for prepared for a somewhat in
creased demand for the Maxwell

pared for the tremendous influx of

Since the new Maxwell prices be-

department of the organization.
This increase has been yreflecte6 in
the increased demand upon Max
well dealers all over the country
The 1916 season was a NEST
prosperous one" said P. c. Redman,
local dealer for the Maxwell COM
,pany, "but if eafly indications count
for anything, the 1917 season will
snrpass anything in tthe history OF

no question but that tho company

london, July 2G-The battle on
the Somme front, which began Sat

since with brief lulls, still is being
fought by British and Germans with
the utmost stubbornness. An indica-
ton OF the Importance the Germans
attach to defending their line is
found in the report of General Haig.
the British commander, and in the
German admission that troops have
been brought from before Verdun
in order TO lend all poss bic strength
to General Won Einem.
The British, if they are making
but slow progress. have been able
to repulse all the fierce German
counter attacks and fully maintain

largely consists of hand to hand
