Residents of the Huntington road
district are wondering when the joint
committee appointed to build the
school is going to meet and award
contracts for the work. 1t was prom
fsed that work should begin on March
1 and that the building would be
ready for use at the opening of the
fall term. 1t is only six weeks till
the first of March and if work Is to
commence then somebody must get

xnors are In the air. One has existed
for long time and 1t has filled the
residents of the section with appre-
hension. 1t was reported at the time

these little inside fittings may be had

One of the parts Of the car that re-
quire careful attention during the win
ter months, when many owners store
their machines to await the coming of
more pleasant weather, is the storage
battery. There is hardly anything that
hurts g. battery more than fd1eness,
whether it be charged or unchanged,
and simply to give it a full charge and
lay it away for the winter may pro-
duce rather disastrous results. To
maintain a battery in proper condition,
it is necessary to give it a charge at
certain intervals. When the battery is
used in connection with one of the
misunderstanding systems, possessing a
dynamo for charging, this is an easy
matter, and all that is necessary is to
run the motor until the battery is
charged. This should be done at least
once every two weeks, the motor be-
ing run at a speed corresponding to a
car speed of 20 miles an hour. In or
der to determine when the battery is
sufficiently charged, a hydrometer
should be used and when this regis
ters 12O degrees, charging should be
stopped. In the absence of the by
drometer, the motor should be run for
two or three hours time in order to be

BILE or very inconvenient to operate the
engine When this is the case it is
recommended, if electric current is
termed a rectifer or small charging
machine. Rectifiers of this description
are produced by several manufa cturers
and may be procured through supply
dealers at a reasonable cost They are
small devices to be attached to the
wall and plugged into ordinary
electric-1ight socket A charge over
night or for about u hours every two
weeks with this apparatL5 will be suf-
fcient to keep the battery in healthy
condition.

most me1odius music of this time. Few
composers since the passing of the late
Sir Arthur Sullivan have managed to
associate hurnor with music, so that
