Bennett Wins Prize for
 Maxwell-Chrysler Sales

Thomas II. Bennett, or the Ben- nett Motor Sales Co. local Maxwell Chrysler distributors, winner of eighth prize in the National Maxwell sales contest, in which 10000 Max well salesmen and dealers through- out the country competed, has re- turned to New Britain from Detroit. where he was presented by the Max well and Chrysler Motor corporations with his prize, an Oriental rug, in appreciation of his efforts,
 T want to thank most kindly those many Maxwell owners whose purchase of cars from me during re- cent months made 1t possible for me to win this splendid prize" Mir. Ben nett said today. Tt was their ap- preciation of the remarkable quality and value in the good Maxwell that made my record possible"
 The ability and industry of Mir Bennett were highly lauded by J. E. Fields, vice-presdent in charge of Maxwell -Chrysler sales, who had charge of the contest, which closed June 80, and who made the pre- sentation, and by Walter r. Chrys- Ter himself The awards to the 10 leading competitors were made Sep tember l and 12,
 "Factory officials spent the great CT part of two days taking us through both plants to show us in detail how each car was built" MT. Bennett said. T want to say right now that l am more strongly sold on the quality and value of both cars tban ever. l can see now why the Maxwell gives the remarkable performance it does, because quality is built into every part of the car. It is no wonder that Walter P. Chrysler himself is willing to en- dorse the Maxwell as the best four cylinder car at anywhere near its price in the world.
 T was mighty proud to meet Mir, Chrysler. He is recognized as one of the two greatest automobile geniuses in the world. Detroit has certainly capitulated to the Chrysler Six. They have sold so many Chryslers there that many prospec. tive Detroit Chrysler owners are still waiting for delivery, Such a condition in the city that knows more about automobiles than any other in the world is certainly g wonderful tribute to the car. And they tell me that more Maxwells have already been sold in and around Detroit this year than all last year. This is another splendid tribute.
 The Chrysler plant is marvel of efficiency. Every piece of machinery vas installed new when they started building the car about a year ago It is the most up-to-date plant in the entire industry. Both plants, for that matter, are models of efficiency manned by the most skilled auto mobile workmen I have ever seen.
 T found executives of both con- panies enthusiastic concerning the immediate outlook for business as well as for 1925. They expect the rest of this year to be even better than the corresponding months of 1923. Chrysler continues at full capacity and Maxwell sales show a steady growth that has been most satisfactory. Maxwell -Chrysler sales for this year are already nearl, equal to those for all Of 1923,"- ladVt,

Irrigated Pastures
Subject of Discussion

A meeting Of ranchmcn interested
in irrigated pastures will be held at
the court house in Gunnison tomor-
row, March 20 at 1880. Prof Harry
Smith of the Agricultural College at
Fort Collins will arrive tonight and
meet with those who have such pas
lures in mind at that time.
The matter Of irrigated pastures is
Of tremendous importance, not only TO
the dairymen, who will undoubtedly
be prnssnf IN lares nuuabess but also
TO the stoElenaen, Nihn haSe seen THAR
low@ying Enage fast disappear. and
are vitally interested in tie matter Of
intensive grazing pastures
under fence. In Ireland and Denmark
pastures are worth as high as $500 an
acre to the stockmen. There Is no
reason why, with our abundant water
and the proper combination of grasses,
Colorado pastures, especially those in
the cooler attitudes like Gunnison,
which approach the climate of those
European countries, should not be
made of high value. The point is to
develop, the right kind Of grasses and
and upon these subjects
Prof. Smith is an expert.

RADIO MAKING US
FAMOUS ABROAD

Gunnison's radio broadcasting
station. the only one in the state
in active operation outside of
Denver, is spreading the name Of
Gunnison and Western State
College abroad all over the land.
When people ''listen in" from
Maine to California, and from
Montana to the Mexican line,
they hear about the college and
the land "where the sun shines
every day and the fishing is
fine"
That's good advertising.
That's the finest kind Of pub
licity. 1t is linking up with the
latest in science and advanced
thot. II Is extending in ever
widening circles the fame Of our
college and the Gunnison coun-
try.
News Champion sincerely
hopes that at the Chamber Of
Commerce meeting to be held
soon, . way will open for sufYi-
cient funds to be raised to pur-
chase the additional power need
ed to triple the broadcasting unit
and still further advertise Gun
nison and the college.
