Motorists and even boys on the street hail the Essex with some such greeting as "There is an Essex." Curiosity in the car that possesses quality and performance at moderate cost and with out the expense and weight of such cars as formerly were the only ones that possessed those advantages, has given way to openly voiced admiration. Essex Owners Are Its Salesmen Atfirst it was what people who had seen the Essex said about it that led to its popularity.

The heat "" passes easily to the papers within. BUT a filing cabinet with asbestos placed between two walls of steel prevents flames and heat from reaching your records and letters. This asbestos lining is an ex clusive feature of "Y and E" Fire-Wall Steel Filing Cabinets. A plain wall of steel is excellent for oil stoves but is poor for filing cabinets, where fire protection is necessary. It conducts the heat to the very papers you expect it to protect. That is why we build our "Yand E" FIRE-WALL Cabinets with double walls and an interlining of asbestos so that users of steel equipment may also have fire and heat protection. For use where protection is unnecessary, we ourselves make a great variety of plain-wall steel cabinets, so we know exactly what they will and will not do. This asbestos construction is found only in "Yand E" FIRE-WALL STEEL FILING CABINETS It goes all around at top, bottom, front, sides and back. It renders these cabinets three to thirty times as fire and heat resistant as any ordinary steel cabinet made, our own plain wall cabinet included. Cost no more Though "Y and E" Fire-WniJ Cabinets protect your records better, they cost no more. In spite of tho asbestos construction in spite of four additional features, these better cabinets are sold at the price of ordinary filing equipment One fire would convince you..
