LIBERTY IS FROM
 A STRANGE SOURCE
tMunsey's Magazlne)


 The elements of personal freedom lacking in the ancient ideal of liberty were to come from two sources, one of which must seem a strange source for any form of liberty today. One source was Christianity, the other was the Germanic hordes that were at once to destroy and to fertilize civilations that were dying largely from the exhaus- ton of the common people.
 Strange it was, surely, that that gentle teaching Christianity should lind an ally in the savage northern warriors who had not derived it from that divine source which they long fiercely denied, but had come to it naturally as part of the genius of their race The freedom of the in dividual man was a tenet that seems to have been in the blood of the an l cient German. He acknowledged no authority but his own and that Of the laws he shared In making. The kincs he consented to obey in times of war were his election, Though there were nobles in the tribe the scions of the older families, their distinction was chiefly social and they wielded no more real power than the average free man. Indeed, those early German tribes afforded an almost perfect ex- dIhple u tndl government or the peo- pie, by the people, for the people" which survives in it's primitive form today only in the Swiss cantons.
 So the men that believed in Christ and the men that believed in Odin met | in those early days on that common l basis of God created manhood which the French revolution was to express in those three words of immortal l challenge-liberte, egalite fraternite. From the Goth and the Hun, passing strange as it sounds, came, in the mys- terieus processes of time-time, which 1 out of such brutish material was to create England and France and Amer iea-those early seedlings of popular government which were to blossom in tho Magma Charta and come to giant fruitage in the Declaration of 1nde- peRdence

 and who owns several other ranches in tho valley, has sont a specimen of the soil from his ranch at the end of the Brill carline to the government for an alysis. He plans to experiment with fertilization and force the first picking of his next years crop by at least month earlier.

CLEANING BRASSWORK OF CAR
 Some of the brasswork of the car because of it's position and the work it has to perform. is apt to get into a rough state that makes it difficult to keep clean. This applies to the brass strip edging the running boards and the foot plates on the door sills. It is difficult to clean these with liquid brass polish. which has the character istics of staining the surrounding ter ritory. including the rubber foot board covering. It is better to drop using the liquid here and to polish the brass with the finest grade of emery cloth. A piece of this cloth that has been used somewhat elsewhere and so has lost some of it's cut is best for this work.
