Come and see in this new Mitchell Six
the coming idea in fine cars.
An army of specialists has spent two years
in perfecting this ideal Six. All during war
time, while the Mitchell built trucks, they
developed this car part by part.
Not merely to create new attractions. This
new car is based on new standards. 1t is
Mitchell's answer to the call for better-built.
cars stronger. more enduring than Light
Skies of the past.
There are more than 100 important i'm
provements. There is 500 more strength,
1870 more endurance, 1870 more economy,
20 more comfort
Those tremendous advances show how far
the old-type Light Six fell below today's
requirements.

Who Was at Fault ?

The first Skies built years ago were too
heavy. The call went out for lighter Skies,
lower operating cost.
Many makers met that call. A rivalry de-
veloped. Every maker tried to under-weigh
all others. And they went too far.
Later came fierce price rivalry. Cars
were skimred and shortened. Countless
economies were practiced.
The years. have shown that such things
will not do. Extreme lightness involves
weakness. Economies lessen endurance.
Nowadays, when men buy cars to keep. such
cars will not meet requirements.
The fault lay with everyone - buyers, en-
gineers and makers. 1t lay in the call for
extreme lghtness and for lower prices And
it lay in Understanding wear and shock
and strain.

years ago Mitchell decided to lead in this
Six revolution. This new model shows the
result.
1t has taken two full years. 1t has re-
quired the best effort of scores of engineers,
specialists and experts. 1t has cost $250,0o0
for new machinery and equipment. Its max
ing requires 135 inspectors, to analyze the
steels, watch every detail and make the
countless tests.
But the result is by far the greatest car
ever shown in this type and class.
Some Startling Facts
There is not room here to describe the car.
You must come and inspect it. But note
these facts.
Over 100 parts have been bettered. The
average added strength is SO per cent. The
added endurance by actual tests lis rs
per cent.
Despite added weight the fuel and oil cost
is cut rs per cent. A great deal of extra cost
goes into the body, into the finish, the up
holstery, the top.
Yet, with all these improvements. the
price is below any comparable Six. That is
due to the factory efficiency, for which the
Mitchell plant is famous. The entire car
motor, chassis and body-is built in that
plant, under scientific cost-reducing methods
Come now and see the, hundred ways in
which this new-day car excels.
