well car always is.
One of Strong Points.
One of The strong points about the
Maxwell is the three-pOint suspension
Of the engine. over rough roads or
even in the city. obstacles throw the
chassis out Of level That happens
often. And when the engine is sus-
pended from four points Il, also, is
thrown out Of true. Now, the three
point suspension dates back to the prin-
ciplc of the milking stool or the tri-
pod. whether it's used over a campfire
or under the camera. II keeps the
thing II supports level And that's
what three-pOiut suspension does for
the Maxwell engine. It's quite a fea-
ture, and It shows the sound construc-
ton of the car
Then. too, that engine is Of a splendid
type. Up TO 20-horsepoweT. the Max
well uses n two-cylinder opposed type.
over 20-horsepOwer, ii uses a four
cylinder vertical type. That shows the
brcadness Of their views. They are not
employing a type because it is some
mans hobby. They have proved that
those two types are the best for the
uses. And so they use both.
Comparisons Are OdiOus
Sometimes an auto is shown with four
/ cylinders and it is said naturally that
| four cylinders are twice as powerful rs
I two. But take the ordinary four-cylin-
