*wss vCvss mm. a Another Achievement for PLUME ,/.j and MOBILOIL THE intrepid women motorists, Mrs, Sandford and Miss Christie, who conquered the wilds of Australia and are now touring New Zealand in their “Essex” Coach, used “Plume” Motor Spirit and Gargoyle Mobiloil throughout their strenuous journey. During the trip of 11,000 miles they crossed deserts, swamps, creeks, bush and mountains, but conquered all difficulties. The engine’s wonderful efficiency throughout proved the wisdom of employing “Plume” Motor Spirit, Gargoyle Mobiloil, and “Vacuum” Service. Mrs. Sandford says: “During this total trip of 11,05 8 miles, as you can imagine, all kinds of conditions that test the qualities of a car were encountered; rough condition*, where springs, frame, body and other essential parts were strained to their utmost. Smooth conditions where the engine was speeded up to its full capacity. Wet conditions from tropical rains, and on many occasions we were bogged for hours at a stretch and no help was available to pull us out. Dry conditions, when loose shifting sand made progress almost impossible. Hot conditions, when the climate of the Northern Territory was added to by several bush fires in grass higher than the car, which came near to putting an end to our trip for all time. Cold conditions on the Southern portions of the continent in mid-winter, when easy starting in the morning removed all anxiety as to the battery standing up to its work.” Every “Round-Australia ” Trip by Aeroplane or Cm has . been achieved on " Plume” Motor Spirit and Mobiloil VACUUM OIL COMPANY, PH- LIS airs m I /rrc i 3** if m KM m HOSTSNEES st//V ED'S mm.
