One thing we can't forget in buying
motor car is the pride of ownership.
The automobile is a pleasure vehicle
and it spoils the fun to be hopelessly
out rivaled by a car that is smaller and
cost less to buy
And for, the same reason there is
lot of satisfaction in having car that,
though it is smalled and its cost is less,
does out-perform all of its class and has
few rivals among the large, costlier
automobiles.

So Don't Forget
This Fact

The Essex in every particular, save in
nrice and weight, is comparable to cars
that cost much more. And it possesses
the further advantage in economy that
comes from its lighter weight.
Remember, $4,000 owners are telling
of more good qualities about it than any
Essex salesman can tell you. Essex
owners will advise you to buy an Essex
in either the five passenger touring,
the sedan or the roadster models.

Note the Advantages
of Such a Car

The Essex is not large car, neither
is it tiny. No space is wasted. No eX-
ira weight is used Neither passengers
or driver are crowded. They have
plenty of room on the seats and for their
legs. The size of the Essex gives it
many advantages, including moderate
cost and operating economy. And
think how much more convenient to
drive. 1t slips through traffic that a
larger car can not negotiate. 1t can be
parked in space that others can not
squeeze into. 1t turns in a short
radius.
The Bennington evening banner. (Bennington, Vt.) 19??-1961, 1919-11-12
That Is Why You Hear
So Much of Essex

Anyone who has ever driven much
knows that the greatest delight, where
speed is concerned, comes with the
ability to best rival with extra bursts
of speed. 1t is the situations which
show cars ability to out-perform
others that give greatest cause for
pride.
And knowing that the Essex does eX-
cell most cars, even many that are
larger and that cost more, there is little
wonder owners speak of it as they do.
Essex Quality Didn't
Just Happen
The Essex. performs as it does because
it is built to the highest type of car
standard. It's size and price has meant
no sacrifice in quality, durability or
comfort
Every construction detail is compar-
able to one of the worlds most famous
fine cars.
That is why the Essex is so speedy,
so nimble and so enduring. 1t is why

The Great Event at st. Margaret's
on Sunday will be the Administration
of the Rite Of Holy Confirmation by
The Right Reverend Theodore Irving
Reese, Bishop Coadjutor Of the Dio-
cese of Southern Ohio. About four
teen candidates will be presented by
the Vicar. The class will be one of
the largest in the history Of st. Mar

The Induction Service announced to

just reasons. A sermon on morals
and example of individuals was

questionings from the congregation,
many of whom seemd shocked with
surprise and searched their own lives

The vicar held that the young girls

astounding in its reach and power.
And this peril is to be found in The
careless lives of parents, in the slack
