Dealers have ventured all sorts of descriptions for it. Btrt today it is having its premier showing in hundreds of cities and towns throughout America. I For months the trade papers have given first prominence to whatever news they could get of its details. Their interest was awakened because it combines the advantages of the light low pricedcar, and its economy, with the performance, sturdiness and beauty of the large and costly car. One leading writer proclaimed the Essex a new development in motor car transportation. Don't you want to be among the first in this locality to see the car that has awakened this interest? We wish you would come and ride in it for You Are To Do Its Advertising We have long wanted to reveal the details of the Essex. But the manufacturers said they wanted the car to speak for itself. They said no description that could be applied to it would create as favorable an impression as would result from a ride in the car. Even now we hesitate to praise the Essex since we can say nothing that has not already been claimed in praise for some other car. So the endorsement it is to receive is such as yon and other thousands of motorists volunteer to give. All we ask is that you come see and ride in it.

But we were told that was for us to discover as we inspected and rode in the car.

What a Ride Proved to Us Our first experience was a ride over a road so rough that you would willingly go. miles out of the way tor avoid if -you were in the average Hght car, We took it at high speed, but the effect in both the front and rear seats was more in keeping with what you might expect in riding over a smooth pavement. f Then we drove into soft sand where the wheels sunk la below the felloes, going through as though it were thin mud. Every test that reveals . performance was shown us. There were no squeaks. The motor did not labor. The cari had been in similar service for months and still retained its appearance of newness. These are things we want to. demonstration like that which surprised us if yon will come to our store.
