Fathers and SONS in the Mitchell
Lewis concern have operated factories
for S2 years.
We have built millions of vehicles in
volving close competition. And we
succeeded beyond others through eff
cheney.
In 1903 when we entered motor car
building-we aimed to minimize fac
tory costs in that line. We knew the
time would come when supreme eff
cheney would make one car the master
of its class.
It has taken 13 years, because the
line was new. Countless machines had
to be invented countless ideas evolved
It took ten years to arrive at settled
model, after building Fouls, Skies and
Fights.
In the Mitchell Light Six we found, it
seems, the type that has come to stay.
And we are equipped to build that type
in the finest way at the lowest cost. The
evidence lies in the many Mitchell feat
ures which are not found in other cars
The Blackfoot optimist., 1916-06-22

Dozens OF separate costs and profits were included
IN car Thus the buyer got scanty value compared
with other lines
But there has for years been over-,emand The
value in cars was not scrutinze closely Competition
forced none to close figuring. So factory efficiency
mas been little considered amCng of the Mitchell
grade.
lnsatlate demand is all that tiled this industry
through years of such matchless extravagance

THE MOST ORIGINAL CLUB IN
AMERICA

A writer in the June American
Magazine says:
There exists in one Of our great
western cities unique secret club
called by its members the Get-Out
and Get-On club. 1t was organized
L years ago by 10 am bitious men
who looked upon themselves as not
yet having won success. Mem bership
for Il years has been limited to so.
The rules are what makes this club
different. No members may call
himself a success until the club
votes him one, and when the club
votes any member a success, he is
expelled and his place is filled by
another. But before a success is eX-
PEELED a dinner is given in his honor
and to welcome the new member.
At this dinner the success must read
paper explaining to mis- fellows
how and why he won. These papers
are preserved"
