Producing Electrical Current.
II has been stated that there il no
electricity present in a forage battery.
That is a fact, for electricity rs pro-
duced only when a circuit is established
between the battery terminals. During
the period Of contact, or the establish
ing Of a circuit, a chemical action is
created within the storage battery
which produces an electrical current.
The closing OF the circuit permits Ger
tain substances 10 rush together and
unite, so to speak, and It is while this
so-called union Of substances is taking
place that current flows through the
circuit. IF the circuit Is left closed
these substances viii unite to a point
where no further chemical action is
possible: 10 is then that the battery Is
fully discharged, and II left for any
definite period in this way the battery
Will become worthless.
In order 20 prevent this action taking
place, the generator on your car. u IN
good condition and operated at proper
speed and 20 proper intervals, will run
an electrical current through the bat
terry. This breaks up the solid or united
masses and returns the particles 10
their original places or TO their pre-
yious form, ready for another call.
Barring short circuits and accidents,
neither one infrequent by any means,
there is little you can do for q storage
battery except TO give II drink now
and then; however this exception IS

Don't for Rccharging.

When the battery Is fully charged
the specific gravity should be between
1913 and 300. Test for this reading
first. then IN with water if the plates
are not covered. Never make the read
ing after you have added your dis
TILED water 10 the battery; never use
other than distilled water; never add
the distilled water with the aid OF "a
metal container or metal funnel, but
use clean glass or china pitcher with
a glass funnel, or the hydrometer itself
can be used as a syringe.
When your starter desn't start, and
your lights grow dim and your engine
loses its pep, do not blame the entire
electrical system. Your starter may
be quite all right and only need sufh
cient electrical energy 20 make II work
properly. Your generator would work
satisfactory too. but perhaps you do
not DO enough driving above its charg-
ing speed. and in consequence your
battery is not properly charged II
your ignition also depends on the
storage battery. IL is hardly reasonable
20 expect goood ignition from tagged
out battery.

disposal otftwo cases, the respondents
in which IRE Allen D. Rackliff, a Span
ish War .yeteran from the National
Home at Togus. and Mrs. Lillian Davis
who also lives in that vicinity and is
well known in local police circles, and
the charge in each case was intoxica-
ton. -
Rackliff, who is about 76 years old,
admitted that he was intoxicated, and
submitted to the inevitable, which was
! in his case a suspended sentence of
80 days in Jail, but the woman allowed
that the charge against her was uns
warranted, as she was not drunk.
According to her statement she and
Rackliff had been to Gardiner where
they had made several calls before
coming to Augusta Wednesday after
noon, and their condition at the time
of their arrival indicated that they
had been Hospitality received while in
the down river city. Testimony
introduced by the prosecution showed
that the woman was intoxicated at
the time of her arrest, and at the
close of the hearing the court found
her guilty and imposed a sentence Of
80 days in Jail.
