THE GRAY CAR, At £230 the “Gray” car is in a class by itself. A handsome car, the Gray, with fine lines, roomy seating, wide doors, and nickel fitments. Extreme flexibility and power in abundance, with not less than 30 miles per gallon of benzine. These features tell their owji story : —Eighteen years of successful engine building produced the Gray vibrationlcss motor—all reciprocating parts balanced to give a silk-like smoothness. The Timken Rear “Banjo'’ Axle—accessible by the removal of hut four studs—is found only in other cars at £430 and above. The lighting ant! ignition systems in the Gray are standard Wcstingliousc. Selective three-speed anti reverse sliding gear transmission. Timken Taper Bearings throughout. The economy of the light car with all the refinements of a heavy one—this is the Gray Car. The joys of luxurious motoring and the pride of fine car ownership at low cost and inexpensive—these are for you, the Gray achievement! Mark Sprot and Co., Ltd., Sole West Const IVjtributnrs.

A good story relative to the power of organisation was told by Captain Colbc'c'c at the Fanners’ Union meeting (states the “Poverty Bay Herald”). The president of the Auckland branch, when travelling in California, had reason to go a journey by coach. The driver was an expert with the whip and amused himself by flit-icing flies off the horses’ ears, and cutting leaves from trees they were passing. At last they came to a hornet's nest, and oneof the passengers said. “See what you can do with that ?” “Not on your life,” replied the driver, “they’re organised.” (Laughter).
