The ceremony was performed by Rev. Burt Timbie. The age batteries for Automobiles must be limited as to size and weight, and in an alrcraft these limitations are still greater. Reliability was a mat- ter of, life and death and in addition to these handicaps, a storage battery for aircraft use must not spill its acid contents when upside down. This was one of the many. war problems which it seemed impossible to solve, but within the time limit set, a Wil- Jard Battery was designed, a jnodel made, tested and accepted which met every requirement. Nothing could be said at the time this feat was accom- plished but among those on the in- side who knew it was regarded as another step towards our _ultimate victory over the Teutons.” “The Willard Factory also batteries for gun firlng, for radio work, for the signal corps, for the Aldas Lamp, a hand signalling de- made vice Invented by the English.

The advan- tage of Threaded Rubber as an in- sulation in storage batteries lay in the fact that a batt could be kept in continuous service for a longer period.
