My Experience With a Willard Storage i!attery “After | had used my Reo truck for two or three weeks, | met Mr. Konopaska, preprietor of the Willimantic Willard Szrvice ' Station, on Main Street. “He asked me about the ¢ar and told me that there was a Willard Battery in it, and if | would drive the ar to the station, he would register the battery and test it fo see i it was charging properiy. and went to the statien several times but soon tired of it and gave it up, as | thought | could put water in the battery just as well as he could. “1 tried this, and after some weeks the battery began to grow weak. | began to favor my battery, | cranked the car, and did everything | could Water would not stay in one of the jars. down to the station and told Mr. Kenopaska that my battery was ‘on but it was no use. the bum. “Mr. Konopaska then told me that as | had been taking care of my battery | would be forced to take the consequences. | told him to fix the jar and he did. “When | got my battery, Mr. Konepaska again told me to come around every week but | paid no attention to his advice, and it wasn’t long before another jar was acting as the first one had. “I again went to the Service Station and Mr. Konopaska said, “Mr. Gardiner, if you don’t watch out you will have to pay. come down here and tell me what you wart done, | can helz you. that the jars are all right, but | cannat put you right if you won’t let me. If you will promise to come down to the Service Station whenever | advise vau, Pl prove to you that your battery is all right, and it won't cost you one cent. “l, agreed to do this and after a few days he proved to me that my battery was over-charging. He regulated the generator, and since that time | have had no trouble with the battery. “l now visit the Service Station regularly and will continue to do so as long as | own a battery, for | have learned that putting distilled water into a battery is not all an owner 'has to do to keep it in order, even though 1 found it to my benefit to listen to the advise of Mr. Konopaska, and feel that all battery owners would be bene- he owns a tester, just as | did. fited as | was if they also would take his advice. “ROBEKT B.
