MKN OK 1*1'lll.ll' MOTIVES I Tii" men who ar*; doing the most for the state and nation are necesa r!! y the men who are being honored most. On the contrary, it may i be found, likely, that some of the men who are contributing, most to the safety and security of the state and nation are humble private citij" n- who go about their business |ly without applause of their few low-men. These men serve in deed and in truth, but they do not use p their friends for glory, position or - honor. Kv. r> citizen can serve; he can contribute to good citizenship and be the mean- of a ivancing high - ideals and lofty sentiment if that is his desire. ; The tii ii win nrp eivlnc tliie ?tnf> and nation it- highest and loftiest patriotism are the honest, diligent people who bear their part in supporting the government; who are conservative, yet progressive. These are men who are willing to scrattce, if necessary to defend his county, state and nation, but they do not want to follow those who would sacrifice his county for their own advancement. These men may not make much noise, but they make this old world better every day they live. There is a va?t difference b tween thos? who serve their county and ..... wh . serve others and those wh - rve self. TIIK TOVt.l i: T ni"s; T i: - r ins?rnment hno-vn to mortals. the humav gu .

KEROStiJE BAD FOR TIRES Grer.tc- Satisfaction Will Se Had if Nothing b t Water is Used When Washing Them. Washing tires an I washing cars are two different r'opnsitions. Water alone should he used to wash tires and as ? of it as p.. es-ary. After every run t lie tires should be wiped with a damp sponge or well wrung cloth. A common method when washing a car is t<> mix i."n,-. no with the water. This may be advisable when washi: g the woodwork to remove mud and dust from the varnish, hut no kern sen? should h.- permitted to roach the tires, because kerosene eats rubber. I This fact can be readily proved by immersing a small piece of rubber in kerosene and allowing it to soak. The \ rubber will soon sw'ell and lose its elasticity. The reason tor this Is apparent. Kerosene is rich in fatty properties, which rentnins after the evaporation of the gases. When washing tires It is best to us? a damp sponge and clean water, care being taken that the sponge is not soaked and dripping. After washing the tires thny should be wiped dry with a clo'h or a handful of wast?. Worn Bearings. When ball bearings become worn It is not always necessary to hav? complot? new bearings installed. The old ones can be repaired and b? almost, as good as new. This can be done by truing up the hall races and using larger balls of proper size. For a Quiet Car. The holes drilled in mufflers someI times are rough and ragged, with the result that the escaping gases set up a ! whistling noise anything but agrew> able. Smoothing off the rough edges will usually eliminate the unwelcome sound. ; MAY 30. 1 h J ? ?? v t *, n.?
