fexec Game Failure
Apparently Harvard, Yalo and Prlnce-
a have found tho thrce-Bamo uaseDuu
pries tried last year a failure, for Prlnce
kn In announcing Its 191G schedule has
fit' two dates with each, though arrang
es for a third in case of a tie. The rea-
fn for the Lhanso Is that last year the
third game was unnecessary In but one
pie. Harvard won Its first two games
lorn Princeton and Ynle, so that the
bird game wni nothing more than an
plbltlon contest The flnal game of
M season between Harvard nnd Yale
i a naaco, for the Crimson team, hav
the chamnlonshln cinched, nlaved
Usly and disgusted mnny of the Har
n) folloners who had exnected to see
Mir tram DUt un n rrnl flc-lit.
Itopplng off the third game iuiIohi It
i necessary will be most acceptable to

around on tho Inlured member for four

expected the wound to heal in a week,
but now ho learns that the leg was

that It must br broken ngnln
Physicians hno Informed Kelly that It

This wilt remove not only from raolflo

Resistless power that floats the car up the steep hills, effort
less, so easily, that it is a constant and a Very keen joy to COME to a
steep hill. More speed than you can ever use and EVERY moment a
sweetness of running: that is all delight, a silent, effortless sweep for
ward that feels like three hundred horse power under the hood, but
gentle horse power, controlled by a touch.
A beauty of line that makes a lot of $3000 cars look like lum-
i
bering 'busses. A grace, a trimness, of the sort that the eye instantly
recognizes, but which many, many words cannot adequately describe.
i
A record of having been selected by the GREATEST
ENGINEERS in the country, by the greatest MEN of AFFAIRS in the
country. BOUGHT by them for their PERSONAL use when they
COULD buy, and in the past HAVE bought, cars costing $4000 and
over, not merely once, but EVERY YEAR.
An indescribable, gloriously restful ease of riding, which 1 tell
you, over my signature, I have never before found in ANY car at
ANY price' which our 965 owners say THEY never before realized a
car COULD give.
And to cap all these, the knowledge that you are SAFE in
buying, because we GUARANTEE the Service.
Can Money Buy MORE Than This?
ft
If
We could write p.iKe.s nhout tho engine, hut XVI1V7
Wo GUARANTKi: tho service. Do you CAItK whether
tho pistons nro mudu of a special chrome tanadlum
steel forced from Swedish lion? Would you KNOW
what It mennt? Not unless ou were an expett
metallurgist. Wo KNOW, wo Investigated, our experts
ln estimated, before wo obligated ourselves for
Jl.000,000 worth of New Mitchells.
WE assumed tho burden WI2 searched for and
found tho best car that money can buy and NOW we
feel that nil wo have to do Is to tell you what the
Now Mitchell DOKS. what 9GB of OUIt owners SAX
It! does In TIIKUt hands, show jou their letters,
SHOW ou tho big. exquisite, hiautltiil car, lot you
FKKI how It rides, lot ou KKnh how it performs and
then say ou nro safe SATR In ecry choice of metal,
eery line of design, every Item of construction,
because "Wo GUARAXTRE tho service."
We could write pages explaining why the won
derful cnntilover spring system makes the New
Mitchell ride TAR easier than ANY other car. Isn't
It better and simpler to tell ou to trust to our
Judgment enough to visit our exhibit at the show,
to TUX" the easy riding qualities of tho car and FEE'.,
them for jourself?
We could write pages nhout the great Mitchell
factor) an Institution eighty jenrs old where some
of tho present employees have worked tlfty years,
more for forty years, many for thirty years and few
less than ten j ears a unique organization, which has
worked together until It has GHOWN together,' al
striving, Jiving to achieve perfection to build th
best car which CAN bo built. We oould ehow yon
why ONLY such an organization COUIVD build euch
a cor. but "We aiAUANTRE the Service," Isn't that
enough?
All the good things wo could tell you about the
mechanical superiority of tho Now Mitchell are, nftcr
all, tho leasons why wo selected It above all other
cars to pin our faith to, to put our money in nnd on,
to ilsk our business future on, and our reputation.
And I say to ion that price cntlroly aside, I get a Joy
of uso 'Hit of m own, personal New MltchoU that
NO other cur has ever given me that of my own
personal knowledge our nloe hundred owners ieel
tho SAME WAY about tholr rnrs, thnt I believe the
New MltchoU to bo the LOQICAIj car for you to own,
the UEST car for you to own, and that .you should,
SEE It for ourself
And UEMEMUER, We GUARANTEE the Service.
