Tourists throughout the world have long since heard of the charm and beauty of our New Zealand seen- f ery. This statement is almost a commonplace were it not that the repetition does not pall—it only serves to bring the vastness, variety and j charm of New Zealand's natural glories 'into greater contrast with those of other countries. In a booklet published by the Hupp Motor Car Company, of Detroit', Michigan, U.S.A.. entitled "Bound the World in a Hupmobile," we read the following. After touring Australia, the writer says: "Messrs Hanlon. and Jones toured across the North and South Islands of New Zealand—a trip that proved in many ways the most remarkabV of the tour." He continues: "Hills everywhere, as far as the eye can see, around and beyond vou abound in the North Island." "Hills of all kinds, from short, steep pitches to long steady climbs which C. D. Gli 1 .- ' den, a world famed tourist, declares ! are the worst in the worl-1." And so the story goes on telling of the ' . wonderful triumphs over road diffiI culties by the "Hupp." A truly marvellous car. you will say. Why ! not? The makers guarantee it to i stand the wear and tear of almost any ■ road—and some of those hereabouts ' are bad enough. The sturdy little ' Hupp is fitted with a wonderful en--1 gine which will run 800 miles without ' re-filling the radiator. Its light rid- #' ing qualities, ease of control and '. noiselessness make it a perfect tour- ■ ing car. Fuller particulars and the afore-mentioned booklet may be had > from A. Ha trick and Co., Ltd., North ? Island Agents, Wanganui, and Wake- ,° field Street, opposite Town Hall, Wells lington.

Think of the hundreds of hands employed ingrowing the wool, shearing, classing, selling, manufacturing material, then making KAIAPOI Clothing and retailing KAIAPOI Gools. Yes .think— and act as- one's good genee would suggfs-
