MAXWELL WINS
BIGCANADA PRIZE

In drizzIing rain and driven by a
private owner a Maxwell has just cap
tured the most coveted prize in Can
adam motoring circles.
Just three weeks before the annual
Ottawa Jouran Reliability Tour. d. 4.
Grant, an insurance agent, purchased
a Maxwell touring car. Despite the
newness of his car and the fact that
many expert drivers and more pow
erful cars were entered against him
Mr. Grant had such confidence in the
Maxwell that he challenged every en-
trant on the tour for hill climbing
honors.
On the Lake Placid road six miles
below Malone he drove his Maxwell
over Chasm Falls Hill In what was
even better than a perfect score. His
Maxwell time was 80 40 seconds and
the official perfect score had been pre-
viously announced as 1 minute and %
seconds
There were twenty-four cars in the
contest AID at least twenty OF them
cost more and were larger than the
Maxwell. It was a dangerous day
for a hill climb with a steady drizzle
making the crooked winding incline
slippery and difficult.
IS a further handicap Grant mis-
understood the official signals and
was out after the record before he
could be stopped. BY some mistake
two automobiles and a surrey were
allowed to start down hill just before
he took off at the foot of the hill
But on and on the Maxwell pushed
its nose toward the summit. One by
one it twisted around the three We
hicles, downward bound; around the
dangerous turns it whirled with mud
and rain splashing everywhere. Final.
ly the peak was in sight and judges
and spectators gasped as the Maxwell
goat took one last squirt around the
hair pin turn at the top.

AUTO TRADE KNOWS:
ETERNAL TRIANGLE.

There have been dramas and movies
galore based on the idea of the "Eter-
nal Triangle" and each one portrays
the disruption of a peaceful quiet
home by the appearance an& persist
ent attentions of the inevitable third
party.
Regardless of whether or not the
erring member of the disrupted house
hold be the husband or the wife, the
ultimate aim of the author is the
elimination of the trouble-brewing
third party, and the ultimate happy
reunion Of the originally peaceful
family. Otherwise it would not be
good movie.
Mr.. A. c.. Burch, sales manager OF
the Clyde Cars Company, manufac-
turers of Clydesdale motor trucks
when being interviewed recently,
gave a graphic illustration of the Ia
Dor and material situation as applied
to the manufacture Of motor trucks,
which resembles the Eternal Tri-
angle" of modern fiction. Mr.. Burch
says:
There are three angles of the pres
ent material and labor situation
which remind me of the Eternal Tri-
angle of modern fiction. The three
angles are the high cost of living, the
cost of labor and the cost of material.
First, the workmen find the cost
of living so high that they demand
higher wages, which they get by
some means or other. The manUfac-
turers of various materials are then
forced to increase their prices on their
finished product to make up for the
1ah 4 lrc
back around so that it costs more to
produce food products and up again
goes the high cost of living.
After wrangling among themselves
the three factions find themselves in
exactly the same situation as before,
and go through the whole process
again, with the result that prices of
everything from a toothpick to a To-
connective are going up.
1t was anticipated by many that
after the war prices of motor trucks
would decline, but much to their sur
prise there was no drop, nor do I be-
lieve there will be. If there is any
change at all it will go up rather than
down, and if the Eternal Triangle
keeps up with its wranglIng there is
no doubt but that truck prices must
go up, for there are two determining
AdCbotS winch set tIiS price u HlOlOE
trucks, and they are the cost of ma
terial and the cost OF labor. If these
two costs continue to advance there
is only one thing for the truck manu-
facturer to do, and that is become a
part OF the triangle himself.
But, as in the movies, it must
turn out all right, for never was
there as much money in circulation
never so great prosperity in every
line of business, or in every social
strata. and it is certain that this
prosperity will continue until condi-
tions gradually adjust themselves and
we arrive at the proper balances be-
tween the various factions Of tn lri-
angle. 1855

HOW TOPROCEEDIN
CASE OF ACCIDENT

Accidents are something that the
owner of a motor vehicle does not
like particularly to contemplate and
generally puts of any consideration
OF the subject until the mishsp has
actually occurred. This is probably
the reason why most car owners fail
to take the steps that prudence die
tates when an accident has actually
happened and by the same token this
is why car owners so frequently find
themselves in court and lin Dutch" at
the same time.
In the August issue OF Motor there
is an article detailing the steps that
the car owner should take in self
defense, when he is involved in any
kind of an accident To begin with
the author, William II. Pier son, sug-
gests that "the car owner must re-
member that the witnesses of an ac-
cident are quite likely to be unccr-
tain Of memory as he himself is.
For this reason he should call to
the attention of witnesses particular
points in connection with the acct
dent which he knows will help his
case when it comes to court. For in
stance, he should point out to them
and demonstrate that the emergency
brake is set tight. If the mishap
occurred at a street intersection he
should impress upon their minds that
crossing and had the vehicle well in
hand. He should impress upon them
that he sounded his warning signal,
so that they will remember it when
they go on the stand. If the pave
ment was wet or otherwise slippery
at the time Of the accident, he should
show the witness that his chains were
in place on the tires.
"A very important point to prove
in the court is that the car was in its
proper place on the street when the
accident occurred. Measurements,
corroborated by witnesses, vii estab-
lish this. If the trouble came when
the car was making a turn. get wit
nesses to prove that il was making
q wide turn, as provided by the traffic
regulations"
The author proceeds to cite in
stances in which car owners have
neglected to gather the proper evil
dence at the time of an accident to
their later uudoing. He points out
that much of the evidence in these
cases is of a very temporary nature
and must be gotten on the spot or it
is gone forever. He further sug-
gests the drawing of a diagram show
ing all the principal persons and
things In any way involved in the
accident, with various pertinent dis
tances marked on the chart. AL
together this is a most valuable arti-
Gle and one that every car owner
should read, as il may save him a
consid = able sum in real money.
