THINK WHAT THIS PROOF OF SAFETY MEANS 0 TO YOU HELL DRIVERS cciUxL -not SMASH tkt STANDARD CAPTAIN C. H, MILLER HELL DRIVER No. I, says... “The Chrysler-built and New-Zea-land assembled ALL STEEL Bodies mounted on a Chrysler-Plymouth standard passenger car chassis which l have crashed through flaming walls, over ramps and hurdles,and deliberately rolled over, during my New Zealand exhibitions, appear to suffer less damage than any other bodies I have tested. In nearly 400 roll-over demonstrations I have yet to find bodies stronger, safer and more reliable than these.” I imm SEE HOW THEY TRIED! i ' Mlgl mm JOE CAMPBELL HELL DRIVER No. 2, ,J\ says... " I, too, found the New Zealand a»> sembled bodies as safe as I expected, but I never ceased to be amazed at the tremendous strength of the. chassis, i simply could not damage the engine, frame, springs or steering. I am perfectly satisfied to roll over any number of them. The New Zealand assembled Chrysler, Plymouth and De Soto certainly came through the terrific tests with flying colours.” See how the/ tried ! They tried in London... Paris... Brussels ~. Stockholm ... Antwerp ~. in fact, the whole of the centres of Europe, India, Australia—and they have tried and failed too in New Zealand ! The American Hell-Drivers made the cars leap oyer ramps at SO miles an hour high into the air—landing on four wheels! —on two wheels! —on one wheel! —crashing the cars through a blazing wall of timber—rolling them over and over with roof, sides, and nose hitting the ground in turn... a series of hair-raising feats never attempted by any other car manufacturer. And after each rigorous test the Hell Drivers drove the cars away to even more startling thrills. ~ :: - THOUSANDS WERE HELD SPELLBOUND AT THE EXHIBITIONS IN NEW ZEALAND-WITNESSING THE MOST SPECTACULAR AND DRAMATIC MOTOR CAR TESTS EVER CONDUCTED IN THE DOMINION. These breath-taking demonstrations are deliberately presented to prove to the public the Strength, Rigidity and Perfect Safety of the ALL-STEEL BODY of the Chrysler, Plymouth and De Soto. Every car used in these demonstrations was a standard car, without special preparation, or without the ad-, dition of a single strengthening strut or brace. Had the bodies of these cars not been ALL-STEEL but merely a steel shell nailed or bolted on to a wooden framework they would have collapsed with the terrific strains and impacts. When you consider the purchase of your new car you should remember that—YOU AND YOUR FAMILY ARE SAFE WITHIN THE ALL-STEEL WALLS OF THE CHRYSLER, PLYMOUTH AND DE SOTO!

THE TO THINK TRAINS OF THOUGHT “Young man, when do you do your thinking?” was a question put by Thomas Hardy to a high-speed mass production novelist. The same remark applies to any kind of business or sport golf, tennis, football when a game calls for some planning. On the way to meeting or conference, where intelligent speech is required it is very helpful to have time to think. What better place for thought than in the cos#; carefree train? Taking thought adds cubits to the stature of a subject. •
