Supplement to Land & W ater March 2i, 191^ 
— When Germany so 
rudely interrupted in 
1914 , 
the Austin car had attained an immense popu- 
larity. The Austin " 20-" was rc-cognised to Iw 
an achievement of the highest automobile en- 
gineering skill. The majestic conquest of tUe 
Alps by a 2(1 li.p. model adilcd laurels to this 
car. Avh'ich had already a wonderful record to it.s 
credit. The Austin " 2<J " was bidding fair to be 
the most iwpular car of its class on British 
roads when Germany so rudely interrupted. 
' Cut this iwpularity is " to 
be continued in our next " 
— our next il) h p. model 
which will be i)laced on t he 
market at the cl-ise ol 
hostilities. and which 
will be even a liner and 
more cilrcicnt example of 
car design an<l construc- 
tion than its predecessors. 
.\n echo of Austin pre-war popularity is reflected 
in the number of inquiries and applications we 
have had lor early delhery of our new after-war 
model. May we not add your name to the List ?

Is your Thresher

Fj^VEN the THRESHER- the 
J admitted best of all campaign 
coats — may wear out, after years 
of active service. It is well to re- 
member, therefore, that the 
Thresher of to-day surpasses the 
original Thresher as far as that 
surpassed its many imitators. It's 
the new interlinio;; that makes the 
difference the all-and-always 
pliant 'Melcam' that cannot 
crackle and that water can't be 
even force-pumped through.
