Its Worth is Shown
In Service Not Price

The strongest Essex boosters are those who
have driven their cars the hardest.
1t is so easy to handle-so lively and SO
comfortable that there is pleasure rather than
work in driving it.
You may be undecided between the Essex
and some other car of similar weight and
price.
The two cars look bright and attractive
on the sales floor.
The demonstration will give the Essex an
advantage that everyone is glad to describe.
Then the thing for you to decide is how
those two cars will compare after several
months of service.
For answer, note the Essex cars in your
neighborhood.
Take a ride in one whose speedometer
registers long service.
Look out for performance. See if it still has
the power to do the things it did. when new.
Is it quiet and rigid and in good condition.

Performance limitations have naturally
grouped cars into classes. Certain cars may
be depended upon for unlimited service.
They know no frontiers of distance. They
are dependable and require practically no
attention.
But such cars are large and costly, costly

When zero weather put teeth into
winter for tho first time yesterday the
absence Of applications for free beds
the night before at municipal and
other lodging houses revealed that the
tide of down-and outs in the city is
at perhaps the lowest ebb in history.
At the famous Bowery Mission, at
227 Bowery, only one man applied for
a bed, where under similar conditions
five years ago there would have been
about 1000 applicants. At the Mu-
nicipal Lodging House. at 432 East
Twenty-ffth Street, which has a ca
pacity of 91S men and women. only
62 men and 2 women were sheltered.
This number is fewer than the aver
age at this time last year, when the
mercury, at no time went below 8 de-
grees above zero In fact, on only
three occasions so far in December,
1919, has last years record there been
exceeded. In no night so far this
month has the lodging house sheltered
as many as 100 persons.
