The Paige Policy

Back of every Paige car is definite,
unfaltering manufacturing policy.
Paige engineers are satisfied with only
the best of everything. Most manu-
facturers in the moderate price field
are content, for instance, to equip
with a small type of starting and
lighting system The Paige uses
the large unit Gray & Davis "a
system found on no other car below
the $1,000 mark.
Most manufacturers in the Paige field
are content to use a cone or dry
plate clutch. The Paige is equipped
with the cork insert multiple disc
type admittedly the most efficient
and most expensive clutch construc-
ton known to automobile engineers.

circumstances she could not resist.
She was living quietly in the country
near Shoreham on farm part of
which was acquired for an aerodrome
and later waterplane station was
erected near her home. This proxim-
ity proved too much and Mrs. Butler
soon took up flying, first as a fad. but
as she increased in proficiency she
adopted II as a profession.
Rock Island Argus. (Rock Island, Ill.) 1893-1920, 1914-06-13

adopt the st-regardless of cost
or precedent.
AS consequence, the Paige car is
year ahead of its field today. AS
automobile values go, we firmly
believe that the Paige is the most
remarkable car in America. And
we are not alone in this belief as
the overwhelming demand for Paige
cars conclusively proves.
f you would be convinced, come in
and let us demonstrate the facts.
There is nothing mysterious-noth-
ing vague = about Paige quality.
The ultra refinements are clearly
apparent. They can be seen and
named.
