HOW A MANS BATTERY
REVEALS HIS CHARACTER

eve battery men," says Mr.. Hen
derson, the local Willard expert, get
so that we can tell in general mans
character from his battery.
"The man who is naturally careful
is the one whom We see every month.
He runs I'D to the door and has Us
test his battery and nine times out
Of ten goes away with a clean bill-of-
health. His battery is always filled
and since the level never fuctuate3
we know that it is filled regularly.
Sometimes before the regular
time. for his visit he will come down
and explain that something seems to
be wrong and when we ask him why,
we learn chat he has been using his
hydromcter syringe as regularly as
he has filled the battery with water.
"At the end of the year, if he is
going to store his car, he brings it
in and stores it with us, giving orders
to renew the insulation in the spring.
eff he is running his car through
the winter he will usually have his
battery ovorhauled at the same time
that he has the rest of the machine
overhaulcd for the opening of the
next season.
Occasionally we run into the
parsimonous man. He is the one
who gives his battery good care, but
penny wise and pound foolish, when
some small adjustment needs to be
made, he neglects it, hoping thus to
save a penny. 1t gets worse and
worse and at last when the battery
is practically ruined he will bring it
in to US for repairs. Of course, he is
the dissatisfied user, too.
"Then we have the impulsive man,
the one who will run in every week
to get his battery tested for month
or two and then let it go for 6 months
and come in with his battery in pref
ty bad condition. He has entirely
forgotten it. He recognizes the
fault as his and has it fixed up with
out throwing the burden of the blame
on the battery.
"This is the man that breezes in
and says, My battery is on the bum,
fix it up runs out again, comes in
the next day and wants to know
why it isn't fixed up, thinks it is ter
ribly slow work but is perfectly good
naturcd about it.
when we see battery with the
box all corroded from over-hlling or
careless filling we can only surmise
that its owner, careless in the use of
the car, is careless and neglectful
III other ways.
When we get for repairs BAT
terry that has been patched and re-
patched and then patched again I'M
I'll 1t has come to the point where re-
pairs are really more expensive than
a new battery, we naturally sur
mise that its owner is something of
a "tight-wad." in fact, to the ex-
perienced battery man there are as
many signs OF character In battery
as tnere are in mans handwrlt-
ing"

il ourSeaders fail to read them, they
will misaane of the best features of
the paper. NE Herald regrets that
it was unable toSandie all of the hol-
;iday advertising a. the county this
year, but the. limitations of the force
made it impossible to print a large
edition of the paper. Then, too, the
government restriction against issu-
ing special editions was only taken
of on December 18th, making the
time very short in which to prepare
the reading matter and advertise
ments for this issue of the paper. To
our advertisers we express our thanks
for the liberal business given us in
Che past, and we wish each of them
81 prosperous and successful year dur

Some people, particularly the Re-
of the old school, the dyed
in-the-wool variety, are worrying
half to death because the
president has gone to Europe to at
tend the sessions of the peace con-
ference. Now, you need not lay in
your bed at night and lose sleep ov-
er Woodrow Wilson. 1t won't do
any good, because if Woodrow sets
his head on attending the peace con-
ference, attend the peace conference
he will, and we don't imagine he
is losing much sleep over what some
Republicans think about it. Also, if
it were not necessary for him to 60,
he would not have done so. For our
part, we long ago quit having any
doubts about anything that Wilson
does. Wilson will prove himself
right, and you will find that you were
silly to question his acts; sc the best
thing to do, when you read that the
president is going to do this or that,
is. to join in and support the presi-
dent, putting confidence in him for
all that you don't know, which is US
ually a good deal, about his reasons
for doing it.

South Carolina figures in about ev-
erything that goes On in this world.
It took the Thirtieth Division, COM
posed largely of South Carolina boys,
to show those Germans what a real
soldier was, and then when the pres
ident went to church in Paris the
other day, he heard a sermon by one
of South Garolina's foremost preach
ers, Bishop Query, of the Episcopal
church. The bishop has been in Eu-
rope for some time doing war work
for his denomination. In the morn
ing the president and Mrs. Wilson
attended the presidents own church,
