Now Double Strength

And now we announce, in each
important part, 1907 over-suength.
Mr.. Bate has spent three years in
doubling our margins OF safety.
Now every part is twice as strong
as need be, proved by conclusive
tests.
That means lifetime car.
See these results at our Show ex-
hibit, and Judge for yourself what
they mean to you. These late
model Mitchells, in a hundred ways,
differ from rival cars.

Hundreds of Extras

f1uU0ISuS vi LhNdo
In all the latest Mitchells you
will find hundreds of extras,
paid for by factory efficiency.
You will find 81 features which
nearly all cars omit.
You will find this year "a per
cent added luxury, due to saw
ings in our new body plant.
You will find, for the first time,
100 per cent over-strength IN
all important parts.
You will find Bate cantllever
springs, not one of which has
ever broken.
There are over 440 parts made
of toughened steel. There is
wealth of Characterization.
There is a heat fixed finish.
There is extra-grade leather.
Also many exquisite touches.
Does Efficiency Pay?
We present these extras to
answer the question, Does fac
tory efficiency pay'
You will find in the Mitchell,
as compared with rivals, at
least 20 per cent extra value.
You will find unique features
which, on this years. output,
will cost us 81, 900, 900.
New-York tribune. [volume] (New York [N.Y.]) 1866-1924, 1917-01-07
The Only Answer

Your only possible answer is that
YOU want them. They mean extra
safety and endurance, extra beauty
and luxury, extra comfort and con-
venience. They mean less upkeep,
less repairs.
Every year we increase them. This
year a new body plant, building all
Mitchell bodies, saves as hundreds
of thousands of dollars.
We are spending that in extra-grade
leather-in cushion springs which
cost SO per cent more. In count
less dainty touches, in heat-hxed
finish; which gives a deep endur-
ing lustre that should keep new
for years.
New-York tribune. [volume] (New York [N.Y.]) 1866-1924, 1917-01-07
Our One Distinction

Mitchell has earned its high place
in Motordom by giving more than
others gave.
John W. Bate is responsible. He
has worked years in the Mitchell
plant to cut our factory cost in two.
Our entire present factory was built
and equipped by him. 1t was built
TO accomplish the utmost efficiency,
as applied to this single type.
The Mitchell is built here for very
much less than anyone else could
build it. 1t is built at the rate OF
$4,000 cars annually. What we save
is clearly shown in these extravalues.
Do you want these extrasl Or would
YOU want them lost in factory wastef
New-York tribune. [volume] (New York [N.Y.]) 1866-1924, 1917-01-07

You will find margins of safety
twice larger than usual.
You will find beauties and luxuries
which have never appeared in cars
at the Mitchell prices.
These extras are paid for by factory
savings. Come and see if you want
4 car without them.

War on U-Boats
Proving Effective.

the high seas and in the Mediterranean
are proving more successful and the
number of sinkings of merchant yes
sells has been greatly reduced In the
past three weeks. according to oficiai
advices from London. The activities OF
the American and British fleets have
lead to increased destruction Of u
boats. though the methods pursued by
the allied sQuadrons have not been re-
vealed and possibly will not be until
the war has ended. Not only have
American merchant ships. the Mongo-
liza and Silvershell, sunk enemy subma-
rines. but French and British mer-
chantmen report similar successes on
two occasions. Greatest confidence Is
expressed in London as well as in other
quarters that eventually the submarine
menace will be met. though undoubt-
eddy constant vigilance necessarily will
be pursued until the end
The character of American military
and naval aid to be rendered during the
struggle is evidenced by the announce
ment that feet OF American warships
has arrived in a French port Grain
and supplies for the American expedf-
tionary force have been landed and 1t
is expected that an American army of
fully $4,000 soon will be fighting with
