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.. Both seek change as relief
from monotony.

iYoy arc Iwylng proved performance
when you buy the new Ford. 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. The
entire 36.2 miles were made in high
tf . low W fltrt crt the lines end tlrikinglf

A
Jtn example of the stamina
and performance of the new Ford was
shown in the ascent of Ben Nevis, the
highest mountain in Great Britain.
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.
