The Essex is practically ratte-proof 1t does not
soon show the effects Of service. Il axe notice OF
the condition of Essex cars that have been driven
fifteen to twenty thousand miles The qualities
remain. The performance is snappy when the
car covered its first hundred miles. And if you
will ask the owner you will be surprised at the little
attention he has had to give in the way Of tighten
ing bolts, making adjustments and doing the other
time-consuming and costly things you might expect
of car of its weight and cost.

Reliability Wins

Business men can not spare any time for me-

schedules and must travel with the precision of rail

attention means delays and delays costly. Con-
sequently the Essex has won thousands who have

won as no other car has done.

OF course. you know the Essex roadster must

Performance That
Is Distinctive

Light weight cars, it is true, have not been ex-

1t is a New Type Which
$4,000 Have Adopted

No greater endorsement should be required.
What car has ever equalled the success OF the
Essex In months motorists have shown their
faith to the extent of thirty million dollars paid for
eighteen thousand Essex Of various types.
You know the Essex a small, light weight
that does not appear tiny And if you have ever
ridden in an Essex. you have observed that rid
ing sensation suggests its smallness But its light
ness means there Is useless weight
Strength and durability are attained by proper
design and highest quality materials. Any doubt
some may have had that the Essex IS too powerful

road pounding its performances invite have had
opportunity to dispel their fears.
The Essex has shown that light weight advan-

leadership.

ARMY OF NEGROES
MIGRATES NORTH

Washington, March 19.-Investiga-
tions of Negro migration to the
North during the war, according to
a report just, issued by the United
States Department Of Labor, indicate
thata til total migration may have
been as great as 350,00O, extending
over q period of about eighteen
months during 1915 and 1917. That
figure is fixed as the maximum limit,
and 100000 as the minimum limit,
and the estimate of James H. billiard,
who had charge of the inquiry, is
100000.
The movement had been under way
for long time before any effort was
made to determine the number of
Negroes moving North Moreover,
so many left separately and unob-
served, that complete statistics
would have been impracticable. The
investigator in Georgia estimates
that between $4,000 and $4,000 Ne
groes eft that state in 1916-17, and
the number to leave Alabama during
the same time is estimated at. 75,-

000. State officials, however, made
higher estimates, placing tn number
to leave Georgia at $4,000, Alabama
10000 and Mississippi 100000.
Lack of labor in the North, due to
the cessation of immigration, was the
principal cause, the Investigators
agree. Among the causes operative
in the South to induce migration
were general dissatisfaction with
conditions, change of crop system,
lew wages, poor housing, poor
unsatisfactory, crop settle
ments, rough treatment, cruelty of
the law officers, unfairness in court
procedure, lynchings, desire to travel,
labor agents, aid from Negroes in
the North and the influence of the
Negro press.

How little the growing generation
thinks Of the influence of the teach
ings of mother and father, in the for
nation of character. How little the
great majority of the fathers and
mothers think of the responsibility
resting upon them. With, perhaps, a
word peevishly spoken by the father
to the son, he goes out for the day,
thinking of business and Of money
making The mother scolds and goes
on her way about the household af-
fairs and, in the afternoons, to her
gossip and her clubs The children
often are left to make their way un-
assisted by parental precept or ex-
ample. This is peculiarly true Of the
present day.
There was time when children
Knelt to lisp their prayers at the
mothers knee or listened to her soft
motherly teachings. There was time
when fathers delighted in calling theii'
children around them and telling
them tales of the heroes of by-gone
time. We do not do those things so
much now. We have not the time
We say that is the business of the

Southern dry leaders passed resolu-
ton to that effect yesterday. The reso-
ton which was introduced by E. Y

called for the death penalty for those
found guilty of selling wood alcohol
in whiskey and also demanded great
er activity on the part of govern

in enforcing the law. The conclud-
ing paragraph of the resolution states
that, "The prohibition enforcement

That the negro has better oppor-
tnnities in the South than elsewhere
in the country is evidenced by the
fact that negro, one Jim Wright, up
near DeLand, has just sold grove
for $4,000 retaining the fruit, which
is valued at $4,000. Wright has other
groves, and the DeLand News says
he is worth in the neighborhood of
100000. In what other part of the
country could negro do so well?
Wright is respected by the white
people of his section who take a
pride in the success he has achieved
by hard work and by attending to
his own business The people OF
the South are ever ready to help and
encourage any negro who shows that
kind Of spirit. Incidently, we note
that a negro boy, of near Gainesville
got a $25 cash prize for the best ear
of corn at the Florida State Fair II
all negroes were like those referred
toahere there would be no race prob.
lem to solve.
