GAS ECONOMY STUNT
 BEATS R. R. TICkE7 I

The pleased customer is the best advertisement, says Maurice O'Neill of the ONeill Auto &, Supply com- pany,9 local agents for fae- Maxwell and Chalmers cars, ard showed l letter from a recent Maxwell buyer to prove his point
 The O'NeHl people received their first car of 1915 NaxweIls last week. and of course sold them all very soon. One of them went to William Morgan of this city. who the very next day started for the coast, and upon his arrival there wrote a con- gratulatory letter 10 the agency which sold him the car. Among other nice things, he said: The car is simply not to be compared with the Maxwell in any way. The way our. car went up hills and through sand certainly astonished us. This Max. well of ours makes about twenty. miles to the gallon of gas and in driving from Phoenix to Sawtelles we. used only $4.60 worth"
 When one considers that this was. a brand new car. driven over heavy roads, this is, indeed, 9 remarkable record.
 Another carload of the 1916 Max wells is expected in early this week

SILVER CITYS HILL
 vAhQU|sHED AT LAST
Frontier Motordom Gets Excited
 Over Feat by 1916 Maxwell

l SILVER CITY, N. M, Aug. 2S.--- Ever since the first automobile came to Silver City, motorists have bucked the long sand grade of Church HiH and the town has come out to sym pathize. As one after the other failed, the belief grew into being l that the climb simply couldn't be made.
 The stigma of belng beaten by the hill thus removed, drivers began sec ing how far up it their cars would run. In this competition each new car brought to Silver City always has been tried out.
 Several months ago Silver City was startled out of it's calm by a advertised car The challenge stated the dealr's desire to post $100 as soon as any othr competitor would pair to Church Hill and the $20O would pass to the one that could go farthest up the grade.
 The boldness of the challenge took Silver City motorists breath away Rumor had it that the dealer haG based his wager on secret trial in which he had far excelled all prior marks.
 A week ago. J. A. Smith bought 3 brand new 1916 Maxwell. Smith drove his car for a few days and those who rode with him noted the exhilarating effect that always re- suited when put his foot on the throttle Then, late on afternoon, he droppd in at the challenger's place Of business, ascertained the $10O pro position still stood. and covered it. The trial was booked for that even ing.
 Up Church Hill to the stake that marked the highest climb to date, plodded Cactus Charles Buckley, ten double eagles making a merry jn9te in q pants pocket. Along the course Silver City lined up-men, women, children and MeXicans Even money prevailed; the mining element spec ulated heavily.
 By agreement, the Maxwell was tu make the first trial Smith took a long start and tore mp the first part of the incline in second gear. Just before he hit the sand beds. Smith shifted into first. He charged Buck ley at a lively gait; Cactus Charlie leaped into the mesquite just in time Then he started in pursuit yelling like a demon and losing ground at every jump. The Maxwell slowed down at the last sand spot but carried through to the harder going nearer the top and at tine peak. was actually gathering speed
 smith brought his mount to a stand and backed out of the. trail. waving his Stetson to the cheering crowd below.
 The other car essayed the bill in first gear from the start and at a steadier speed. It plowed through the lower stretches of sand in good shape, also excelled the best perfor- nance prior to the contest but be- gan to move jerkily in the heavy going nearer the end, and stopped with about twenty feet of sand sti! to navigate.
 The second and third attempts fell short of the first An effort to rush the lower hfll on second speed as the Maxwell had done, resulted in disaster when quick shift into first was tried. Buckley turned the S2O0 over to Smith and the Maxwell roll ed mai@stically down, unquesticned champion of the grade. Future contests have not yet been proposed, the Maxwell having maGe it plain that better than a drawn verdict can hardly be expected.
