Low "Up-keep'' Carburetor
The carburetor used on the Maxwell was espec-
tally designed for it after long and severe tests
under every conceivable condition. Economy tours
conducted by hundreds of dealers and owners in
different sections Of the country have proved it's
efficiency, its quick response to throttle and its
extremely low consumption lof gasoline. It has
been termed the low up-keep" carburetor.
Reversible Steering Gear
The greatest margin of safety has been pro-
vided in the steering gear of the 1915 Maxwell.
The Maxwell irreversible steering mechanism is
of the expensive worm-and-gear type and its
periority over every other type lies in it's many
adjustments. At no time is more than a fourth Of
the bearing surface of the gear which operates
the worm in use. When needed, a new bearing
surface may be had by adjusting the gear a quarter
Of a turn. In short, the Maxwell steering gear
has four times the adjustment Of any other kind.
Heavy Car Confetti
What surprises most people is the smooth, buoy

pull the out of any mud sand. The Maxwell
has three-speed selectve sliding transmission
because Maxwell engineers do not consider any
other type to be worthy of the Maxwell
Double-SheII Radiator with Shock
Absorbing Device
The Maxwell radiator is Of handsome design
gracefully curved, and il is built to be trouble
proof 1t is the. expensive double she'll type and
has ample cooling capacity. The radiator is
mounted to the frame by means of a shock alb
sorbing device each side which relieves the
radiator of all twists and distortions the frame
caused by roughness of the road The shock alb
sorbing device also minimizes the possibility of
radiator leaks.
The Roomy Full 5-Passenger Body
Adjustable Front Seat
The 1915 Maxwell has full grown 5-passenger
body. The front seat is adjustable, you move
it three inches forward backward. This makes
the really comfortable for the driver. No
cramped legs for tall people uncomfortable
reaching for short people Most drivers seats are
made to fit anyOne-so fit

NAVY IN SECRET PRACTICE.
Middies Given Hard Scrimmage by
Coaching Staff.

ANNAPOLIS, Md, November "a
While watchmen kept all but naval peo-
pie away from the field yesterday after
noon, the midshipmen were given a hard
scrimmage under the direction of Head
! Coach Ingram and his staff Practice
also will be secret today and tomorrow,
the latter being the last workout on the
local gfounds. While the backfield which
Saturday has been practically settled,
! doubt remains as to the final selection
of the forwards, particularly in view of
the poor. work of some of them against
Ursinus Saturday.
Lieut.. Ingram stated that he would de-
eide upon the occupants of these posi-
tice on the three remaining days. In
view of the unsa tisfactory work of the
line, the chances of injuries in practice
will have to be taken, as nearly every
man needs attention before entering the
final contest.
The linemen who are reasonably sure
Of entering the Army contest are Ward
and Gilman at the tackles and Kercher as
one of the guards. E. R. Smith and Hol-
man are contending for the other guard,
Johnson is slight favorite over Jack
son for right end, and Van Heimberg
seems to have the call over Blodgett on
the other flank, but the latter did some
excellent work against Ursinus Satur-
day. and has still a chance of being first
choice.
While Craig, Westphal, Davis. and Mar
tin Is the backfield combination for the
first attack against the Army. the work of
VAN has attracted the coaches favor
able attention. and he is likely to be first

line except Quarterback. --

HARVARD HAS ADVANTAGE.
Daily Princetonian Claims Crimson

PRINCETON, n. j., November 23.-That
Harvard enjoys distinct advantage over
both Princeton and Yale in the schedule
of the football games between the three
colleges at the end Of each season was
the subject Of an editorial in the Daily
Princetonian, the undergraduate organ
Of Princeton University, yesterday. Both
Yale and Princeton have their big games
on successive weeks, while the Crimson
between the Princeton and Yale games
plays a comparatively minor game which
she never has any difficulty in winning.
mostly with second-string men in the line
up. The article reads:
Harvard can perfact a system for
Princeton use 1t to the limit and throw
into the contest all her strength. She
then has a fortnight in which completely
to recast her plans, point them for her
other big game and recoup her forces.
at would seem sportsrnanlike and Just
for the Harvard athletic authorities to
agree to let Yale and Princeton enjoy
turn and turn about in this undoubted
strategic advantage. Harvard would
win the Appreciation Of the Princeton and
Yale men. and her glory would be the
greater on occasions when she Is the con-
OuoroF." - T7r-

fear all over him. -
.He knows I am over here and he's
hunting for me-" thought Peter on.
dear, what shall 1 do? 1t is long way
to the nearest bralnble-tangle and don't
know of single hollow log or hole any
nearer 1 wish I'd stayed at home That's
what dol wish I'd stayed at home;
He crouched down. making himselr As
small as possible under the thick prancn
out with eyes wide with fear. Nearer
and nearer came Old Man Coyote. Peter
sat tight 1t Vas the safest thing to DO:
He jut. longed to run, but II ne snouio
him An a Hash, and Peter knew how Old
Man Coyote can run. So he sat tight.
though it was the hardest kind OF hard
work He held his breath. Old man
Coyote was SO near that Peter was AFRAID
he would hear the humping or his hear.;
And then Peter gave a soft little sign OF
relief. Old Man Coyote had passed with
out 80 much as glance his way. IN iac.;
Old Man Coyote was watching the pond
of Paddy the Beaver, and his eyes fairly
burned with eagerness. Silently. but
swiftly, he stole along He was making
his way around to the other side OF the
pond Then Peter understood. He was
after one of those geese. who. fast asleep.
W
other shore.
Peter was just trying to make up his
mind what he Ought to do when ms
wabbly. little nose caught familiar scent
breath while Granny and Reddy Fox
passed They, too, were stealing along
very softly, with their eyes fixed on the
pond. They made their way around the
other end Of the pond from the one Old
Man Coyote had gone around.
Peters heart went ptt-a-pat. pit-a-p1l
with excitement What should he do?
What ought he to do? II he should thurnp
and try to waken Honker and the other
geese he would give himself away; Would
he be able to reach the nearest bramble-
tangle before Old Man Coyote or Reddy
Fox could catch him? Perhaps those
sleeping geese would not drift any nearer
to shore, and then they would be safe
and he would not need to give warning.
Perhaps they would not hear him even
II he did thump, and he would run all
that dreadful risk for nothing. Anyway.
there was no need Of doing anything just
yet.
or three of those sleeping forms drifted
nearer and nearer to the other shore. BY
and by they were SO near 1t that Peter
knew that something must be done at
once or it would be too late. Somewhere
over there three pairs of hungry eyes
were watching those geese just as he was:
Peter made up his mind. He would
thump and then he would run with all
mis- might.
the ground with all his might, and hoped
it would waken Honker. Then without
waiting to see he started for the nearest
as fast as he could go.
Slap! That was the tail Of Paddy the
Beaver hitting the water. He had heard
Peters thumps and knew what they
meant. And at the sound of that slap
Honker the Goose awoke:
