MAXWELL SHOPS
BREAK RECORD
Automobile Company Turns
Out 532 Cars For Shipment
on Banner Day

B. F. Barker. of the Miller Auto
Co., local distributors for Maxwell cars
received word that the Maxwell Motor
Company, Inc, broke all its records for
production, when 532 cars were turned
out of its big Detroit plant on sat
urday. August, 26th. While this is the
biggest day the company ever exper-
fenced in the volume Of it's output of
automobiles. it exceeded the day pre-
yious by only slight margin. On
were turned out of the Detroit factory.
This is only an indication of the
great volume of business that is being
done by the Maxwell company. There
has been an increase of 100 per cent
in the daily output of the company.
The average production at the Oakland
a day and has been for the last month.
A year ago the average was only 200
cars day.
Maxwell cars followed the generous
reduction in prices on the touring car
and roadster that became effective
able to meet the demand is due to the
fact that increased manufacturing
facilities have recently been installed.
-, All Maxwell cars are assembled in
parts are manufactured in the COM
pany's factories at Dayton, Ohio. and
Newcastle. Indiana. The factories at
Dayton and Newcastle are now sup
plying the Detroit plant with 400 COM
plete units every day
The recent addition of a new pro-
gressive assembly track and a new
body assembly track has enabled the
Detroit factory to turn out cars at an
increased speed. There are now two
progressive assembly tracks and two
body tracks, where before there was
only one of each.
About 10000 cars will be turned
out of the Maxwell factories this year.
Approximately $4,000 cars were manu-
featured last year and the increased
production is ample evidence of the
growing popularity of the Maxwell pro-
duct.
Most of the cars turned out in the
two banner production days were tour
ing cars and roadsters, although a num-
Der of the enclosed types put out by
the Maxwell was included in the allot-
ment.

Notifications in Embargoes

New York, Sept. 2. - Abnormal

Emerson az an Essayist.

Emerson's essays constitute his
continuously popular writings. Virtual
ly all his prose consists Of essays.
Their point of view is uniquely military
and self-consistent. They form pleas
for freedom of personality. All set
forth enthusiastic and constant faith
in the worth of every individual, be-
cause Emerson believed in the inner
goodness of all men, and the necessity
of each of us standing immovably In
himself. He. taught the eternal truth
that men have founts of Joy in them
selves, and quickened faith in the soul.
He stood for the large attitude toward
life. He regarded the whole world as
an expanded circle of brothers. His
message was that of Keats: Beauty
is truth, truth beauty" and he cared
equally for each. He exemplified the
highest function the essayist can per-
form. His Interpretation of life. con-
duct and character is the spiritual and
idealist Interpretation. His judgment
of men was so nearly infallible, that It
seemed that of fate. and proved again
that the man of ideas judges the man
of action more wisely and justly than

that they had a sure thing Of it in
