Paige owners have enjoyed the
pleasing distinction of driving motor
cars that have, from the very begin
ming, pioneered the way for beauty
and elegant appearance" said Lou
Sutton. Pendleton agent, in speaking
of his popular car.
'The pride of ownership built up
among thousands of owners is a trib-
ute to the artistic genius of Paige de-
signers who set a whole industry to
initiating their body designs, which
nave been growing more distinctive
and nearer artistic perfection each

cit is not surprising, therefore,
that from such an organization should
come the tina refinement of exquis-

ly belongs the title of THE Most

claim-not a mere well-sounding
phrase. Paige prestige and success
would not permit us to make so
startling and sweeping an assertion if
there were ever a shadow of a doubt
hat the new Paige models would
themselves not only substantiate but
emphasize every word we state.

PAIGE CARS HAVE ALWAYS LED

dorsement-'The Most Beautiful Car
in America
Amy detail of Paige body design
will stand the test for beauty. for
harmony. and for practical utility.
You can begin at the front with its
racy. pointed radiator, and follow the
smooth, graceful lines all the way to
the full, beautifully rounded back.
and you feel that mere is a motor car
that expresses art in its highest and
truest terms.
In the enclosed models there is a
rare combination Of unusual motor
car beauty and motoring luxury.
THE general body designs have all
the characteristics of Paige design az
well as utility and a'few distinctive
features of their own.
The divided, pointed. slanting
makes our new enclosed models very
individual. Luxury is written all over
them-luxury that is the result of
good designer fine materials-of
painstaking workmanship and the de-
sire to build a car that would answer
any demands under any conditions OF
season. climate. weather or roads.
Paige has achieved a reputation
for setting the pace to the Industry in
artistic appearance of motor cars, in
addition to having Paige cars recog-
nized as the "Sstandard of Value and
Quality"

taught car owners the folly-measur-

John wilkinson, designer of the
Franklin car, is of the opinion that
people are going to exercise even
more careful discrimination than at
present While Mr.. Wilkinson reg
ognizes that the seven passenger car
has a logical, thouhg comparatively
limited field, he also points out the
frequency with which cars of this
type carry two to five passengers only
very seldom to full capacity. He
terms it an economic loss to provide
for a very ~infrequent emergency with
a seven-passenger car, when a nor
mai a is never more h five pas

No doubt this point of view is re-
sponsible for the Franklin touring
car being made strictly for five pas
The Franklin Company has
analyzed very closely how their car
should be constructed to give certain
well-defined results in safety, COM
fort, economy n reliability. They
claim that any compromise with sev-

affect these elements that it would
practically defeat the utility of the

INTRODUCING

convince you that we would not and
could not make any such claim unless
it were substantially correct.
Our entire reputation and position in the
motor car industry depend upon the
accuracy of our public u~tterances.
Knowing this, it is not likely that we
would voluntarily assume responsible
ity for a statement which could be re-
futed to our everlasting discredit.
II, though. you are still inclined to doubt. please
remember that Paige has been one of the truly
creative factors in the motor car industry.
From the very beginning our body designs have
been absolutely unique and refreshingly dis
tinctive.
If imitation is the most sincere form Of flattery,
we should indeed feel elated, because il iN gem
orally admitted that Paige designs have served
as the models for practically every quality car
in the industry.
Nothing could more %strikingly emphasize the fact
that Paige has always built beautiful cars-and
can be logically expected to produce-"The
Most Beautiful Car in America"
So far as the mechanical features OF our product
are concerned. you need only consult the thou
sands Of owner records which have been estsb-
lished during the past seven years.

"The Most Beautiful Car in America"

At the Pendleton Automobile Show we
shall introduce for the first showing in
the state of Oregon what we sincerely
believed to be the most beautiful car in
America.
This, we admit, is a bold and sweeping
statement.
1t is probably the most sensational an
nouncement that has ever been made
by a manufacturer of medium priced
automobiles.
But we mean precisely what the words
imply, and only ask that you reserve
final judgment until you have seen the
Paige exhibit with your own eyes.
1t is not our purpose, in this advertise
ment, to describe one single detail of
the latest and greatest Paige Achieve
ment.
We merely invite you to attend the Au-
tomobile Show-key your expecta-
tons up to the very highest pitch
and determine for yourself whether or
not we nave been guilty of exaggera-
ton.

They have been developed by the ripest engt-
neering genius that the industry affords.
In them, we have Incorporated every improve
ment. every refinement, that could possibly in
crease the efficiency of a smooth running. ever
dependable motor car.
As We have said time and time again you can only
expect to get out of an automobile precisely
what the manufacturer puts into It.
There Is no substitute for basic quality. To build
the truly great Things in this world one must
work with his Heart quite as well as his HandA
But for the present. we are going to say no more.
When the doors of the first Automobile SHOW

THE WAR Is ON.

AS the days go by we are grad
ually coming to believe that the Unit
ed States is at war. Our American
boys are being captured and killed
in battle, on sea and on land South
ern homes are in mourning for the
boy that sleeps in grave in IL for

prisons. And the end of it al is not
even discerniblc in the remote dis

part in the conflict? We cannot 90
to the front for obvious reasons. Is
there anything we can do to Tighten
the burden of those in the trenches?
Those at home, "the men behind the
men behind the guns, have been asked
to loan the government several bill
lion dollars to he used for the benefit
of the troops. They have done so
cheerfully. But this is not "giving"

is only one way-deny ourselves of
some uXury-even necessity, that
something, much or little, may be
added to the food supply of the ma
ton.
The people of Virginia have been
so accustomed to "high living" ex-
travegant living-that they do not
know how to economize. MANY of
them would not do so even if they
know how. Broadly speaking, every
pound saved in any manner whatso
ever, is contributing just that much
to the general fund. One hundred
million people, saving one pound of
Hour or meat, or sugar, means a
hundred million pounds saved Not one
family in fifty that is not eating much
more than they need, and more than

way as suggested can we help win

Where the PRODUCTION of any par

steadily rising tide of feeling along
these lines, the danger signals of
which are flying fully in the faces of

The American people are the most
patient in the world in the face of
exploitation for private profit, but
when hundreds of thousands of the

reckoning for those who attempt to
turn these sacrifices to private profit

so.
There should as certainly be the
