A LIFETIME CAB. Mr. John W. Bate, the great efficiency engineer, has, in designing the "Mitchell " aimed at a lifetimo oar. Two Bate-built Mitchells, still in good condition, have run over 200,000 miles apiece. Seven, of them aro known to have averaged over 175,000 miles apiece, or moro ihan 80 years' ordinary service. So far a3 we kuow, no other car ever built has approached those endurance record*. Thoso records, however, vsro made by Mitch'j'J, built i.ifidor forsjer standards of 50 over-stiraaath. That was tho Gtar.durd. Mr. Bam adopted years ago. It ißiido him, at that time, seem an extremist. Other engineers argued that in ordinary driving no such margin of safety was necessary. But that overstrength is what made Mitchell Cars render their marvellous service. But three years ago Mr. Bate spent a year in Europe. There ho found a etandard, amongst foremost engineers, of 100 per cent, over-strength, That standard, waa based on European roads. It would not mean '.hat much margin here, But it suggested to Mr. Bate the same double strength, based on less favourable conditions. Since then Mr, Bate has constantly worked.to double oar margins of safety. He. has worn out fifty cars in learning the needed strength. He has invented tests to prove that every vital part has twice the strength required. This year, for the first time, wo announce that Mitchells in all important parts havo 100 por cent, over-strength. ■That is, they are built to twice the strength standards of the Mitchells which made those records. Over HO parts are built of toughened steel. All parts which get a major strain are built ot Chrome-Vanadium, and built over-size. Axles, gears, steering' and driving parts are constantly tosted for this double strength. The factory .-.rialyße all Steele to ensure it, and parts are subjected to tremendous factory tests. .
