Getting Your Car
Ready For Service
SUGGESTIONS ON HOW TO MAKE
SURE OF GOOD LIGHTS AND
EASY STARTING.

i. with many motorists it is very
natural that they give very little at
tention to their cars when they are
laid up for the winter. AS q result,
when .overhauling them for use in
the spring, they find that some OF the
most important parts have suffered
from neglect
One. OF the most important factors
In modern motor car construction is
the storage battery. Upon its condi-
ton depends, to a great extent. the
performance of the electric starting
and lighting system. It is very pro-
voking and sometimes expensive to
find that your storage battery is dead,
when you inspect it after winter stor-
age.
Since it is such an important part,
it is OF interest to every motorist to
know a few things about battery care
and inspection to determine its con-
dition. The Willard Storage Battery
company is one of the concerns best

the specific gravity OF the el%ectrolyte.
This test should be made before add

prove to be lower than 1875 it Is
necessary to recharge, 1t. This may
be done in cases where the battery
is not too weak, by running the motor

the battery to it's normal condition.
In connection with this, it is very i'm

recommend that the motorist visit

not attempt to go beyond filling the

it with a hydro-meter syringe to de-
