eating and unusual trans-continental tourneys la recent automobile history. Eleven states crossed, with 11 their variety rough country roads, broken mountain trails. 6tretchs of mud and weary wastes of desert-la.nd , yet the car arrived In San Francisco ready and fit to make a return trip. This great record is all the more remarkable because of the conditions of this economy teat. Spanning the continent has usually h-een a contest against ttmn. The Overland run wa dlr?ct?d against high costs of gas. oil, tires and upkeep. The object of the run was to determine a national standard of eronomv

and tamlna for the lightweight car, a ': class la wbioh the Overland has created j

a sensation Deoause or Its many new features, including the Triplex Spring, designed to ward off the Jars and Jolts of the roughest roads and thus j.rolong

the life of the car while prelecting passengers from the usual road discomforts In these days of increasing talk about the scarcity of gasoline, the Overland record of 27.2 miles to the gail-n of gas in a continuous night-and-day punishing drive of 3.442 miles can not fall Id have a pocket-deep interest for every man and woman who drives a motor car. Thi3 run establishes the lightweight Overland as ideal not alone for its economy in city traffic but for its combination of etamln and economy in the most abusive test that cotild tx? dovised. '

The Overland record was not made bjr experienced drivers, selected by tae faotory. The compiay wished to find cut what the cr ccm!d do under the worst conditions of operation Accordingly, each distributor and dealer whoa territory was crossed furnished a driv-

Ca ' er' T'1're wer" K-od drivers and bad: s-l j men who sived the car and others who

In crossing the eleven states on the

I route this Overland was driven by 25

different men, none of whom had ever

! I cf performance for the ordinary man's j ability in driving, rather than what- ! eiver record trained crews of experts

have accc-mpifshed.

i?Tht and day. this Overland was

always westward. The car was,

1 s-.'pned only for the refilling of the saroline tank and change of drivers. n the sidt9 of th car were painted the words: "Overland Economy Run.

Throughout the run the meat careful check was kept of the gasoline and oil consumed. Study of the log o? the

Frc-m Rer.o. Nev to San Francisco, a strong head-wind blowing, the Overland made 32.2 miles to the gajlon. That with the milease recorded fro.-n New York to Pittsburgh. gives the Overland a grand economy gasoline average of 27.2 mllea.
