MAXWELL MAKES ITS
1914 announcement

In a three-specd announccment-nnd
without reverse EDglish-the Maxwell
Motor company places three distinct
models before the public as it's 1914
line
A real six-cylinder car without re-
strictiou of the slightest nature is the
most sensational feature of the trio
in consideration of the fact that the
price for the nSix" is under $4,000.
Not much under, to be sure, but enough
under to pay for the freight to any.
point within several days. travel of
the Detroit factory.
II one has any doubts about the 1914
Maxwell "six" being whole car, -
a ride over any rough or hilly road will
convince him to the contrary. The
motor appears to be unlimited IN capa.
city for any unusual undertaking, and
every comfort feature from springs to
unholstery seems 10 have been selected
after the most profound consideration
of the confines Of luxury.
Aside from the ''six, which has a
fifty horse power rating, the Maxwell
power machine at Sl0S5, and twenty
five horse power car Al 500.
Five passengers may enjoy the acme
of comfort in either of these two types,
the chief distinction between them be
ing the question of power. Either can
travel as fast as the law allows, and
the quality of material and workman
ship is such as might be expected from
a factory which embodies every mod
ern facility for the construction of q
down -to-the minute automobile.
That tho public may be given un-
qualified opportunity to inspect the
Maxwell trio of 1914 models. Sales
Manager c. i. Reddcn announces that
he has made arrangements with no
fewer than 1000 agents TO handle the
limo for the season. This immense mum.
Der Of representatives will bring the
Maxwell within few miles Of every
homo In the country, and it may read
lily be seen that the Maxwell company
plans to build and distribute close to
$4,000 cars before this time another
year.
The extremely low price of the TWEEN
tyfive horse power model $3.50 is an
agreeable surprise, and gives assurance
that this model will sell itself in the
face of any kind of competition now in
sight. The public demand for gen
uine car at this figure has been recog-
nized for years. The question has been
to manufacture car without restric-
tions at such low price. This can be
done by the Maxwell company only be.
cause of its unequaled facilities to make
mass play. 1t could not be built IN
small quantities at any such figure, but
the Maxwell company anticipates sell
ing at least 10000 of this model. This
is pleasing news to dealers from coast
to coast.

NEW GAS SAVER IS
CALLED SPEEDLER

The latest gas saving device to at.
tract attention in Salt Lake is the Ly.
don speedler The inventors of this
claim they have at last secured sim
pie and effective device, which never
fails and the price puts it within the
reach of every motorist. II can be in
stalled upon any car, with little trouble.
and once iu place it is guaranteed to
never get out of order The Speedler
spraying device is built upon scientific
principles, and is operated by slight
touch of the finger when it is claimed
it will instantly increase the power of
the engine at least 30 per cent The
speedler people have adopted free
trial system of introducing their gas
saver, that is, dealers everywhere are
authorized to return the purchase price
if ii does not prove satisfactory in every
manner. The Bcrtram Motor Supply
company and Salt Lake Hardware com
pany. Of this city. have secured the To-
cal agency for the Speedler. and both
firms now have them on exhibition at

SRARMAV RUSHED
WITH 1914 ORDERS

With two carloads of 1914 Cadillacs
received this week, all Of which have
been sold and delivered, the Sharman
Automobile company is starting on its
1914 selling campaign with record
never before equaled by this old-estab
llshed firm in Salt Lake City. Three
more carloads Of Cadillacs arc now en-
route from the factory, and Manager
Sam Sharman says he does not think
they will come close to filling the or
ders booked by the time they arrive,
The first model of the 1914 Cadillacs
was received a week ago Thursday
Since that time sixteen orders have
been placed upon the Sharman books
for this car. Mr.. Sharman declares
this is twice over the greatest business
his firm has ever done during this sea-
son of the year. While in the past the
month of August has been quiet one
in the. sale of cars, the Sharman com
pany is this year breaking all records
in business. So great is the demand
that 1t has been impossible to keep a
demonstrator in stock, a customer who
wants a Cadillac and will not wait,
'fgrabbing" them off the salesroom
floor.
The two-speed axle is the one great
feature of the Cadillac for 1914, accord.
ing to Mr. Sharman. This axle gives
INC Cdullidc d lUJdI Ol SlA SpCcQS lot
ward and two speeds backward The
operation of this is automatic, and by
simply pressing an electric button the
axle speeds are changed without any
danger or possibility Of the clashinp of
gears by the operator. 1t is impossible
to make a mistake on the steepest
grades or while travelling at a high
rate Of speed. This feature assures the
practicability of the two-speed axles,
and Mr.. Sharman believes it will be.
come as popular with the motoring
public as the famous Delco starting
device Of two years ago, which revolu.
tIonlzed the construction of the modern
automobile. The two"speed axle, il is
claimed, will cut the gas bill in half
and does away entirely with vibration.
This axle was adopted by the Cadillac
people only after long and strenuous
test, during which time it never failed
to respond to the work placed upon it.
The Cadillac guarantee goes behind
this axle, and Mr.. Sharman is out with
the broad statement that a similar sys-
tenn will be adopted by all the leading
makes in 1915.

AUTO CLUB REPORTS
BUSY TOURIST WEEK
Trans Continental Travel
Brings Inquiries for Routes
and Road Information.

Tie week just passed has been one
Of tho heaviest of the season for auto
tourists. Every day the Automobile
clubs touring bureau at PSI State
street has been besieged with tourists
who are seeking information regarding
automobile roads in and out of Salt
Lake City. Not only has the club IS bu.
reau become headquarters for trans.
continental tourists, but local motorists
are beginning to find out that re-
merkable amount of routing informa-
tion can be obtained there. Conse-
quently nearly every local motorist
wishing to make a trip calls at club
headquarters to seek road information.
Salt Lake has now well established
itself on both transcontinental routes,
the Overland route through Wyoming
and the Midland trail through Colora-
do. Secretary Rishel of the Automo-
bile club has instructed his assistants
TO in all cases to allow the tourist to
take his own choice Of these two routes
Owing to the strong rivalry between
the Overland and Midland trails for
tho tourists business, the club has de-
cided TO treat both routes alike and let
the person who is making a trip take
his choice. In either case, however,
printed logs and maps are furnished.
The club now has in its possession logs
and maps as far as Rock Springs, Wyo.,
over the Overland trail and as far east
as Green River. Utah, over the Mid.
land trail. These were mapped and
logged bv The Tribune-Velie pathfind-
CT. Below will be found a list of the
tourists who have registered at the Au-
tomobile club during the past week: +.
