ESSEX CAR IS TWO YEARS OLD.
II Was the "Mystery Car" in De-
troit District.

Judging from the comments OF our
customers" says Harry S. Houpt, presi-
dent of the Hudson Motor Car Com
pany OF New York, about the only criti-
cism they hear OF the Essex cars from
statesmen of rival cars is that the Essex
IS n new car.
"while it Is true that It was displayed
Mt the recent Automobile Show for the
first time the car Is new in name only
as 1t has been undergoing the most rigid
tests in the hands of its builders for
the past two years.
when the Essex first appeared like
gray ghost on the roads around Detroit
81 earned for itself the title of the
mystery car because OF its seemingly
miraculous power and endurance and
the fact that even in that motot- wise
city no one could recognize its make.
clad in a mud-stained coat OF factory
gray, with its bonnet tightly sealed and
with MO name plate to reveal its identity.
for months 1t haunted the outlying paths
most used by factory testers. No chal-
lenge was ever refused. no matter how
great the odds, and many an amateur
sportsman or budding factory speed
demon" lowered his colors to that 'mys-
terry car
"All cars, regardless OF size. looked
alike to the oil covered pilot of the gray
wizard. which seemed to have nothing
10 do but loaf over the roads in search
Of new adversaries to dust The news
OF the cars powers spread from the
testers to the factory executives. who,
however, despite every effort. were un-
@ bic to solve the mystery.
THE Essex was not built for speed
alone, however as comfort, reliability.
economy in upkeep were the first con-
alterations. II was built to fill the need
for n car of the highest quality which
should still be light in weight and mod
crate in price.
"The Essex at present is being built
at the Hudson Super. Six factory and
was designed by the same engineers who
turned out the Super-Six. 1t Is not
necessary to describe 1t in detail as the
car can and will talk for itself"

j. Il. Findlater. \vice president OF the
Briscoe Motor Corporation, was In town
a few days ago and said: THE mark
timers, the wait-awhiles. and all the
other doubtful. gloomy, pessmistic indi-
viduals who have been wondering what
was going to happen In the passenger
car business have been answered.
THE records of the various shows,
national as well as local. are in. and
they show the most wonderful early
spring business that the industry has
known. Actual sales for immediate de-
livery have been two or three times as
great as ever before. and every sales
man has acquired list of real pros
poets that make certain an enormous
volume of business during the months
20 come.
another thing already apparent Is
that the BriscOe Is rapidly assuming its
-rlghtful place in the light car field.
The. shows this year have been rea,
ceiling shows more than ever before.
so that It was easily possible for an
observer TO watch thte trend of popular
demand and see how the public felt
about the various competitive cars In
each price class. From every city the
report has been the same--that the
Brscoe Got its share of the business.
aud that the bank~roll OF the Brlscoe
dealer this year Ii going to be large,

A RECORD RUBBER
SHIPMENT ARRIVES
2,240,000 Pounds Received by
United States Tire Co.
From Singapore.

One OF the greatest shipments OF rub
her ever received in America In a single
lot is proceeding across country from
San Francisco to Detroit in special
train of twenty-six cars The weight of
the shipment is 100000 pounds.
The rubber Is consigned to the Nor
gan & Wright tire plant of the United
states Rubber Company. 1t arrived In
san Francisco from Singapore on the ST.
IBERIA Maru and represents part Of the
large accumulations OF crude rubber
held back in the Far East by the en-
barge on importations.
To the rubber expert a shipment OF
this size is n matter OF amazement more
than to the average man unacquainted
with the infinitely slow processes by
which such stores OF rubber are built
I'D. The shipment In question repre-
sents the entire production OF about
$50. 900 rubber trees for an entire year
and the labor of more than 1000 men
for the same period.
Every working day Of the year the
tappers visit every tree. collecting the
latex and making fresh cuts in the bark.
From the new cuts the valuable rubber
fluid begins to drip into the porcelain
cups Any one watching the slow drip
would marvel that SO slow a process
could ever produce a tralnload OF crude
rubber. Each trees contribution 10 less
than two-tenths of an ounce of rubber
day. or about four pounds year
The great plantation OF the United
States Rubber Company In Sumatra-
with its seventy square miles or trees
and its 5000 employees. occupies a
strategic position among American rub
Der manufacturers.

GIVE YOUR CAR A CHANCE.
Chandler Six In Competent Hands
Makes Record,

Intelligent care of an automobile not
only adds materially to its life but to
its every day performance" says J. B.
Hulett of the Brady-Murray Motors Cor
poration. distributors OF the Chandler
Six. "If the car is not kept in the best
OF condition 1t will not deliver its best
service, and when II is not able TO
deliver its best service 1t is wearing out
rapidly because there is something
wrong somewhere.
"An interesting case In point came 70
my attention last week in connection
with a Chandler Six roadster that has
covered over $1,000 miles in nine months
for the State Military Training Commits
sion. which Is in charge of the physical
and military education OF 100000 boys
In New York State, Now l happen to
know that this car Is In very competent
hands. 1t has been driven and taken
care of as every car should be. and yet
1t has been going night and day and
over some of the toughest roads in the
State-country roads leading into the
$4,000 school districts the commission
has had to cover. Not penny has
been spent on that car for repairs dur
ing the nine months in question and the
four tires with which the car was
originally equipped were taken off, only
the other day, each one having been
good for almost $1,000 miles. Carbon
was removed from the cylinders just
once.
"Now. the freedom that owner had
from repairs Is only his reward for
sensible driving and care. The car had
severe work cut out for it and del that
work we'll because II was not handi-
capped by lack OF care or careless
driving.
The owner made frequent trips from
Albany to New York in addition to his
other duties and reports that his regular
running time between the two cities was
four hours and fifty minutes"
