In 1917 he joined the Supermarine Aviation Works at Southampton. Advancing quickly within the company, Mitchell was appointed Chief Designer in 1919. He was made Chief Engineer in 1920 and Technical Director in 1927.

The name is cultural in origin, literally paradise, fertile and beautiful land.
History
The settlement was first mentioned in a Latin document of Diocese of Wrocław called Liber fundationis episcopatus Vratislaviensis from around 1305 as item Frienstad in Ray. It meant that the village served as the foundation ground for Fryštát (Frienstad), and as such it had to be much older.
The medieval name Ray, denoted a paradise, it was later pronounced by locals (see Silesian dialects) as Roj, which later transformed into Rój, literally a swarm of bees.
After World War I in the Upper Silesia plebiscite 335 out of 375 voters in Rój voted in favour of joining Poland, against 40 opting for staying in Germany.
The Rōjū(老中), usually translated as Elder, was one of the highest-ranking government posts under the Tokugawa shogunate of Edo periodJapan. The term refers either to individual Elders, or to the Council of Elders as a whole; under the first two shoguns, there were only two Rōjū. The number was then increased to five, and later reduced to four. The Rōjū were appointed from the ranks of the fudai daimyo with domains of between 25,000 and 50,000 koku.
Duties
The Rōjū had a number of responsibilities, most clearly delineated in the 1634 ordinance that reorganized the government and created a number of new posts:
Relations with the Throne, the Court, and the Prince-Abbots.
Supervision of those daimyo who controlled lands worth at least 10,000 koku.
Managing the forms taken by official documents in official communications.
Supervision of the internal affairs of the Shogun's domains.
Coinage, public works, and enfiefment.
Governmental relations and supervision of monasteries and shrines.
Compilation of maps, charts, and other government records.
Some of the characters' names are also changed. Lord and Lady Montague and Lord and Lady Capulet are given first names (as opposed to the Shakespeare original where their first names are never mentioned), Friar Lawrence becomes Father Lawrence, and Prince Escalus is renamed Captain Prince. There is also no Friar John, who was in the original play. Also, some characters were switched from one family to the other—in the original, Gregory and Sampson are Capulets, but in the film, they are Montagues. (Abram, as Abra, and Petruchio, conversely, are shifted from the Montague to the Capulet family.) In addition, a few plot details are shifted, most notably near the ending.
