ON MOTHER'S DAY
Nearly a hundred vends nun a woman wrote:
Un ran to me when I fell, .
And would some pretty story tell
Or kiss tlio placa to make it well?
II y Mother.
And a few years bko Rudyard Kipling wrote:
If I were handed on the highest hill,
Mother o' mine. Oh, Mother mother it mine,
I know whose love would follow nie still,
Mother o' mine, Oh Mother o' mine; '
If I were drowned in the. deepest sea,
Mother o' mine, Oh, Mother o' mine,
I know whose prayers would come down U me,
Mother o' mine, Oh Mother o' mine;
If I were damned of botfy and soul,
I know whose prayers would make me whole,
Mother o' mine, Oh Mother o' mine.

Now it is proved that other men

makes capital of this.
Killing an lunocvut mnu occas

Tlffi most important announcement, since Secretary Hoover
threw his hat into the ring, was made yesterday liy Secre
tary Mellon, when lie told the Pennsylvania delegation that:
while he does not favor an instructed delegation, he does prefer
Hoover over any candidate now in the field.
Vnder the circituntauces this was a most conservative state
ment for the conservative Andrew M. to make, for, with an 1111
instriteted delegation decided upon, there was no occasion for
him to mention any names, whatever.
Now, Mr. Mellon in to he the kiiiK-beo at that Kansas City
convention. No cundidate will he named over his opposition,
and any candidate he chooses to name will promptly he award
ed the cut-glass nut howl.
What this Mellon announcement means is this: Unless ly
some improbable combination of circumstances, I'resident (.'ool-
idtfe w forced to run for re-election, Mr. Herbert Hoover of
California is going to be the Republican candidate for the 1 'resi
dency of the lfnited States.
In putting himself on record as preferring Hoover to Low
den, Curtis, Watson, et ol, these men arc, for all practical pur
poses, eliminated. Kor as Pennsylvania goes, so will go New
York, and as these two states go, so will go the convention.
The Hoover supporters need not worry any more about In
diana or other state primaries. All they have to do is keep
President Coolidgc where he is regarding a third term. Unless
the President changes his mind or is thrown into the race by.u
convention stampede,, the victory they are after has already been
won.

Outselling All HSies-f
ji nationwide acknowledgement
of ihelVorlds (jreafestyalue
A buying preference of enormous proportions lifts
the Essex Super-Six far above the crossfire of com
petitive claims. It is the public itself which says the
finest things for Essex.
j It is outselling all other-"Sixes" in many sections
by more than 2 to 1. And, with slight variations, this
preference is the nation's and the world's.
The new Essex Super-Six is a delight to the eye in lines, in fine exterior ap
pointment and incarefulfiniih that invites and repays the closest examination.
Within, this satisfaction to eye and sense is apparent in every detail. The
quality of the high-backed, form-fitting seats richly upholstered impresses
you immediately. At the slender, graceful wheel, you look out over the
shining beauty of cowl, hood, saddle-type lamps, heavy, arching fenders, to the
rivinged radiator figure that expresses the spirit and fleetness under your hand.
You have before you the handsome grouping of dials and meters upon the
beautiful ebony instrument board.
Starter and electro-lock are there to your hand, too. Bcndix four-wheel
brakes give smooth positive stopping action and an added sense of greater
4 security. All doors are weatherstripped. The body is of silenced construc
tion, adding to the notably quiet operation of Essex.
And then you have the famous Essex chassis, powered with the Super-Six
high-compression, high efficiency motor that turns waste heat to power,
giving brilliant sdsttined performance never before, kiiown in this field. ;,
To see, to examine, to ride in the New Essex Super-Six can bring only one
conclusion it is the World's Greatest Value altogether or part by part.
