They took u black suitcase which
had he initials E. L. NJ. on the
outside, containing their clothes.
The police were notified. but so
far have found no cue to the mys-
tcrious disappearance. They are
working on the theory that the three
young women were stage struck"
and probably remained in the city
to seek work in the chorus Of some
theatrical organization. Julia's sis

known actress and was formerly in
the chorus Of Florence Mills revue

FRIDAY of this week will unques-

tant days in the entire life Of the
automobile industry. On that day,
complete details of the new Ford
will be available in this city.
You will be surprised when you
get the facts about the new Ford
car, for you never have dreamed that
such really fine car could be pro-
duced at low price. As Henry Ford
himself says
THE new Ford car embodies the
best results Of our experience in
making Is, o0oy 600 automobiles. We
consider it our most important con-
tribution thus far to the progress Of
the motor industry, to the prosperity
of the country, and to the daily
welfare Of millions of people
The new Ford car is distinctly a
new and modern car, designed to
meet new and modem conditions.
1t is more than a new automo-
bile. It IS the advanced expression
of wholly new idea in modern,
economical transportation.

except, of course, for the engine

are used in the new Ford than in
almost any other car, regardless
Of price. ).
We ARB able to sell this new Ford
car at low price because we have
found new ways to give you greater
value without a great increase in our
own costs. Because we own our
own ore mines, coal mines and
timber lands and the source Of most
Of our raw materials. Because we
make virtually every part used in the
new Ford car. Because it IS the Ford
policy to make small profit On :
large number of cars, rather than .
large profit on small number Of car.
There is nothing like it IL

No other manufactured can possibly
duplicate the new Ford car It the
Ford price because no other manu-
facturer does business the way We
do. The public made this business
possible. We believe we should
share our profits with the public by
continually giving greater and greater
value for the money.
There are good and substantial rea.

car IS the most unusual value ever

the sum total Of all we have learned
about motor car building in the life
time of the Ford business.
Some Of the features Of the
me1v Ford car
In this connection we call your
particular attention to the new
engine; the new pump, splash and
gravity oil system; the multiple dry
disc clutch; the new pump and
thermo-syphon cooling system; the
new battery, coil and distributors
ighition; the low center of gravity
and minimum inspiring weight
which combine with the hydraulic
shock disorders to make the new
Ford such an easy-riding car; the
irreversible steering gear, with the
column and the housing Of the steer
ing gear mechanism welded into
single all-steel unit the seamless, all
steel torque tube; the new one-piece,
welded, steel-spoke wheels; the
three-quarters-doating rear axle in

strength; the theft-proof coincidental
lock; and the aluminium pistons
which were selected after many tesn

noisseurs Of art heralded the discovery
of the first authentically known paint
ing in oils Of the fifteenth century
master, Jehan Perreal, contemporary
of Leonardo da Vinci, whose master
pieces have been sought by the French
government for many years.
The painting. a study of medieval

lery by Maurice H. Goldblatt of Chi
cago. an art expert, who had been
asked by Edouard Herriot. present
French minister of fine arts, to be on
the lookout for Perreal's work.
The painting was bought by local
dealer in 1912 from Prince Massino in
Rome It was ascribed to the anony-
NOUS Master of Moulin" Art critics
believe many masterpieces now at
tributed to that unknown master were
really the work of Perreal.
