Despite tho wintry weather experienced, the various exhibits have attracted considerable attention, and shopkeepers and manufacturers agree that the educational influence- of tho. week has been of great value. Residents and also visitors to the city have expressed their admiration for tho articles made within the dominion, the quality of the goods being of a very high standard. (Published by arrangement.) J. M. MITCHELL, f Situation has no effect on the quality of goods, but frequently people of the city" forget manufactures unless they actually see them. Such an omission should not be made in the case of Mr J. M. Mitchell, whoso shop and factory is situated in Colombo Street near Moorhouse Avenue. John Mitchell's furniture is in every sense of'the word a New Zealand production. Mr Mitchell has had 35 years' experience in I xhe trade, and for the past 20 years has been carrying on business in Christchurch. This long experience is shown in the quality of the products of his firm, and the effect is evidenced hi the extent of his business. At Mr Mitchell's premises in Colombo Street may bo seen samples of the highest quality furniture in kauri, and in oak, as well as other valuable timbers. All the furniture shows quality in its finish and design, and is worthy of close inspection.
