ESCAPING FROM MONOTONY A New York columnist remarks that one of the most in leresting features of the metropolis Is the presence of a great number of fclderly women who live by themselves in single hotel rooms and, by tho purchase of a few pels, a couple of potted plants and the like, manage to give Broad way a touch of Main street atmosphere. These women are usually widows who lived in small towns and who, in their uutumn years, moved to New York, alone , and unacquainted,' to get a taste of big city life. Usually (hey have enough money to do it without skimping, although , they me seldom really wealthy. ' Many of theni, according to tho columnist, spend most of their time sitting by their hotel windows and-.watehing the imwds on tho streets below. At their feet drowse their : nits; on the window sill are a couple of polled geraniums. Thus they finish their days enjoying life to the full simply by watching the busy whirl of the city. There is something rather appealing about these women. Their activities sound so wistful, somehow; it is so easy, ironi the way in which they spend their old age, to picture the kind of life they have led, , One sees them patient, busy housewives in small towns, living their lives through amid narrow horizons, suppressing meir longing u see and enjoy the outside world, giving them selves dutifully to husbands and children, drudging away in uncomplaining fashion for years and then, at lust, finding leisure ami enough money to enable them to get away. They go straight to New York. Once there, they cannot join in the guy whirl. They ai-e out of it . But they can watch it; so they sit by their windows, drinking to the full the strange sights and activities of the city, making up in a few months for tho long monotony of being hemmed in in a small town. - They are appealing fipmes, somehow and remind one of those who spend most of their lives amid the whirl and noise of tho city, dreaming of the peace and quiet and friendliness of life in small town or country..

You know exactly what it will do. There is nothing of an experiment about it. . Learn from users show a delivered ' value far beyond expectations. Almost " without exception they stress reliability. You sense a feeling of sincere pride in the oft-repeated phrase "Let me tell you what my new Ford did." : A well-known tire company, solely to test tires, drove a new Ford more than 90,000 miles in six months. Through out that time, the car was run day and night, an average of twenty-two hours out of every twenty-four. The entire cost of repair parts was only 38 for the entire 90,000 miles. Another tire company, making a similar test, drove the new Ford more than 80,000 mild in a short period, at a cost per mile that was fully 60 less than any figure it had previously known. . One of the first of the new Fords was driven from Dearborn, Michigan, to Los Angeles to San' Francisco to New York and back to Dearborn a dis tance of of 8328 miles in twenty-one days. Through ice and sleet, up moun tain peaks, through desert sands, over macadam and deeply rutted dirt roads, it traveled at an average speed of 40.9 miles an hour. , Practically a year of average driving was done in three weeks, yet the entire trip was made without the need of a single major adjustment or rrpair. Another new Ford, as a test of hill climbing, was driven from San Bernar dino, California, over the National Old Trails and Swartout Valley Highway, to the Big Pines Recreation Camp.

This extremely difficult and dangerous climb was made over rock-strewn, al most impassable mountain trails. gear a particularly severe test because of the sharp turns and a stretch of 5.7 - miles where the grade rses precipitously from 3000 to 6075 feet. , ' Other incidents are even more dra matic. A letter from the East tells how the Triplex shatter-proof glass windshield of the hew Ford prevented injuries from flying glass when the car ' was forced off the road into a telegraph pole. A news-reel photographer tells 'how'thctirakes on the new Ford saved his life when, speeding through a bliz zard to film a shipwreck, he found him self, suddenly on the very edge of a 50-foot cliff. From a far western state a husband and father writes gratefully to tell how the sturdiness of the new Ford "saved the lives of my family" when the car was struck by a hit-and-run driver. Come in see the new Ford car -arid drive it yourself through thickest traffic, up steepest hills, over roughest roads. You will know then that it is an unusual value at a low price. Roadster, 450 ..
