TTERIES “A. battery te a nervous thing that knows os repose,” says Rod. ney Prentice of the Sunset Blectric Co, U. 8, L. dintributors. Lay it away quietly, as you may think, and it carries on a constant cher action, always changing its state, always sweating off itm harge, That is the reason wh: mincalled “idle” battery needs p. tle charging and attention, Dry harge storage means prevention of eterioration of any kind while the battery is laid up, and every mo. torist who rests bis car for the winter should think twice before he leaves his battery to run down during the colder months, The best reason for “dry-charge” stor- age in the certainty of having a real live battery when you need it in the epring “If you run your car the yoer round, it will save you a lot of hard dollara to watch the battery rely, have {t tested regularty and keep it up to the highest point effictency yur fre> testing service t« open to everyone and we wish that more notoriate woud aval! themselves ot it thin cold weather.

Imagine what the big thoro-. fares and avenues in the metro- politan cities would look like If sll automobiles and motor trucks were removed and the same num Yer of horsedrawn vehicles re placed them.
