Great DEMAND NOW
FOR THE PAIGE CAR
Demand For New Six and
Four Brings Prosperity
To the Plant
RECORD SALES AT
THE BIG SHOWS

Twenty-four hours day is all the
Paige-Detroit Motor Car Company
can squeeze out of working day.
but the big factory where the Paige
"six-46" and Glenwood "S6" are made
is taking advantage of every second Of
the twenty-four to meet the demand
for its 1915 models.
Any time is good time to report
cheerful news. but, for obvious rea-
sons, no time is better than now to
be the messenger of commercial good
cheer. 1t is therefore especially pleas
ing TO report that so great is the sue
cess of the Paige Company, so insis-
tent the demand for the new Six
and the popular Glenwood -Four"
that the Inauguration of full "a
hour schedule of three eight-hOur
shifts was recently fond necessary
in order to keep abreast of the or
ders.
The new Paige "Six" was an i'm
mediate success, but as soon as the
automobile shows started the orders
for cars became so heavy, the i'm
mediate sales from the floor of the
shows so large. that the factory would
have been swamped had not heroic
measures been taken. The Paige Com
psny sold more than one million dol
lars worth of cars at the New York
and Chicago shows alone, which Is
believed to be a record, and the en-
thusiasm and practical results at the
other shows throughout the country
continues so great that the twenty
four hour day will probably be main
tanned at the factory for some time
to come.

English rendering that has resulted
in the case of all three names. IN a
curious three-syllabled word. The
banana was originally found growing
wild in the tropical East. but ii is
now cultivated in all tropical and SUBJ
tropical countries. where ii constitutes
one of the principal sources of food.

slight acidity-for its potash salts

joyment OF bananas; so also Is orange
