aUSJNfcSS MOTtU£w. THE MARVELLOUS MAXWELL. UNIQUE DEMONSTRATION AT TEMUKA. TroXCrTEMENT ran high in the JLJ streets of New York city recently at the eight of a littlo MAXWELL "26* towing a huge waggon loaded witk £v« tons of coal. The car was observed to stop at frequent intervals and then start again, the object of the driver being to show that the re-start could be made without the slightest shock or jock to the automobile. Several gradients were taken smoothly during this undeniably, good test which th« MAXWELL authorities regarded as unparalleled in the records of motorcar o&oieaojr. In order to prove the truth of this ( story Mr J. G. Andrews, importer and MAXWELL AGENT in South Canterbury, gar* a demonstration to the peopU of Temmka on July 26, 1915. Taking a shipment of eight "25's" not J long unpacked, one car was turned up ready for the road, while the remaining seren, just as they came out of the cases, wer« attached to the car under test by mesuis of ropes. A steersman accompanied each car, and the aggregate .waigkt krached close on the seventoW;'!m»rk. On starting the towing MAXWELL held to her load easily and without shock, gaining pace in good ,styl« until a halt was culled in the main 'street. Om restarting a repetition of the first kigkly satis history conditions was achisved, and the de:iio:istration conolud»d with iho succssful negotiation of a slight gradient. This remarkable t*sfe a»b only capped ibe MAXWELL'S New Y»rk record, but proved to an even greater degree the strength and flexibility of the" MAXWELL clutch. This clutch, running in an oil-bath, is a feature of that kins of cars, the Rolk-Royce, aud is of vital importance in motw-cai- construction. In all other raspects the MAXYv'KLI.. "25" represents "the last word," which accounts for its increasing popularity amongst ih» notoring public.
