• 1069 MILES WITHOUT A STOP IN A HUPMOBILE. B This remarkable record was recentlj made by Mr H. P. Michael, Dayton, Ohio. After driving 550 miles, remaining at the wheel continually foi 26 hours and 10 minutes, Mr Michaei was relieved by his brother, Paul B Michael, who drove 200 miles. H. P » Michael then took the wheel and completed the 1069 miles. Not ever the car was stopped in this distance all fuel being taken on while in mo _ tion. The route to and /from Daytor included Toledo, Jamestown, Cincinnati, Eaton, and London. The tesi was completed between Columbus anc Dayton. The average consumption of gasoline was a gallon for every 2] miles and the average speed was 21.38 miles per hour. Mr Michael'i report is sworn to by officials in th< car. The car that will stand a tesi like this is surely worthy of the higl ;. reputation which the Hupmobile hai Lmade for itself. Whether you are in rterested in a Runabout or require i s six-passenger car, you must investi gate the Hupmobile if you wish t< sot tho best, WACKRILL & STEWs ART, Feilding, DUNK & PRINGLE Palmerston N., A.
