MITCHELL INSTRUCTION
BOOK DISTRIBUTION

That the Mitchell-Lewis Motor company
hit upon tho most popular scheme of i'm
parting information on the cars and oper-
alton of an automobile when It put out ita
fifty-page brochure is made known at the
general office at Racine.
THE purchaser of Mitchell cars Is given
a card to fill out and send TO the factory"
said an official of the company. HE
must attend to this himself. 1t Is held
that II the dealer writes for the instruc-
ton book the owner is not so likely to
regard it as a valuable asset as IL he
himself applied for II"
Since more than 1900 owners OF the
new Mitchell are listed In the United
States and almost five times that many
instruction books have been distributed
upon owners card applications, there
must be very general use of the book
by others. I don't marvel over this, for
the book is more comprehensive and ex-
planatory than were some OF the ponder
Gus and technical ones that used to be
sold for 81 volume when the motor car
industry was in its early days. Every
possible trouble that man might have
with an automobile is designated in this
book along with the other things, Small
wonder that an interested car owner will
read It from ikiver to kiver."

Startling Spark
Plug Facts Given

The state OF Michigan claims thirty
three large manufacturers Of motor cars.
Twenty-four of the thirty-three use a
Michigan made spark plug known as the
A @ plug. Sixteen Of the thirty-three
builders are located in Detroit alone. OF
this number all but four use A C plugs.
This. conclusive proof of speriority-
this wonderful record is held by the
Champion Ignition company of Flint,
Mich, manufacturers Of A C plugs. Not
only are these plugs used on Michigan
built cars. but they will be found as
standard equipment on most OF the high
class cars made In America.
Mr.. Champion GLAZING there are only a
few makes of cars not equipped with A c
plugs, The present A c plug popularity
has been acquired purely on quality and
performance.
II is to the interest OF every car builder
20 equip his car with the best ignition
system possible. It is the heart Of the
motor-the element that goesfar TOWARD
spelling success or failure for the car.
Builders recognize the folly Of using poor
plugs.

"Our policy in Mexico is, by and

cation of it is concerned there has not
been one single thing done that POSTER
ty viii not brand aSerroneous. Our att

ton. "In the university, Madero got a
glimpse, but just glimpse, of the Am
crican point Of view. Returning to
Mexico he published, in 1908, book
protesting against the right of Das to
reelection to the presidency. This ere
ated sensation and led to Madcro 5
candidacy and the long succession Of
events that has followed"
That the United States must recog-
nize, in solution of this problem, that
Mexico is a part of the whole Of Latin
America and take these other nations
into consideration, was the principle
presented by Wilmington. He pointed
out that the building of the Panama
Canal and the growth of South Ameri-
can countries had given a new angle to
the Monroe doctrine and in any dealing
with Mexico the other nations of the
Western hemisphere would have to he
taken into account. While he suggest
ed the same solution as that used in
Cuba; of our entering the country and
attempting to thoroughly renovate the
conditions, he did not advocate such
procedure.
Outlining some Of the factors in the
makeup of the population, the general
characteristics of the people and the
history underlying the present comph
cations, he made no definite proposal
of solution.
