new MITCHELL CARS
FOR ALL four SEASONS
Luxury Models Lavish in Finish, De-
sign and Appointments.

The new Mitchell closed bodies for all
four seasons are out, and these new
creations show all the coming trends to
be expected from John W. Bate, the IA
nous Mitchell designer.
Every Mitchell body. closed or open,
represents the finest attainable in that
class Of car. The luxury models are
lavish in their finish, design and appoint
ments.
The trend seems to be toward four-sea-
son types-cars for winter and summer.
for fair days and storms. One Mitchell
car OF this type serves for all the year
around. It Is never too cold for It, never
too stormy and never too warm.
The Mitchell Sedan. which is the
springfield type, is finished, upholstered
and. equipped like the finest limousine, but
the seats are all inside. so anyone can
drive It while sitting with the rest The
car has a dome light. the front seats
divide, and with the two extra seats the
car comfortably carries seven.
The plate glass sides IN this car CON-
phetely disappear when one wants an
open touring car, and this change can be
made in a moment.
The Mitchell oabriolet is another four
season model It Is a three-passenger
coupe, with an auxiliary seat for still
another passenger, and changes readily
into very smart roadster; the top drops
back. and the side windows drop down
into the doors.
The Mitchell limousine Is the finest
example Of a luxury car. All wool whip
cord upholstering with silk drop curtains,
three electric lights, telephone. toilet and
vanity case, flower vases, smoking sets,
waltham clock, arm rests and auxiliary
seats that face either way are only few
OF the dainty touches that make this car
stand out from the throng.

OUR MOUNTAIN CHILDREN.
Plea Made for Aid for Unfortunate
Boys and Girls,

Editor The Washington Herald: In this
great age Of preparedness should we not
first prepare our people to make good and
useful citizens? The mountain boys and
girls have no chance unless we more for
tunate citizens come to their rescue, and
we are holding out helping hand to
these people whereby great good can be
accomplished, not only for then individu-
ally. but for the whole United States as
well.
The condition of these poor mountain
whites is appalling; abject poverty and
dirt. they simply exist, that's all. The
little boys only and 6 years old are
allowed to chew tobacco and smoke; in
fact, some Of them seem to exist for n
while on this stimulant. OF course, these
children's minds as well as bodies are
stunted in growth, and the outcome OF all
this ignorance is a race that is a detri-
ment to the country. and criminals often
come from such conditions.
By establishing schools in the noun
famous districts we teach them the bet
ter and more sanitary method Of living,
and by education we arouse in them the
pride Of their scotch-Irish ancestry,
which from isolation has slumbered and
IN few years will present to these great
United States of America a band Of
Americans from Anglo-Saxon voters and
patriots.
Country life brings the boy Into contact
with practical things and II given an edu-
cation he sees farther and more broadly.
His physical scope becomes mental also,
and thus we see why the country boy has
really larger value
By placing schools and teachers in
these mountainous districts these poor
boys and girls will be able to receive an
aducation and by so doing bring forth
the best that is in them, and instead OF
being OF no purpose to their State OF
country they will be Of some consequence
raised out Of their poor environment and
made better citizens in every way. They
will be made helpers instead of idlers.
Shouldn't every true-born American be
proud to help by giving to this great
philanthropic work. Boxes will be placed
In the different stores Of the city for the
cause. and hope every one will respond
generously to the uplift, betterment, and
education Of these poor mountain white
people.
VIRGINIA TRIMBLAE,
President OF Cause for Betterment and
Education of Mountain Whites
