oe-itern exhibit ef Joe Dothard, a Nances creek farmer. q. the Community fair in Jacksonville Friday, proved to be one of the most interesting links between the pioneer days of the long ago and the mod ern pioductiveness of the preesnt age, when farming has been made into a hn- lshed science, and in which MT. Dothard has shown that the high cost of living does not interfere with the happiness Of his own household
 Among the things exhibited by the well kiown Nances creek Irishman were sweet potatoes, velvet beans. apples. cottonseed, irish potatoes, butter. syrup, Burr clover, iresh neat, honey. peas, beans, rye, wheat, onions. artishoke, bran, oats, raw cotton, corn, pumpkins, collards, fine display of egs. and the remarkable part of the exhibit was that it had been as ssmbiad in one days time.
 The exhibit of Mir. Dothard attracted great deal of attention and mech favor- able comment on the part of the people who visited the Community fair at Jack sonvile Friday
 The most remarkable and unusual fea- ture of the Irjshmans exhibit was the showing of raw wool just as it was clipped from the backs of his many sheep, and beside it a bolt of home-wonlen cloth Hitue Dy the tnrlfty WlIe or tHe 9A'ilS worth and pattern hand-woven on the old looms of ante-telhm days.
 The public square at Jacksonville was crowded with people who came in from the outlying districts Friday to view the exhibits. Hogs cattle, poultry young colts, turkeys and every kind of llTe stock raised ir the community attracteG the interested attention of the large crowds who assembled there for the day.. and while the first effort of the Jackson vile people was not attended with the success expected it has at once become a fixed custom to hold the Community tatrs at that place every last Friday in NoVern- ber.
 The hog and pig exhibit at JacksonViiie was one of the most interesting or its kind ever viewed by those who attended the Community fair, and the porkers came in for a bulk of the attentfon at the hands of the visitors.
 The fancy work exhibit Of the women of the Jacksonville community attracted just as much attention as did the other features at the fair. The exhibits were placed in the large rest room just off the public square and dozens of separate eN- hibits were disclosed for the public gaze

18,OOO Owners Attest Essex Dependability

Durability, economy and train-like regular ity are the standards set by Essex.
 More than 18,000 owners have learned this advantage. Many cars run 16,000 to 10000 miles without the least repairs Such proofs multiply daily.
 Today Essex durability is as unquestioned as it's ability to out-perform any car of it's weight, and to surpass many that are larger and cost far more.

Note These Special Business Conveniences

The Essex Roadster is particularly suited for saesmen, visiting representatives, inspec- tors and others who must make widely scat tered calls.
 Though not large, the Roadster is commo- dious. There is plenty of room for passengers and special arrangements for carrying sample cases unseen, and even trunk if desired.
 Consider comfort, too. Men who use car much in business appreciate the value of rid ing ease They know how motoring fatigue takes the drive out of man, towards the flag end of the day. They appreciate the SiAing comfort of the Essex. It is comparable to no other light car. Only among large, high

 It becomes, in fact, part of their business system. It must be on the job, keep all en- agreements on time, and be as responsible as an engineers watch

Big Car Comfort Light Car Economy

The size of the Essex makes parking space easy to find. It allows free handling in crowded traffic, both important these days. The quick pickup easily escapes "pocketing" behind slower cars.
 Whether for long tours cross country, or for the nimbler requirements of city use, the Essex Roadster has proved itself worthy in endurance, hill-climbing, acceleraton, speed and comfort. Its place is established among the fine cars of motordom, not only as a jaunty, graceful car for pleasure or sport, but also as dependable transportation that squarely meets the test of business.
The Birmingham age-herald., 1919-11-30
Keeps Its New Car Appearance

Despite its pleasing grace the Essex is sol idly built. Thorough care is evident in every detail of finish and appointments. The Essex keeps it's appearance. Even after months of service it's smartness of finish is practically unimpaired and it's performance as true, smooth and quiet as when new.
 Come see the Essex Roadster. Ride in it. Try it's paces. Whether you want it for pleas ure or business, you will appreciate the req sons why more than $30,000,0O0 has been paid for Essex cars by more than 18,0O0 own CTS. That is record that no other car ever equaled in it's first year sales.
