Just a Ride Makes
A Hundred New Owners Are Added Daily
-Each a Warm Supporter of the Essex
Men Want the Essex
Shirley no car has ever equaled the Essex
An the -way it has been indorsed by the public
From the very first it has been advertised
just as we said it would be, by what people
lilac! to say for it.
You remeber we announced the Essex
would have to speak for its self. Its fate
was left with the people. And now you can
judge wliat the verdict has been.
ONE HUNDRED OWNERS
ADDED DAILY
Deliveries at this writing exceed 10.000
cars. An average of 100 new buyers are get
ting Essex ears every d'ay.
Such a production would be large for many
older organisations. But it is not half equal
to the demand for the Essex.
SWEDEN ORDERED 5 THEN
CABELED FOR 75
The first shipment of Essex ears reached
Sweden a few days ago. The initial order
was five. But on the day they were unloaded
the dealer calbeled for 75 to he shippel im-
■cdiatly.
That is significant for Sweden isone of the
oountries.where gasoline costs nearly a dollar
a gollon. Even before the war European
countries did not take readily to American
cars. Only the light, small, inexpensive cars
had a market then.
Cost of operation was the big item. Gas
oline and oil prices made large cars imprac
tical.
But the Essex just met the need. If has
the sturdiness and dependability Enroqean
had never attributed! to moderate priced
1 American cars. The Essex met their demand
fer economy and low operating cost. »
AND THOSE ADVANTAGES
ARE IMPORTANT HERE
'Americano rather than put up with the
wertcmiary objections of low priced ears,
more willingly paid the price that obtained
the degree of elegance, comfort and perform
ance they wanted.
But the Essex seems to have filled the need
mand for moderate first cost. It meets the
as we expects? it would. It answers the de-
inexpensive cost and maintenance situation
and, of course, it gratifies the taste in appear
ance and performance.
HOW EVERYONE TALKS
FOR THE ESSEX
They tell their friends what they have
learned about it.
Any denier can tell you of person after per
son who has plaeed orders with him as the
result of a ride they have had with some
friend. As a test of how it stands in the
opinion of motorists in general, or even the
man in the street, mention the Essex any
where you might be in such a way as to pro
voke a discussion of it.
The result -will he interesting, You aren’t
likely to hear a single adverse criticism. But
you will probably conclude everyone is inter
ested in selling,you an Essex.
THIS IS THE ESSEX
SELLING FORCE
It is just what you will hear from any
group of motorists. Everyone seems bent on
telling everyone else what a fine car the
Essex is.
Note the manner in which' they praise.it.
Beople judge it in comparison with other ears
of merit that they know.
That probably explains why Essex perform
ance and quality is compared to large, high
priced automobiles. ,
There is no other measure by which Essex
can he described
When will yortffake vonr ride in an Essex!
Your enthusiasm will he as great as it now
is with close to a million others.
Essex boosters grow daily—and thus they
swell Essex sales.

he will be enabled' to render
much greatr and broader service
of usefulness to his pople and to
his state whom he lias served' so
long and so well.”

attitude a. an American ottlien baa
been Justified after a trial which
raised every Issue agatnet him that
Ingenuity and research could Invent.'
Outside the courthouse crowds had
gathered during the evening hours to
await news of tha Jury which had bean
closeted In oonferenoe since morning.
As the courtroom emptied after the
announcement of Abe verdlot and the
news of the decision rendered spread,
shear .after, cheer broke forth and a
band, returning from a plenio, stopped
to add Its brass notes to the din.
There was a tense moment when
the Jurors filed Into the box for the
last time. Their foreman, In a voice
shaking with the emotions of the
moment, spoke In such a low lone
that he could scarcely be heard. The
clerk read back the formal verdict:
•-Ton do say open year oath that
the said defendant The Tribune oom-
pany, le gality In- the manner and
form as the. satd.plaintiff- hath In hid
declaration la this ease oomplatned
against him and you aseeas the dam
ages of the -said plaintiff on ooeaelon
of tha premises ovar and atovrhli
coats and charges by him about this
suit and tn hla behalf expended, at
the earn of atx oents damages."
The editorial hi which The Tribune
attacked Henry Ford and branded him
aa an scar oh let was printed tn lfil(.
The case has been fought through
several courts on one point or another
ever alnoe, finally arriving through a
change of venue naked by The Tribune
In Mt Clemons.
The charge which Judge Tocher
made to the Jury dealt mainly with
the laws of libel and contained among
others, the following points:
-The Tribune claims that they care
fully Inquired as to what Mr. Ford’s
attitude was going to he aa to the
care of his men who Joined the na
tional guard and that they based the
editorial characterising him as an
anarchist on that Information. They
admit the publication and Insist that
It was trne and therefore Justified;
and that even if not true It was fair
comment upon a matter of pnbllo In
terest, either of which defenses are
sufllolent If proven true. The burden,
however, la upon the defense when
they attempt to make either of the de
fenses mentioned. They must estab
lish either the truth of the charge
they made, or that It wae fair com
ment within the meaning of that
term,
“A newspaper has the same right
as an Individual to its opinions and
oonvictlons—no moro and no lose.”
The court further Informed the Jury
that if they found that the charge was
untrue they must find for the plaintiff.
Ho declared that there was nothing
ambiguous about the editorial. It
called Mr. Ford an anarohist and the
only way tho defendant could eticape
being found guilty of libel was to
prove that charge. He Bald further
that the Jury must accept the popular
conception of the meaning of tho term
“anarchist.”
Counsel for The Chloago Tribune
made no offort to appeal the caee and
aocepted the verdict ae It stood.
