It happened this way--the Max
well Motor company was putting on
its four-reel drama, From Molten

In st. Clair. The little city was all
excitement. for word had reached
there OF the great success which the
pictures had attained In other cities
and the whole populace waited anx-
iously for chance to see what the
Maxwell company had to offer.
The show was grand success.

every side. Many interested auto

ond show and the Maxwell dealer
In st. Clair remarked to newspaper
reporter. Il have never been 30 pop
ular In my life before. The pictures
have certainly made great hit
here and as result have already

The owner OF the theater was
helpless to save the windows when
the crowd pressed to the doors for

for the damage done, guess the

.20,63S FORD CARS
SOLD DURING AUGUST
Nearly 800 Per Cent increase
Over Same Month One
Year Ago

Twenty thousand six hundred and
thirty-eight Ford cars were sold dur
ing the month OF August, this year
This IL not production ngure, bu,
the actual sales made during the
month. On the other hand, Il does
not represent orders received. for the
Ford Motor company is still thou
sands OF cars In arrear OF orders re-
ceived. IL represents, therefore, 90.
638 delivered sales.
These figures are extremely sig
nificant. They mean that the sales
for August. 1914, are almost 800 par
cent more than August last year, That
Is, in August, 1914. the Ford Motor
company sold. In round numbers, T..
SAT cars. When II Is remembered
that August Is always the !. highest
month OF the year in sales the fig
ures take on a new meaning. The
real significance In this larger vol.
ume Of sales lies In the fact that II
encourages the faith that the Ford
Motor company will reach Its goal OF
600 200 cars for this year.
When the company announced the
new profitsharing plan whereby the
buyers OF Ford cars between Angus:
LIST Of this year and August 1st, 19I.,
were TO receive rebate Of from 81
to $50, In addition to an immediate
reduction In price, provided 100000
cars were sold within that period,
there was doubt expressed by some
unfamiliar with the nature of tile
Ford business that such large sales
could be attained. That the Ford
company knew what II was about and
was not lacking In conservatism or
sincerity. is proved by these August
sales. To increase the sales OF the
dullest month by 300 per cent indi.
Gates that the demand Is present for
the 100000 Ford cars, for II August
jumps that much what will happen
when the sales really get under way
In the real selling months?
The excellent condition OF Ford
business revealing as II does extracr,
binary growth. 10 not due to sudden
expansion In any particular direc-
tion, but results from an advance II
along the line. In some sections Of
the country there has been. as Is well
known, q falling on IN motor car
sales. In these sections the Ford has
more than held its own. Thus In Cal
ifornis. where Ford sales formerly
represented one-third Of the total au-
tomobile sales of the year, they now
represent one-half of total sales.
or course the announcement OF the
new prices and the new profit.sharins
plan for owners had Its effect in slim.
ulating August business, but the
greatest stimulant for Ford sales Ia
the $4,000 Ford cars now In service
and which are to be met with on
every highway In the world.
