WINDSOR Straight and euro—like en arrow that flies from the bow and imbeds itself in the burl's. eye -- So have the Maxwell builders fixed a price for their prodyct--41046--which makes it pos- sible for them to say: "Below this figure there must be something tacking which we have put into tbo Maxwell— efficiency, durability, economy, comfort, beauty or standard equipment. --and above this figure we could give you no greater practical utility ---only larger she or richer and fancier furnishings.” This is the scientific fact—proved and de- monstrated by one of the giants of the motor car industry in years of production on an im- mense scale. And we stand firm on this finding of the Maxwell builders. We believe the Maxwell to be the BEST MOTOR CSAR INVESTMENT possible today. 0 1 /2,7. ����ir,��r����rririiri�ii����ii�r��i��<<��; Varna Mr.. and eLrs, J. E.

OVER in the sodden trenches amid the bursting shells and the roar of artillery where Canada's boys are fighting and dying. —they are waiting for Canada's answer when the sale of Victory Bonds begins. CANADA'S soldiers expect that �✓ we at honiewill putup the mil- lions they need to keep on fighting, —the millions they must have to win Victory for freedom, home and Canada. What answer willCanada make? What answer will you make? Shall it be said that Canada spares not her sons from the sacri- fice of battle, yet withholds her dollars to give them victory? Rather will it be said that Can- ada once more, for the fourth time in three years, cheerfully puts up her millions upon millions for the cause of freedom, right- 0001811e8s and justice. Canada's answer inia b--; • —that the Canadian hand to the plow of Victory holds stead- fast and firm. —that Canada is in deadly earnest when she says the "last roan and the last dollar," That is the answer Canada will give to one:' boys in the trenches, our kinsmen in Britian, and our Allies everywhere. That is the answer we will give to the Huns who thought and said. that Canada would desert the Empire before she would fight or pay. Every bond you buy is an answer, Let the millions of an- swers from Canada's • loyal meta d wotllcll Macke a chorus of Victory to ring around the world.
