years of ordinary service.

The Washington herald., 1916-06-11

John ". Bate is one of the ablest men
who ever entered Mctordom. He has
for 80 years held the topmost place as
an efficiency engineer in machinery.
He has devoted 13 years to the
Mitchell. He created this ideal
$4,000, 900 plant. He has designed II
Mitchell models. And he and his staff
have worked out in this car more than
700 improvements.
Any motor enthusiast who fails to see
the result is doing himself an injustice.

More Than Economy

Don't think of efficiency as mere fac
tory economy. 1t means more than that
in car building.
Mr.. Bate has cut our factory costs in
two. He has built and equipped here a
45-acre plant which stands as the model
of Motordom.
You see the result in the matchless
value offered in this Mitchell. You see
it in the rs costly extras which other
cars omit. No other factory in America
could give you such car at our price.
But the car itself reveals Mr.. Bates
genius in far more appealing way.

ARRANGEMENT OF THE HAIR
Various Ideas Which viii Commend
Themselves to the Woman Who
Dresses With Taste.

Every woman should study her face,
forehead, ears, the set of her head on
her shoulders. Then she should dress
her hair to hide any unattractive an
giles or features and to, accentuate the
well-formed and attractive features.
To some the hair is more becoming
if the greater part of the forehead
shows. To others the hair drawn down
so as to cut" the forehead proves
more becoming.
If the ears are not beautifully
shaped the hair should be brought
over them by all means. If covering
the entire ear forms an angle that is
not becoming to the face, the lobe OF
the ear should be allowed to show.
The eyes are particularly affected
by the manner of combing the hair.
Some eyes, especially the almond
shaped, are most beautiful when the
hair comes over the forehead, almost
touching the eyebrows. Other eyes
appear larger and give forth more
brilliancy if the hair is drawn we'll
away. Parting the hair in the center
or on the side also has great influence
on the eyes.
And the nose! That is placed in
such a variety of positions and is it.
self of so many shapes and sizes that
there seems no set rule to go by. The
principal thing to avoid is accentuat
ing the length of large nose and the
smallness of small nose. Also to
remember that the profile should be
one of woman's greatest attractions
If the hair on the back of the head is
dressed out from the head too far and
too low the profile of large nosed
person is entirely spoiled; and the
head looks disigured.
A well-shaped head makes the art OF
hair dressing much less difficult than
it is for the person with poorly
shaped head. But the right puffs
braids, knots and swirls of hair will
make any woman's head appear to be
of classic shape.
