Most car owners believe the light

To be mastered. But 1t Is not ut all
difficult to learn how to take care Of
1t. The battery. the lights, the am
meter, the fuses and the wires can
readily be understood and should be
inspected occasionally. Every motor
list should know how to read u hydrom-
eter and test the battery. The cell
luloid hydrometer Is better than the
one made of glass, because 1t Is not
SO easily broken.
A reading of from 1915 10 1900 in
dicates that the battery is In good con.
dition and IL being properly charged
by the generator. If the reading Is
down to 1900 ii indicates that the
lights or the the starter are being used

Keep the battery terminals tight
and cover them with cup grease to

Always keep an extra supply of fuses
on hand. Learn the location of the
fuse for each set of lamps. This Is
easily determined by turning on all
the lights and pulling out the fuses
one at time When fuse burns out,
find the short circuit before replacing
It, otherwise you will burn out fuses
just as fast as you put them in.
