Obviously there has been an element of self - protection in Britain's cross-channel strategy. liowever. students of history might argue. that there is noth- ing unnatural or unduly self- seeking about the British flair for devising coalitions against any rampant European power.

It was. instead, a feeling that a second generation of (‘oiiserv- atives who had demonstrated

This amazing instrument will start a VolksviIagen at 30 below zero.
It's not much of a trick, really. Just
common sense.
We discovered, a long time ago, that water and winter don't mix.
A conventional car has about four gal- Ions of water to beat before the engine
runs properly.
Instead of water, a Volkswagen is cooled with air. No matter how cold the weather, the air is warmed almost in- stantly. Heat that is usually absorbed by
water warms the carburetor and oil for faster starts. (The automatic choke prevents stalling.) There are other reasons why the Volkswagen is a winter wonder. The bottom of the VW is flat so it doesn't get involved with deep snow. (You can shovel the walk, but the drive- way is optional.) There’s also better traction because the engine is in the rear with its weight over the drive wheels.
And we have one
more amazing gim-
mick. It keeps our car from rusting. It's
