JtWCTT SIX PAIGE BUILT $1065 f.o.b. factory vfPWI w Why 60,000 Jewett Buyers Bought a Husky Thrifty Six EVERY Jewett Six owner had his chance to buy some “light” six. He could have saved SIOO in first cost; but he preferred the Jewett. Why? The new Jewett Six is different from ‘ light” sixes in many vital ways —principally in sturdiness of con struction, and in ample power. See how well Jewett Six is built. f 6-inch-deep frame is specially cross-braced. It is rigid. A mighty foundation for car strengtli, safety and comfort. Paige-Timken axles front and rear leave no room for doubt as to long life and safety. Ball-bear ing steering spindles neither wear nor rattle; make driving a pleasure. All-steel universal joints have lu brication sealed in. Springs are 80% of wheelbase. Paige-type clutch and transmission make gear-shift ing positive, quiet; rarely can you stall the motor or jerk the car. The 50 h.p. Paige-built motor is so big it fills the hood! It is as big and as good as the motors in SISOO cars —and it STAYS GOOD! First, because it is more than able to handle the car; second, it has the hollow crankshaft, high-pressure oiling system that sends 2 gallons of oil per minute through all main andconnect ing rod bearings. Long life thousands of miles of trouble-free, smooth, “peppy” performance—are certain. Do you blame Jewett buyers for preferring the new Jewett Si x to any “light” six of less power, less strength, shorter life? Let us show you the Jewett in action. Drive it, yourself.
