Here is tho simple and sovereign answer to the question of automobile satisfaction. The ideal transportation achieved in the Greatest Essex Super-Six was long foreshadowed in the 6cries of individual superiorities by which Essex towered above the field. Its vivid brilliance of per formance reveals in it single ride a smoothness and quiet, a road-skimming case and soaring exhilar ation that Is actually like flying. Greaterin power, more versatile in all performance, larger, roomier and more beautifully appointed, the New Essex Super-Six gloriously earns its richer reward in the greatest popularity of Essex history.

BRAKE INSPECTION A REAL SAFETY MEASURE Motorists w ho koep I heir brakes in 1 ho best condition are the strongest advocates of brake in spection. They do not experience brake failure and yet, many times they worry about It more than tho irresponsible driver. This Is the discovery made by a group of safety advocates, based upon an Investigation to determine what class of car owner and driver Is giving tho most Bupport lo safety movement. In explanation to this, the In vestigators point out that the care ful motorist knows bettor than anyone else, the menace of tho "other fellow" who s prods over the highway with n defcrtlvn brak ing system. Even If bis . own brakes are safe, tho careful mo torisi realizes that this does not t render him secure against thp "it ! responsible element." Commenting upon these find ings an official of tho Russell Manufacturing company declares that it is important to keep con scientious drivers sold on the ne cessity of periodical inspection nf car equipment, and points out that It is also important that the caie less driver be educated to have bin bra k e s inspected periodically "Most people are careful," he says, "and we can keep our high ways and streets safer by keejH lug the majority behind this move ment, and by continually endeavor ing to enlist the aid of nil motor ists In keeping brakos in proper condition." In many cities compulsory brak-; Inspjection ordinances have beeiv passed, making periodical brake in spection necessary nnd tho en forcement of this ordinance has invariably resulted In fewer accidents.
