This Essex, in all ways, is the finest ever built, Easier riding and driv ing, more flexible in per formance, handsomer in line and finish, it is also lower in price than ever before. Its success is sim ply the belief of buyers that it represents the ut most automobile value and satisfaction within hundreds of dollars of the price; and it proceeds entirely from what owners themselves say of Essex.

A. Grout, assistant general manager of the Fields Motor far company, , who made the trip last week. I The trip, he points out, is Inter-! eating not only from the scenery which la found, but because of the historical background of this route, which passes through the moun tains at Elkton, and on to Scotts burg and Reedsport. "J-rom Drain to Elkton the road passes by many prosperous farms and sheep ranches through the tall timber tb Elkton, thence deep in the rugged mountains and can yons by beautiful fishing streams to Soottsburg, the second post of fice established In the state," said Grout. "It was here that the first tiaUicg posts inland, from Astoria were gounded. Some of the storm-beaten buildings still stand that mark the days of early trad ing. "Krom here on down to Reeds port the road follows the river bank over the same trail that was blazed in the 'oD's by the United States army as a military road. "At Redsport, a bustling town of sawmills. Incorporated In 1919, now inhabited by some 3000 peo ple. Is the center of the lumber Industry of the watershed. An Is land opposite this town about five mites from the ocean was the sito of the state's second custom house. "Krom Reedsport to the ocean, over a distance of about five miles, a sandy but good road takes one to Winchester Bay, where exten sive government work Is being done on a jetty. Here was located the historic Fort Uinpqua. It exist ed so long ago that all remaining to show its location are two mark ers of soldiers' graves, not a soli tary piece of the fort's founda tions still surviving the elements. "Here, only 235 miles from the heart of Portland, lies an ideal camping spot not all beach nor all mountains hut a happy combina tion of the two. A hay, mountains, tall timber, fine fishing, bathing, boating, all awaiting the motorist at this vucation land, eilit hours from his home in the city." Ore-gonian.

It nas every hit of equipment needed for a smut rar. From bumper to bumper and .side, to ud it has bm-n fitted for ver thing needed on the trip. It is without a doubt the bi'st equipped car of its kind tn the, country. Starling at the front of the rar, it is equipped with a heavy buuip t r. lleiwern tliu guards, just be hind the hnuip'T a service unit is carried. This provides a contain er for exlia g.isuline, oil nnd water. A mad iitlit is attached to the front spring. This device pro vides for a ray of liidit to bo thrown across tho road and about two fet't above it, making night driving sale in foggy weather. The tourist's kitchenette Is a part of the equipment on the left tunning board of th car.

The bark of the car is equipped with another havy bumper, two tires of Western Auto make, and a wardrobe trunk. Tho right hand running board carries another special trunk which Franklin uses for clothing, camera and films. The other trunks on the same side contain groceries, a folding table and folding chairs. When these trunks are closed and locked there Is enough room left to open the doors to either the front seat or the tonneau. Step plaees have been attached to tho tops of thrc trunks to insure safe foot ago when entering the car. i In the back of the car. Franklin carries the bedding, spring bed, air mattress and pillows. This is all te( securely by straps that are fastened to the cushions. Franklin is now on a tour that will take hira through every town rontaining a Western Auto store. His car will bo on display at t-ach local store where he stops. While the use of commercial cars continues to grow and while users are more and more turning to the lighter units as the most economical, a review of recent ad vances in this division of motor transportation reveals an interest ing and significant development, aaid t. A. Lock wood, local dealer, chassis has been the most popu lar of the lighter truck units and at present approximately 76 per cent of Uiu one ton trucks in use in the United Stutea are Fords. Until little more than a year ago, however, purchases of the ' Ford truck chassis had to Becure bodies from outside manufacturers. The first appearance of Ford In the comerclal car body field came with the introduction of an all Bteel vxpress type body with open cab, also of steel construc tion. The cab and pody were built with a view of giving to the user the greatest possible value in construction and materials and at the same time a unit that was Ugh and durable, designed to meet a variety of icquirements. With tliis body on the market It wasn't long until the Ford Motor company provided 'screen sides and canopy top, thereby extending the truck's utility to delivery and Pauling services requiring protec tion of merchandise from tut. ele ment and from theft, providing at the- same lime ample loading space. . While these body combinations met a large share of the require ments in the commercial and agrl? cultural fields there still remain ed a certain divislun that, demand ed stake and platform trucks. In order to satisfy Urn demand the company recently Introduced u new stake body, which not only meets many hauling needs, hut has a particular value to the farmer, for the body is easily adaptable to the use of catttoand grain siues, Kiuig uiu man the furm a transportation unit to meet practically all of his hauling requirements. A closed cab of steot also has been introduced. It is adaptable to any of the body types and be cause of tho complete protection it affords against the elements has grown rapidly in popuhtrtly.
