The automobile is a pleasure vehicle and it spoils 'the fun to be hopelessly out-rivaled by a car that is smaller and costs less to buy. n . ;And for. the- same reason thei;e is a lot of satis faction in having a car that, though it is small and its cost'is less, does^ut-perform all.of its class and has few rivals among the large, costlier auto mobiles. ? : ? THAT IS WHY YOU HEAR SO MUCH OF ESSEX You will get his feelings best if you ride with an Essex owner who is inclined to show his car, off to other motorists. All seem to experience the same satisfaction at being the first car away when ac celeration is called into play. Of course, anyone who have ever driven much knows that the greatest delight, .where "speed is concerned, comes with the ability to best a rival with extra bursts of speed. It is . the situations which show a car's ability to out-perform others that give greatest cause for pride. And, knowing that, there is little wonder they speak of the Essex as they. do. - You don't hear Essex owners compare their cars to others of similar size or cost. They always tell how they have out-performed some bigger,* costlier car. ? Did you ever ask an Essex owner to tell'-you what he thinks of his car in comparison to another in the same weight and price range? He didn't hesitate to express his disdain, did he? ' ESSEX QUALITY DIDN'T JUST HAPPEN The Essex performs as it does because it is built to the highest type of car standard. Its smallness in size and moderateness of price have meant no sacrifice in either quality, durability or comfort lo the user. T Do you know, for instance, that every detail in J. the construction of the Essex is comparable to one of the world's most famous fine cars? That is why the Essex shows the performance that it does. It is why everyone knows it as an ut terly different car than lias ever been offered. As well attempt to judge the capacity of a man's brain by the size of his hat, as to determine what the Essex can do merely by its type or size and the fact that it sells for only a little more than other cars whose limitations you recognize. That stand ard doesn't work when the Essex is considered. NOTE THE ADVANTAGES OF SUCH A CAR / The Essex is not a large car, neither is it tiny. No space is wasted. No extra weight is used. Neither passengers nor driver is crowded. They have plenty of room on the seats and for their legs. The size of the Essex gives it many advantages. It accounts for its moderate cost. It makes it a more economical car to operate. And think how much more convenient to drive. It slips through traffic where a larger car would be delayed. Parking space can be found that others can not squeeze in to. It can be turned in a short radius. SO DON'T FORGET THIS FACT The Essex in every particular, save in its price and weight, is comparable to cars that cost much more, and it possesses the further advantage in economy that comes from its lighter weight. It is not a light car in the sense that others of its size are usually judged. So examine the Es sex with that thought in mind. And remember, 16,000 owners are teljing of more good qualities about it than any Essex salesman can tell you. Es sex owners wilkadvise you to buy an Essex in either the five passenger touring, the sedan or the roadster models. We advise you be prepared to wait forde livery, for the demand exceeds* the out put of more than 100 cars a day. Corner Cameron and Pitt Sts.
