It really costs no more to own a distinguished Packard Standard Eight than a lower priced vehicle of like size. Operating costs are no greater. And the higher first cost is completely offset by the longer period the Packard owner gladly keeps his car. THERE in a nutshell is the reason to many of your friends and acquaintances are driving Packard cars. Why not enjoy the distinction and satisfaction of Packard ownership yourself? Let us give you a Packard demonstration the new kind of demonstration with facts and figures set down on paper in black and white! Wc can quickly show you that gasoline, oil and tire costs are just as great for your present car as for a Packard if your car com pares with a Packard in size. This is true even if your present car cost but half the Packard price. And we can show you that license, Insurance, garaging and repairs for your present car cost just as much in the aggregate as they would cost for a Packard. This leaves only depreciation to consider. And depreciation on half-price cars traded in every two years or so is just as great as depreciation on a Packard kept twice that long. That is why we say, "You are paying for a Packard." And that is why we invite you to own one. We know you will want to keep your long-lived, always modern Packard far longer in .months and miles than you ever kept a lesser car. And that its beauty and luxury will be a source of satisfaction long after the purchase price has been forgotten. The price of the most popular model of the Packard Standard Eight the five-passenger Sedan is but $2485 at the factory. Ten other body styles are available on the IIVA and 134'2-inch wheel bases at from $2425 to $2885. Why not let us appraise your present car and tell you about the convenient Packard monthly payment plan X J. J. OSENBRUGGE 128 8o. Riverside Phono 110!)

"We omphatlcully and sincerely assert tho oft-repeated truth taught in our organic law, that the Grange, national, state or subordin ate Is not a political or party or ganization.

"We must always hear in mind that no one, by becoming a Patron of Husbandry, gives up that in alienable right and duty which be longs to every American citizen, to take a proper interest In the politics of his country. "On tho contrary, It is. right for every mouther to do all in his. power legitimately to liu'liicnce for good the action of any political party (o which ho belongs.
