ID0N'TS FOR THE
 STORAGE BATTERY
Sterling Edwards Gives Out Some Excellent
 Information

"Ttle motorist who will examine the battery of his car regularly every week and heed the following instructions VIII continue to receive satisfactory service from his battery day after day, says Sterling Edwards, local dealer in Chevro- let passenger cars and trucks. Don't allow your storage battery to stand in a discharged condition for any length of time Should the battery for any reason, become discharged, have it fully charged at once at the nearest garage or charging station. A battery when in discharged condition, sul- plates rapidly, making charging ex- timely hard and in time entirely destroy ing the elements.
 Don't allow dirt water or any pieces of metal to come in contact with or re- main on tho top of your battery. Inspect regularly and keep clean.
 Don't continue to crank your engine with the starting motor if it does not start after a. few revolutions. Something is wrbng with your ignition system or carbureter Locate and remedy the trouble before again cranking the engine. Just turning the engine over will not help Nou start, but it will exhaust your battery if continued for any length of time, T says Mir. Edwards.
 -t'Dotl't forget to turn on the ignition switch before attempting to start the motor
 "Dop't forget that you must restore Tn the battery whatever current mas been withd Tawn for starting. It requires apout 20 times as long to restore current to the battery as it takes to remove the same amount in starting the engine.
 Don't turn on all the light of your car and leave it standing for several hours. Conserve the battery supply but using only such lamps as are absolutely needed to prevent accident. "DoH't allow the battery to become loose bu the brackets.
