Tie expedition is primarily for
tho study of the volcanic phenom
ena in which the Alaskan Penin
sula, and the neighboring Aleutian
islands are rich; butj while cross
ing the tundra and foothill country
preparatory to scaling the active
and dormant volcanoes, .scientific
members of the pirty have made n
study of natural phenomena in
general.
The peculiar Vy formation on
the foot slopes of Pavlof'is termed
by Professor Jaggar "an fee Jun
ble." It Is almost, but not quite a
glacier, he states. Explosive erup
tions', have dumped debris into the
area for years, ho explains, and j
this has bp.en frozen together. The J
materials consist, Br. Jaggar
writes, "of ice. gravel, boulders,
bombs, pumice, ash and sand in u ;
vast hummocky sea of Jumble." j
Four streams flow from the front j
.of this near-glacier. Nearby and

genius for style, beauty, performance
and luxury with which Chrysler
built cars are so richly endowed

Six of Chrysler quality.
You arc invited to sec this remarkable

th e sa m e vital elements of quality
The only Essex point in common with cars in its price field
is price. An examination of our Special Chassis Display
; will giveyou someastonishing and impressive comparisons
that you will not forget. Kssex quality, fine appearance
and high manufacturing practice rightly classify it with
those costly cars which use the best k nown fine car methods.
For every important item in
Essex construction you must
go to these costly cars to find
comparison. Like the '3,000
cars Essex uses roller tappet
bearings. It uses Timken ta
pered wheel bearings. It uses
worm-anU-gear type steering.
It uses a hard-rubber steering
wheel, with steel core, identical
with the wheel used on the
highest priced cars. Like the
3,000 cars Essex uses five frame
cross members for rigidity.
Like them it fully balances all
running parts for smooth,
long-lasting operation.
The four-wheel brakes used on
the Essex Super-Six are the
same enclosed and protected
type used on costliest cits, and
assure the maximum brake
safety.
They typify the costly car way
Essex is built throughout
and you can verify this detail
by detail, inside anil out, by
comparison first 'with costly
cars and then with cars in the
Essex price class.
