The average was 6,119 cars per L | day—and this under curtailed output owing to sickness and severe weather. Yet all the manufacturers say they are be- hind with their orders. At the present rate of manufacture of cars, old Dobbin will soon be a curiosity. E. M.

Perfection in Motor Cars Design Shown in New Mitchell These new MITCHELL SIXES bring to Cottonwood its first accurate ex- ample of the coming style tendancies. They now reveal the ideal toward which creditors of motor car designs have long been working. Striking reforms are seen in every detail. throughout. There is complete harmony Viewed from any angle—from inside or out—the effect is impressive. The long yacht-like sweep of the body is made doubly pleasing by an ex- tended moulding and bevel crown. The graceful slanting lines of radiator, hood windshield, and doors express the gliding senation one experienced when rid- ing in these fashionable modern cars. Inside the body will be found the handwork of master craftsmen. The manner of applying the upholstery, for example, shows the matchless care em- ployed. Again in the comfortable roominess is the art of the master designer employed. Last season’s VICTORY MODEL has definitely proved the advantages of Mitchell’s mechanical improvements, but many additional betterments are now offered in chassis and motor, and these features, with this beautiful body makes the Mitchell Six the motor sensation of the year. ’ We will have these cars in stock in a short time, and if you want a Six Cyl- inder car, with efficiency, power, grace, economy combined with wonderful easy of riding, and a car that you and the family will be very proud to own, wait for the NEW MITCHELL SIX.
