TELEPHONES: NORTH 0402-0403-0404 MEtropolitan 9900 Across the His is the story of 3500 miles of grueling automobile travel through the sandy coastal region of Southwest Africa, across the Kala« hari Desert and through N’Gamiland. Five naturalists, representing the Philadelphia Academy of Natural Sciences, three South Africans and three native boys were in the de Schauensee expedition. Seldom do white men visit this country. Seldom Zino-pads do white men penetrate to the last remote stronghold of the fast dis- appearing African Bushman. The trip was made in a Ford car and three Ford trucks. Traveling over rough, irregular trails —leaving those trails to crash through tangled, thorny underbrush— traversing dry, parched areas that had not seen rain in years—the Fords made a remarkable record for stamina and reliable mechanical operation. Through days of summer heat and F O Kalahari WIN WS nights of freezing cold, on occasions when the water supply was almost gone and delay would have been fatal, the Fords went steadily on and on. And, finally, when the long trip was over, they were sold at good prices in the little village of Maun. Never were sales made under sim- ilar conditions. The purchasers knew what the Fords had been through and sought proof of good condition after so many miles of strenuous travel. R D MOTO extraordinary care in manufz.cturing. Whether you buy a Ford for a scientific expedition along rough African trails, or for every-day motoring in a busy city, you will develop a very real and definite pride in its stamina and dependability. For here is a car that needs no coddling — no sparing from the rough places and the hard jobs. An impor- Y oufl‘,’o b So they were driven along the river trail, turned abruptly off into deep sand-beds—extricated without need of help—and subjected to other tests in this land of difficult transporta- tion. Sales were quickly made after such a demonstration. This is but one of many interesting stories about the ability of the Ford to stand up upder the severest driv- ing conditions. The extra demands of long, hard travel reveal she high quality of its materialf and tant consideration in its designing was the realization that it would be used by millions of people, in differ- ent ways, in every section of the world. So it is made with a reserve of strength and power beyond the needs of the average day. ‘ That is the Ford policy. Thatis the secret of the long-lived satisfactory performance of the Ford. Every part is built to endure —to give you many housands of miles of economical, card¥ree motoring. COMPAN
