Interests to be Enlisted

The country schools must be reor-
ganized, so that farm children can en-
joy as good an education as town
children. The country church must
be once more made a spiritual and
social center to hold people together.
The man who tills the soil must be
given better methods of farming, SO
that soil will not be depleted and he
will make q profit. There must be
better roads, so country people can get
around more freely, and haul their
stuff to market. There must be more
comfort in farm homes, more interest
and opportunity in farm life. The
country must be made not merely a
better place to live, but the only place
for country people.

Charging the battery does not

of electricity the plates are being

Because it is a chemical appara-

LOOK INTO THE CAR
BEFORE BUYING It,
SAYS HEN NDERSON

'In uying cars nowadays" re-

to look for looks, but one should not
forget quality also. One should con-
slider well the chassis of car be-
fore buying, for external appearance
may hide multitude of defects. If
a person will examine the Elgin Six
in a fair mind, they will find it full
of extra value, comfort and superior
construction. Every unit of this
wonderful "six" has proven efficient
and durable.
I owe have succeeded in getting oul

BATTER|ES,L|KE TIRES
WILL WEAR OUT SAYS
LOCAL WILLARD MAN

"The storage battery" says c. f.
Coggins, the local Willard expert, "is
just as liable to wear out as tires,
and, like the tire, it must be given
careful attention by the owner if the
longest possible life is to be obtained
from it.
"a storage battery is a chemical
apparatus consisting of positive and
negative lead plates immersed in
electrolyte-a solution of sulphurlc
acid. When the starting motor is
used or the lights or ignition put on
the circuit, a certain electro-cheml-
cal action takes place between the
positive and negative plates in the
presence of the electrolyte, and cleo
tricity flows through the wires.
GAS this chemical action continues
the character of the plates changes
and the current will, ultimately, cease
to flow and the battery will be dead.
This condition, however, is forestalled

TWO CARS SURVIVE WITHOUT
MAKING RADICAL CHANGES

Strange as it may seem, only two
cars made in the United States to-
day retain the same general design
and similar mechanical construction
that were embodied in their building
four years ago.
One of these is the Chandler Six
and the other a low-priced car Of well
known make. The Chandler of today.
although Incorporating a number Of
detailed improvements and refine
ments, is essentially the same as it
was in 1913, according to II. F.
O'Bryne, Imperial Valley distributor,
and whatever good or bad was said
about the car of that date may be
applied to the latest offering.
When the present distributors in
Los Angeles acquired the Chandler six
line they took over from their pre-
decessors a chankshaft that was car
ried in the stock of parts. This
chankshaft never has been used, as
this part never has been replayed in
any Chandler car old here, but it is
available for use at any time; and,
although made four years ago, will
fit perfectly into today's mechanism.
The Chandler was the first car of
its type, weight and class built to
sell for less than $4,000, and was the
forerunner of all the now so-called
light skies, Mr.. O'Bryne says. The
fact there never has been an essen
tial change in the motor made in all
this time, he says, proves that the
car was right in design and construc-
ton at the start.
Twenty-Five years ago F. C. Chand-
Ter, from whom the car received its
name; c. E. Emise and s. Regar were
employed by the elder H. A. Lozier
the celebrated marine and automobile
motor builder, in minor capacities
They formed a personal association

as we have pointed out, he should ex.
pect to buy new battery some day
This is just as reasonable an expense
as buying a new tire.
"From the foregoing, it is perfect
ly obvious that batteries must be
made of the best quality possible to
begin with, and then, if they are to
be kept in efficient condition, they
must have good treatment at the
hands of the owners. 1t is Impossible
to prescribe any definite term of life
for a storage artery, for its period
of efficiency may vary greatly, ac-
cording to the two factors just men
toned, as well as in accordance with
the quality and condition Of the start
ing motor and generator"
