917. Four quarterly divi
dends of 2'j per cent each were paid
on the common Btock on Octobor 2,
1916, January 2, 1917, April 2, 1917,
and July 2, 1917.
' ' because of the uncertainty of tho
excess profits tax which is still un
determined by congress, and to con
serve the company 's cash assets and
provide the propor quantity of raw ma
terials for futuro manufacturing opera
tions, it was deemed advisablo at tho
directors' meeting of August 14, 1917,
to pass the dividend on the second
preferred and common stock.
"The number of cars sold by us dur
ing tho past fiscal year shows an in
crease of thirty nine per cent ovei
sales the previous year.
"Tho net working assets of the com
pany and its subsidiaries at tho close
of its fourth fiscal year are $12,280,-
977.05. The inventories have been
taken at actual cost; we have no ob
solete materials of any kind in our
factorios. The present market price of
tho inventory is considerably larger
than the amount shown on the books.
"The American Appraisal company
has iuat completed an appraisal of
our real estate, .plants and machinery
in which it states that these items ns
carried on our books are conservative
and substantially correct. (A copy of
the roport of tho American Appraisal
company is printed in this annual

erties (after deducting depreciation re

have been signed for 32 per cont more
automobiles of all modols than had
been contracted for at the same period

Detroit, 'Oct. 27. "They certainly

said the conductor of a Woodward $ne
car this morning as he glanced outot
the lithographs on a fence.
"Well, I'm tied up with coal Wis
and a lot of new furniture," said a pas
senger who was riding in the rear of jhe
car. ' ' It would have to be a sign as fiig
as a house to jar any bond monc 1ut

The car had just left Forest Avrnue
going south when he made his state
ment. "It would, ehf" broke in an
other passengor. "Well you just look
at that. ' ' The car was passing the sales
room of Thomas J.' Doyle, dealer in
Dodge Brothers motor cars. From the
roof to the ground, 30 feet, and cover
ing the entire front of tne m-rooi
building was a sign, "BUT A BOND."'
It was as big as two nouses.

The car's steady growth in good opinion proves how readily the public ap
preciates real value.
The kind of people who buy Dodge Brothers cars are seldom concerned with
any question of price.
They always think first of its high quality and stability.
The record of its economy and comparative freedom from repair costs comes
as a pleasant afterthought. ' '
It will pay you to visit us and examine this car.
The gasoline consumption is unusually low.
The tire mileage Is unusually high.

ten years ago and has been so success
ful that no changes whatever have
been made in the original plan. It has

We used to say:
"The Maxwell's real greatness is on the insidethe
mechanical parts you can't see."
But the wonderful new 1918 Maxwell has just been
delivered to us.
Now we've changed our tune.
Today we say:
"The Maxwell is great inside and outgreat in
EVERY POSSIBLE WAY."
Always the most efficient most economical light
car built, the Maxwell now has:
A 6-inch longer wheel base, maiding it larger and
roomier.
Heavier and more rigid frames 6 inches, instead
of 3 inches deep and yet is 50 pounds lighter.
Compensating undershmg rear springs the last
word in spring suspension at any price.
A sloped windsshield style of body equal to the
highest priced cars.
Friends, the 1918 Maxwell is the best looking, best
