Where the retreat will end can
not be conjectured, as asevviy.liug

allied commander-in-ch chief.
The German position in the
vicinity of Chateau Thierry was

divisions re-crossed the Marne,
F'rauco-American troops carried
out an encircling movement from

which made it absolutely neces-

Battery Attention
Regarded ImpOran

Extra lights, trouble finders, cigar
lighters and other such attachments on
a motor car are, no doubt, great con
venlences; but they may cause a mo-
torist considerable trouble unless Le
gives attention to his battery.
These appliances all draw electric
ity from the battery, and often the
generator on the car is not adjusted
so that it will replace the current they
use and thus overcome the heavy drain
on the battery. As consequence the
motorist may find that his starter is
imperative, and cigar lighters are cold
comfort when you must crank your car
by hand The best way to eliminate
such trouble is to have a competent
battery man look over the car and
see if such devices are Overlooking
your battery.
"You do not need to pass up such
convenience" says Mr.. Degge, the To-
cal representative Of the Willard Stor-
age Battery company "if you have
your battery taken off the car and re-
charged at proper intervals. The cost
of recharging is small, but it is the
price one must pay for added electrical
attachments, if he wants to keep away
from trouble and Inconvenience"

power there is in o little storage bat
terry. An "Exide" battery weighing
60 lbs, will give one horse power for
approximately 80 minutes. This is
enough power to raise its own weight
to vertical height of nearly 6 miles,
This seems like power enough to start
the car an unlimited number Of times
but to crank an automobile engine a
battery must develop more than one
horse power for few seconds or min

therefore the current that is taken
