Much of their success will depend upon our kecping before us the fact that whatever concerns them also .ef- fects each of us here.. It is im- portant that ships be ‘built, and their building, requires earnest skilled labor.

The. idea prevails that a storage bat- \ tery is & mystery, which it behooves | the average man to let severely alone. | This is;gradually being overcome, | however, by vigorous efforts of the! Willard’ company to educate the car owner up to the point where he will! give the same sort of care to his bat-| tery that he does to his motor, his| tires and other important paris of his} car, i ‘The reluctance of motorists to con-} cern themselves with the condition of | their batteries is especially danger: | ous through the winter months when | a battery that isn't kept filled with) distilled water and fully charged is likely to freeze, cracking the rubber | jars and causing considerable trouble | j and expense. { The opening of numerous service trained | men inspect batteries and explain ! their care, free of charge, has done} a great deal to place the storage bat: | tery before the car owner as some-| ; thing which he can easily understand | and care for and not as a forbidding | mystery.
