No Lights On Bidge.
The residents of East Newport
have been complaining for the
past two weeks of having no
lights on or near the lake bridge
or the Rock Island crossing.
Complaints were made to the
electric light company’s people
here, who stated they had not
been able to keep lights in that
neighborhood lately, having had
seven broken in the past ten
days and would not put in any
more until they had city protec
tion, in which they are justifi
able.
These street lights are brok
en, no doubt by small boys, most
probably by the colored boys of
that vicinity, which should be
j looked after and stopped.

the guest of her uncle’s family,
Mr. George R. Hays, was called

Get the Personal Touch
The policy of this
Company is not to sell cars by hook or
crook” or rush advertising, but to ask you
to take the wheel of a Mitchell yourself, give
the car a thorough trial over all kinds ot
roads and discuss the subject of purchase afterwards.
The theory is that a
personal trial eliminates all uncertainty,
does away with all possible risk by proving
the car, and demonstrates in advance that
when you pay the price you are making an invest
ment and not indulging in a speculation or gamble.
If this car does not
come up to our claims or your expectations,
it is a good deal better to know it before
you buy than to seek redress afterwards.
If we start off right and you are entirely satisfied, you
become a standing and mighty valuable advertise
ment for the Mitchell car.
The 1914 Mitchell is
unquestionably the finest, most lasting, most
efficient and most powerful popular-priced
car on the market. We know it and we
want the chance to prove it to you. So take the wheel
yourself and get thepersonal touch and the “feel of the
car.” Our dealers stand ready to aid you at any time you call.

the List Prices:
