AN OPPORTUNITY. The fact that the "Star" Commercial Chassis just landed in Wellington are built iu accordance with War Ottice specifications has aroused a great ileal of interest. Whoa war broke out tho authorities realised how necessary motor traction was, but pre-war design did not reach expectations. The experience- of the Allies with motor vehicles was carefully recorded, and to-day the machines in use are designed accordingly. No Britnianufacturer is allowed to-build vehicles except in accordance with War Office specifications, as tho Military Authorities reserve the right to commandeer the chassis even when lying at tho London Docks ready for export. When further supplies will be available nobody can fitiy, but all tho evidence indicates tho fact that during tho next few months tho Army will want all the motors that are obtainable. Full particulars on apIpi .cation to TNGLIS BROS. AND CO., LTD., 21-26 Harris Street, Wellington.— Advt.
