T HIS new Mitchell sets 2 new A stride. And everyone who knows our latest offering. con- cedes 1t.
 Here is great triumph of Mitchell engineers and designers. Their harmonious effort brings match less car at a moderate price-de- tails of style not found elsewhere, betterment in materials, and above all, sincerity of purpose in con- struction.
 Mitchell introduces to car design logical advancement.
 All tendencies of recent years, as you know, have been toward mo- tive lines. Yet many awkward lines remained.
 Someone had to conceive the final step-to bring the radiator into harmony with other body lines. It alone remained straight up-and- down.
 It has been Mitchells opportunity to introduce this inevitable feature

How to
 judge this new Mitchell

Style is not the sole attrac- ton in this new Mitchell. Nor all the costly details of finish.
 For the chassis construction has it's appeal to the mechan- ically inclined, and its de- probability to those who like to take mechanics for granted.
 While no basic changes have been rade-becapse of the success of the recent Mitch eIls-nevertheies we want to point out the numerous re- finements and improvements that have been incorporated. 1t is your distinct advantage to know this new Mitchell be- fore you make any choice to know it's beauty, its re- sponsive performance, its roominess and comfort, it's sturdy construction and it's moderate price.
 Then make comparisons, if you wish. See if you can find like car at like price. To even approximate all that Mitchell offers will cost you much more, we think.
 Orders should be placed early, so as to insure early delivery.

A New Style Body
 On an Improved Chassis

and the result must be seen to be appreciated fully-for it appeals not only to the eye, but to one's sense of logical proportions of a swift moving object, like an auto mobile.
 Some will say that this is a minor thing-that 1t is not radically diff ferent.
 That is true. In this new Mitchell we do not offer the freakish, nor something to appeal to passing fancy. What is offered Is a basic development, just like the slanting of the windshield, just like the many other items which make to- days cars so different from those of five years ago.
 We want you to see this new car and pass judgment. We want you to observe it's new lines. And to examine it's superb finish. Then we know you'll agree that this new Mitchell offers more for your money.

lied in consideration of the birds nat
ural longevity and strong powers of
fight, which make it possible for a
single individual to be seen repeated
ly over period of many years and
in widely separated places.
''Up to the present time, the only
region where the bald eagle has main
tanned encouraging numbers has been
the coastal region and large river val
| leys of Alaska. Here it did breed
in numbers surprisingly large for a
| bird of it's size. But the Alaskan
bounty law, which provides for the
payment of so cents for each eagle de-
stroyed, although it went into effect
only on April 80, 1917, had already,
by April 10, 1919. resulted in the kill
ing of 5000 eagles. Moreover, the
bounty seekers have undoubtedly not
confined their depredations to Alaskan
territory, but have extended them in
to the British provinces adjoining
Alaska, in order to swell their gains.
It is possible that by this time more
than one-half- perhaps more than
three-quarters- the entire species
have already been sacrificed.
IF action is to be taken, it must
be at once. For protection, to be eff
fective, must come, not merely before
| the species has been annihilated, but
suffer the weakening effect of inbreed-
| ing or the failure of the scattered
individuals to find each other and
raise young.
I'm view of all that is known by
naturalists of the habits Of this in
| offensive bird, the hostility to the
eagle in Alaska is based rather on
INSTRUMENTATION and ignorant prejudice
than on any real damage done by the
birds. The tales of its ferocity and
| destructiveness to game or domestic
| animals are for the greater part pure
| fiction, for the rest, usually gross ex-
aggerations. Moreover, it is the dem
onstrated policy Of the United States
department of agriculture-wise from
eXperience-to discountenance bounty
| laws for the determination Of birds
of prey. Much money is spent each
| year in the control of harmful rodents
whose increase is favored by the de-
strucfion of such birds. For our
American eagle. there is the added
plea of its patriotic significance And
finally, as 1t is migratory bird, the
right to destroy it cannot be claimed
by any state or territory. Like most
of our other migratory birds, it should
be protected by the federal govern
particularly as the effect of the
protective laws adopted for its pres
ervation in most of our states is be
ing annulled by the action of single
territory.
