FRENCH RESTORATION RAPID
Scientific American)

Thanks to insidious enemy propa- ganda- it has been whispered, here and there, that France was disposed to shirk the tasks of reconstruction and shift them to the shoulders of her al- lies.
 Now, those who know the French and their glorious past do not need to be told that this is u lie, as unjust as It is malicious. We have manifold evidence that this great people know how to bear reverses with national for titude and dignity. Hence we are not surprised to learn from official sources that the courage and energy with which France faced reconstruction problems of the Franco German war are being shown in facing the infinite ly greater problems that have been en- gendered by the great world war. | The devastated area in the north of France comprised some AZ million acres of land which was totally unfit for cultivation, the rich top soil being
 buried, and the whole area furrowed with trenches and criss-crossed with barbed wire. Nevertheless, one million acres have been returned to the farm- CTS and E million acres are ready for seeding. Of 55o,000 houses destroyed 1 60,000 have been rebuilt. Of the 324e kilometers of railroads and 1875 kilo-
 meters of canals destroyed, 2,106 and | 700 kilometers, respectively, have been restored

buys the car. A staff of engineers studied the car during these 25o.o
 miles of test to determine every re- finement and improvement that might be necessary to make the car when it went on the market free from service troubles and of assured economy in operation and perfect ease or riding because of the new three-point springs.
 The value of 250,000 miles of ex- haustive testing may further be judged from the comparison with the usual custom of sending new car into the market after it has been pounded on roads in some 25,000 to 15,000 miles of demonstration. Overland 4, it is said, is the first car that has gone on the market with a pedigree of perfect pro- duction after two years of constant testing.
 The section of the country picked for these tests was in natures laboratory of the southwest-Colorado, New Mex ico and Arizona. There nature seems unfinished. q rough, rock -strewn, tor tured country. It was there that the engineers decided that the new three point suspension springs could be given a supreme test of the unexcelled ease of riding which they have now introduced.
 Accordingly a fleet of Overland As
 were sent into this section. A staff of ! engineers accompanied the cars to watch every hour of performance. In | Colorado the cars were set to work scaling mountain sides, twisting and turning around the hairpin turns of
 the precipitous cliff and mountain
 sides and rolling over the boulder strewn roads. There was plenty of
 mud, seas of it, black and sticky as glue, hub and running board deep. In New Mexico. there were great stretch
 es of deep shifting sand, which threat
 en to rack and twist the frames of or
 dinary motor cars. In Arizona, there
 were great stretches of plain, innu
 merable river streams to ford, worse
 mud than ever before and stretches of
 road that were so rough and tortuous
 that they resembled saw-tooth blades of scraggy, sharp rocks. No better

If automobiles are any criterion Of wealth and success Phoenix may pride tself in being very fortunate city he increase just within the lase year Df the number of vehicles on our streets, Is a remarkable compliment to .he prosperity of the city.
 To some local citizens, however, this condition is of serious import. To po- licemen the increase of traffic means that the safety of the insignificant pedestrian is made more hazardous it means also that women and children must be more carefully protected while crossing the highways to say nothing of the many complex details of traffic rules and regulations that the police must carry out.
 Tt will all be very simple" say po- lice officials smilingly, If local auto mobile owners will cooperate with us in endeavoring to make out traffic the best regulated in this state. thus in- surfing a city that will be safety first In practice as well as theory.
 Evidently too little attention is paid to the brakes where the average mo torist is concerned. Every driver in he city should appreciate the neces-

REMOVING SPRINGS

This is the time of year for giving the springs dose of graphite or other lubricant, and here is an easy method of removing the springs. Place a flat bar of steel under the frame just back of the spring horns and then place d jack under the bar, when the front end may be lifted, relieving the springs of weight. A wooden horse may now be placed under the iron bar to support the front of the car, and the rprings may be removed without fear of the structures collapsing.

 Its Charm in
 Action
 Judge the Essex exactly as you would any fine quality car.
 Match it's speed with any car. Try 1t on hills that only cars noted as supreme climbers ever attempt. Note it's spaciousness, and the luxury of its interior fittings. Ask owners who have had their cars long enough to learn Essex en- durance.
 Surely you will then agree that the Essex es- tablishes and occupies alone distinctive new field
 Moderate Price and Performance
 of the Highest Order Every sense of pride and satisfaction that comes with the possession of fine car quality, and performance that gives place to none, is yours with the Essex All now know that no light car and not many of the finer cars equal the Essex in construction, in performance or in durability.
 The demand everywhere exceeds production, and 1t may be necessary to wait for delivery for either the five passenger touring the new road ster, just out, or the sedan. But it is better to wait little while and get an Essex than to ac- cept second choice car that you may after wards regret
Arizona republican., 1919-11-16

Exclude all the praise you have heard for the Essex.
 Then ride in it, and judge for yourself. The uninfluenced verdict of the ride, will content us.
 We urge this with reason. For many who inquire about the Essex expect to see a large car. They expect to hear costly price,
 That is because Essex owners and admirers, invariably compare it's performance to certain large, high-priced cars, notable for qualities of speed, power, hill-climbing and durability.

Its Fine Car Endurance

You will make those same comparisons your self, after ride For only among cars of ad- vanced price range will you find qualities by which to describe the way the Essex performs
 Certainly no one would think of rating it with other lightweight automobiles Its appearance instantly settles that It stamps the Essex in class alone Yet, neither is the Essex a large car Therefore it offers the advantages of economy and liveliness exclusive to light weight automobiles. But it is also reliable car.
 Habitual skeptics, who never buy car in the first year of production, fearing development of faults now buy the Essex. In ten months, indi- vidual cars have rolled up 10000 and 12OOO miles without any repairs whatever and more
