For Prest-O-Lite Batteries.
Announcement is made by Electric
Service Station of their appointment
as a special Service Station for the
Prest-O-Lite storage battery in Will
mar.
Facilities have been provided for
giving expert battery service on the
'Prest-O-Lite battery and for handling
charging and repair work on all makes
of batteries.
Much Importance is attached to the
Service Station offer to all automobile
owners. In speaking Of the liberal
service policy that this company had
adopted, Mr.. Harry Erickson says:
IF every automobile owner would
realize that he would get 100 per cent
better service out of his storage bat
terry by having it inspected occasion
ally by an expert battery man, there
would be fewer complaints about bat
teries going wrong.
"A storage battery needs certain lit
| tie attentions at regular intervals
not merely once month but every
two weeks. 1t may need distilled wat
| er added to one or two Of the cells. A
! storage battery can't work without dis
titled water. Or it may need some
thing else of simple but neverthe-
less very important nature.
! 1--WE are Offering automobile owners
expert inspection and service once ev-
cry two weeks, or Oftener If desired,
because we feel that by carefully
watching the condition Of a battery at
regular intervals we will be able to de-
tect the presence of conditions which
might cause trouble, and correct them
before the real troubles have a chance
to start.
''The action of a storage battery is
pretty much of a mystery to the aver
age car owner. The serious things
that may happen to battery are not
apparent to the eye. They are not US
ually detected until the damage has
been done and the battery goes on 9
strike. The effect of this is to leave
the car owner in a state of uncertain
| ty. He thinks he is giving it good
care but sometimes the battery sud
denly and quite unexpectedly refuses
TO work.
AZ OuA oO1 t4C0 0IdLlOu We EldUI
| inspect storage batteries on automo
biles free of charge. Our experts are
able to recognize the warnings thai
an abused battery gives, long before
; lnything serious happens. We fee
hat the car owner who avails himself
II this free service of ours will saw.
himself many repair bills which coult
II easily have been avoided.
I'VE have investigated the storag,
battery proposition pretty thoroly ant
We found in the Prest-O-Lite batter,
battery Of remarkable power ant
capacity. It's ability to maintain it!
voltage when giving off a large vol
me of current, insuring more efficien
operation Of the electric starter, i.
greater than any other battery. Th,
minimum amount of heat develope,
by the Prest-O-Lite battery insure,
, longer life.
! Most motorists are familiar will
Prest-O-Lfte service as applied to "a.
tanks. Thousands of users of electri,
starting and lighting systems hav,
'ong been waiting for the same salts
tying solution to their storage batter,
troubles.
when we consider the extent t,
which The Prest-OLite Company Il
developing the service end of it's bust
} ness, we decided that it was the righ
! Ihattery for us to handle.
