Gillin Explains Why
I.avier Plates Add to
Life Of Batteries

The plate is the core Of the battery.
ALI else is incidental; the plate is the
vital thing says John Z. Gillin III,
distributor for Ray batteries.
1T is through the chemical action
Of the electrolyte-th liquid within
the battery-on the plates, that elec-
trical energy is generated.
''The plate itself consists Of a lead
grid base, filled with paste.
The power and stamina of bat
terry is dependent on the plate. The
chemical formula of the paste in the
plates vary for every battery. But
since the invention of the first wet
cell battery, these formulas have varied
but little-all have been similar.
Minor improvements have been
made from time to time in the con-
tainers for the plates, electrolyte and
ed as to the best separators to put
between the positive and negative
plates-tO keep them from coming in
contact and so short circuiting; but
no important advance has ever been
made in the plate-the vital thing it.
self-until the discovery by Thomas
LAWYER of what is now known as the
'Lavier formula for the wet cell bat
terry plate.
Thomas Lavier was one Of the
pioneer experimentalists in motor car
battery development Some four years
previous to his discovery: he told his
associates that the trouble proof in
expensive battery of the future would
be based on then unbound chemical
Of electrical law. In face of discour-
agement and criticism, he applied him.
self to find this new principle, and he
succeeded, where others had failed.
He built battery with plates
from his newly discovered formula. It
was given every known test, and it
these tests in a way that
no other battery ever approached
Hundreds of batteries with the Lavier
formula plates were built and tested
in the next two years.

More Than 500 Trucks Show
Mileage Of 100000 Miles
or More.

There are many ways in which q
high grade truck differs from one Of
cheaper make in its value to the own

company. But these differences be-
come to much more apparent as time
elapses and mileage accumulates, that
it is safe to say that mileage is the
most essential difference in the end

able service.
Trucks are like men in this re-

and tear of work and strain leave their
imprint on them, the weak grow weak

Only the strong survive in active SER
vice.
Time Important Element.
There is no test of trucks STAN
ina so fair and final as the volume
OF work it does over a long period of
time. ~
OF course, the type of work and
kind of roads and degree of care are
factors in the mileage test; for this
reason. isolated cases of high mileage
mean little or nothing. They can be
picked out of any large group of op-
Grating units.
Every year the White company
publishes list of White trucks whose
owners nave reported service records
Of 100000 miles or more. These
trucks represent all kinds of work.

they also vary in their age. The list
is probably far from complete owing
to the difficulty in getting authentic
records: but it is large enough to be
conclusive for average performance.

MANY SHADE TREES

Forestry Department to Coop

Roads.

The growing sentiment for beauti-
flying the improved highways Of the
country by planting Of shade trees,
shrubbery and hedges along both sides
Of the roadway is in some instances
crystallizing into action.
The state highway. department OF
Pennsylvania has begun planting a
large number of American elms and
sugar naples along the state highway
between Gettysburg and Harrisburg.
The work is being done under the di-
rection Of the state forestry depart
ment.
State Highway Commissioner Sadler
says it is the aim Of the department
eventually to beautify all the main
highway routes in Pennsylvania
shade trees. A plan has been worked
out with the aid of the forestry de-
partment whereby comprehensive
system of planting trees along state
highways will be taken up. The high
way commissioner, having designated
the highway to be planted, the COM
missioner of forestry will inspect the
highway, recommend the species to be
planted and will give in detail the
planting operations, such as distance,
care Of stock, size and depth Of holes,
setting of the trees, fertilizers. stalk
ing trees, planting crew, necessary
tools, approximate time required and
other details. State foresters will di-
rect the operations and inspect the
trees from time to time.
In order to make success Of work
such as this it is necessary, according
to Pennsylvania officials to obtain the
hearty co operation of the adjacent
landowners and securing. their per-

along the highways if these are four

FIND EELs' BREEDING PLACE
Why the Discovery Ia Considered Of
importance to the People Of
European Courtries

There has always been a mystery
about the eels. No one knew just
where they came from.
1t is said to have been solved by
Danish scientists who discovered by a
deepsea exposition that cells leaving
northwest Europe go to a place near
the West Indies, where conditions for
the development OF their larvae are
favorable. The larvae afterward make
their way back to the places from
which their parents started on the
European coasts. This discovery Is not
only Of geographical interest, but will
also yield very practical results.
The supply Of eels in the breeding
places Is said to be inexhaustihle, and
there will be an unlimited supply Of
eel food for European countries Eels
only undertake the journey from and
back to the breeding place once in
their lives.
