dry cell when new should be less than
4 ohm. but may increase to several
times this value within six months 70
one year. even though the cell may
not be IN use
The electrical pressure produced
within a dry cell called its electromos
tive force. should be- i'm the neighbor
hood of IS TO 1.6 volts when the cell
is quite new The pressure between
the terminals OF the cell, called its
terminal voltage, is equal to the cleo
tro.motiye force OF the cell when there
is no current through the cell The
terminal voltage drops when a cur.
rent is supplied by the cell, due to
the internal resistance and polariza-
tion OF the cell In the majority OF
dry cells the effect OF the counter
electro-motive force due to polariZa-
tioH is greater than the effect Of in.
ternal resistance, and the average ter
minal voltage Of the cell during its
useful life is not much greater than
] volt.
Testing Cells
About ninety per cent Of the per.
sons using dry cells test them by
measuring the current they will sup
ply when the terminals of the cell
are connected directly to the terminals
OF low resistance ammeter. This
sort OF a test does not take into ac-
count such factors as the temperature,
the kind OF service for which the cell
Is TO be used. etc. and as a result is
not altogether reliable. The same
cell will produce a different current
through ammeters or different resist
ance, due TO there being different
resistance in circuit in the two cases,
the higher current being produced
with the low resistance ammeter. and
the smaller current with the high re-
sistance ammeter. The maximum
current output can be obtained when
the resistance outside of the cell is
equal to the resistance inside of the
cell.
A good dry cell should produce
current, when its terminals are con-
nected directly TO an ammeter, of from
16 to % amperes, with an external re-
sistance not exceeding OF ohm. A
cell producing a current much less
than Is amperes is more than likely
composed of cheap materials or it has
been made for long time II the cell
produces a current much in excess of
25 amperes it is likely to polarize
rapidly, and as result its terminal

Dramatic Film Serial With Earle Williams as
 Star

The Scarlet Runner" a greater Vta- graph greater production. will be pre- sented at the Princess theatre beginning today and 12 episodes will be shown one every Sunday.
 Each one of the episodes of this great series will be separate and apart and will be a story in itself
 Earle Williams, that celebrated nov ing picture star. will take the lead in all of the episodes and he will be sup ported by a different leading lady in ! each picture
 There will be P beautiful heroines, 12 splendid love stories and F thrilling ad- ventures in "The Scarlet Runner" and the series is expected to prove one of the most popular pictures ever shown in Bir- mingham.
 The management of the Princess se- cured this great production at great outlay of money, but in presenting it to ! local theatregoers it believes it is of fering one of the best pictures recently released.
 Earle Williams, the leading principal in this great series, is one of filmdoms best known stars, and his ability as an actor IS Sucn that there is every assurance that the Scarlet Runner will be one of the most popular pictures ever seen in Bir- mingham.
 MT. Williams will be supported in the first series, which begins today, by Mar garet Blake, an actress who is well and most favorably known to movie fans of Birmingham. This young lady has fea- tured in some of the best pictures pre- sented.
 The title of the first series is "The Car and His Majesty"
 In theNfol1owing episodes Mr Williams will be supported by great stars of the movie world, including such well known actresses as Edith Storey, Betty Howe. Billy Billings, Jean Stuart, Gypsy OBrien, Louisetta Valentine
 Citizens have noticed the red car on the streets of Birmingham and have wondered it's significance. It was merely way of leading the people up to the information that a great picture would be at the Princess today and every Sun day for 12 consecutive Sundays
 Today at the Princess, in addition to the Scarlet Runner" there will be pre- sented Mary Pickford and an all-star cast in "The Pueblo Legend.'

 How she falls in love-a cloud Is cast over her life, only to be dispelled by the man her heart desires, is unfolded and explained in an intense and interest ing manner
 Miss Sweet is surrounded by cast of famous players, headed by Thomas Meig- ham, who recently scored such a success as leading man for Marie Doro in Com mon Ground" and who is one of the most popular of the Lasky players: America's leading character actor, Theo- dore Roberts, and other members of the all-star Lasky organization, including Richard Sterling and Chandler House, are also included in the cast.
