The Glenbrook is sufficiently

pearance to satisfy those who de-
sire "smartness" in line; but so
well proportioned, so sturdy and
graceful as to be refined and dig
nified.
The widespread popularity SO
rapidly won, and so surely main
tanned, is a fitting tribute to the
Glenbrook' artistic merit and me-
chanical value. The graceful
straight line body is indicative of
superlative worth throughout the
car.

broad and roomy-iust low
enough for restful ease, and tilted
angles that give the maximum of
luxury They are made over soft,
springy hair and long-liVed resili-
ent springs.
Mounted at the rear, beneath
the frame, is a 17-gallon gasoline
tank-a supply sufficient to last
through a hard days run or on a
cross country tour.
Glenbrook ease of operation,
proverbial among Paige owners, is
emphasized by the rake of the
steering wheel and convenient To-
cation OF controls and instruments.
Like all Paige models, the Glen
brook body is remarkable for its
lasting finish, 1t is fine example
of the best modern die work. Ac-
etylene welding of all joints makes
the body practically a solid, seam

CONDITIONED Brakes Vital
For Safety; important
Rules For Handling Car
How to Apply Brakes.

9. Do you apply your brakes
properly when ION the road?
a. When coming to stop on a
straight-away, shut off the gaso-
line throttle and leave the clutch
engaged until just before you
come to a stop; this method of
stopping is especially advisable in
wet weather because 1t lessons the
tendency Of the car to skid. 1t
also helps to distribute the brak-
ing power equally, and assists the
action Of the brakes.
Do not shut off the ignition un-
I'll after You have stopped; 1t may
be necessary to make quick start.
Find out the idling speed main
tained by your car when the gaso-
line throttle is closed, then never
Except In emergency cases) try
to use your brakes when the
clutch is engaged and the car Is
travelling slower than the idling
speed.
b, In going down an ordinary
hill, leave the clutch engaged and
close the gasoline throttle. This
helps cool the engine and also
makes IL unnecessary to use the
brakes 1t is sometimes desirable
to turn off the ignition switch +,
this further cools the engine and
adds to the braking power.
C. In going down steep hills or
when descending ordinary hills
with heavy load. put the gears
In intermediate or low speed at
the top of the hill and leave the
clutch engaged. Shut off the gas
oline throttle and, IL desirable,
turn off the ignition switch.
d. In ordinary driving do not
use the brakes oftener than nee
essary; regulate the speed of the
car as much as possible by use of
the throttle. II the car is equip
ped with foot throttle use it in
preference to the hand throttle.
This leaves the hands freer to op-
crate the gears and the steering
wheel
Q. In making an emergency
stop, leave the clutch engaged,
apply the foot brake and pull the
hand brake; but do not "lock the
wheels. Keep the wheels rolling;
otherwise there is danger that the
car might slide or skid.

Robert Fl. Hassler, president OF

some friends about dealer enthus-

He became the talk of the lit

him as an institution. He was Il
real salesman, and naturally pro-
duced results.
"One time the village council
was debating whether or not the
streets should be repaired. There
were many bad places in the pave
ment, and there could be no doubt
about the need of such work.
"Yet it would mean higher taxes
and assessments. And this point
was the bone of contention. Many
of the citizens had appeared before
the councilto protest or argue in
favor of the ordinance.
"Then came the Hassler dealer.
He stood up before the council and
