, Val u e
OWNERSHIP of a motor car is
bat a rrieans of an end—and tnat
end is Service. All other considera
tions are of minor importance. Con
sequently, Service is the element that
accnrately determines Value.
When we assert that Maxwell Motor
Cars represent an exceeding value, we
base that statement on concrete and
indisputable evidence of a service
record that stands unparalleled.
Being a matter of vital consequence
to we again refer to this fact:
that a stock Maxwell car conclusively
proved its worth by traveling 500
\ miles a Hay for forty-four consecutive
days and nights without a motor stop
—without motor repairs or readjust
ments— averaging 21.88 miles per
gallon of gasoline.
The World's Motor Non-Stop
Mileage Record, established in Janu
ary, 1916, by a Maxwell Touring Car
is authenticated by the American
Automobile Association. It is not
open to question.
Facts outweigh opinions. Knowing
the lacts your own judgment must
suggest a motor car purchase that will
be an investment for, rather than a
mortgage against, the future.

Maintenance Cost Low
on Dodge Bros. Test
The report of the department of
public works on the individual main
tenance cost of 37 automobiles oper
ated by the department shows the
Dodge Brothers motorcar operated by
.John Dunn was the most economically
driven car in the department. The
statistics include every expense in
curred by the cars from July 1, 1915,
to December 1, 1918, gasoline, oil, re
pair cost, tire expense, etc., and show
that Mr. Dunn's car was operated at
the low cost of exactly two cents per
mile.
The live Dodge Brothers cars used
in the department also are given sev
eral records which place them at the
top of the low maintenance records.
Xot one of the 37 used in the depart
ment was run for the six months at a
lower cost per mile than any one of
•he five Dodge Brothers cars. They
also showed the highest mileage, the
lowest expense on tires and the great
est mileage per gallon of gasoline of
any touring car in the department.
Three of the Dodge cars were oper
ated for the six months without any
expense on tires. On the other two
cars of this make the only tire
expense was for the replacement of
spare tires which were stolen from the
machines.
The report shows many interesting
comparisons of the maintenance cost I
of automobiles which range in cost I
from two cents a mile for the Dodge!
Brothers car to 27 cents a mile for one]
of the heavy duty trucks.
"Such figures are interesting to mo-,
(or car owners and to prospective buy
ers of motorcars," said Thomas J.
Doyle, local distributor for Dodge
Brothers cars.
"In these days of the high cost of
gasoline every one is looking for a
car that can lie operated economically
but it is seldom you can find any own
er who can tell you the exact cost per
mile for the operation of his car.
Such Dodge Urol hers owners who have
recorded the expenses for their cars
have found them exceedingly low
and that they were getting unusually
, high mileage on a gallon of gasoline."

Garretlson Sends Word That
Hi- Has Been Kndorscd
I in Grand Session
Governor Brumbaugh tills morning
| received a telegram from A. B. Gar
! rettson, grand president of the Order
i of Railway Conductors, informing him
thai the order in grand session at St.
| Louis yesterday unanimously adopted
\ a resolution endorsing and commend
j ing him for having demonstrated as
i Governor that human personal right

I Pittsburgh, a candidate for Republi
can delegate on the Brumbaugh list,
I who is now general <*hairman of the
i Order of Railway Conductors on the
i Baltimore & Ohio Southwest systems.
! It recites efforts of the Governor as
i follows: "By his attitude on the at
j tempt to repeal the full crew law in
j the State of Pennsylvania, Governor
| Brumbaugh made apparent his inde
pendence* of corporate control, and
placed under obligation to him every
man engaged in train and engine serv
ice": and, by Ills actions he demon
| strated his belief that the human per
sonal right and interest should take
| precedence over property right and
' interest, thus giving man precedence
I over the dollar."
The formal resolution then says:
I "That the Order of Railway Conduc
| tors in grand division assembled en-
I dorse and commend the attitude and
i action of Governor Brumbaugh, and
| declare their belief that he is worthy
lof the contidence of nil men who
I labor."

'f I ! T HE an^er Six is built to serve discriminating families
I I las a pleasure car. *lt will, if you ask it, go faster than
J ninety-nine out of any hundred car owners would ever want or
dare to drive, but it is not a racing car. Its motor has power
ample to take the car loaded anywhere that any automobile
can go, but it is not a truck. It is a beautifully constructed
motor car with the finest and most attractive of the season's
bodies.
Most flexible and easily handled, full of life and go, richly
upholstered in genuine leather, economical in operation and
free from any hint of experimentation or untried theory, the
Chandler is deservedly the most popular medium priced car in
the whole American market this year.
