town the past ten days, in charge OF
County Chairman and Mrs. Geo. 3.
Galley, broke up yesterday and the

Galley that when he got ready to
move back to town he would send
out his big E. M. C. truck and haul the
camp equipment back to town free.
True to his word he did 50. Lynn
Cowell went out and brought in one
load and then he sent another fellow
after the other load and it was all
done quickly and nicely with the aid
of this powerful truck and this is
much appreciated by Mr.. Galley. The

Peoples Opinion. Mr.. Wing is good
newspaper man and we are told would
like to get hold Of the Peoples Opin-

we cannot say: This. is only street re

bunch who have been financing this
paper have become tired Of continual
shake-downs and are now willing to
turn the, job over to somebody else.
Too many cooks spoil the broth-and
so it is with any business, newspaper

a success Of this paper7is for some
body to own it and run it personally
without dictation or, without having

of II to 4. The boys are playing great
ball these days and our friends down

will make it three straight. Angel

got to him and pounded him out for
several hits and he was taken out and

not on our list, was sent in and he

take Good CARE
Of CAR BATTERY
Most Troubles Are Due toNFaiEure
of Owners to Carefully OBJ
serve instructions.
MAKE FREQUENT INSPECTIONS
See That Liquid Solution 10 Up TO
Proper Level and Save Expensive
DismantIina and Rebuilding
Some Simple Points.

Nearly all battery troubles are due
to the owners failure to observe a
few simple Instructions. The motor
list who gets the greatest power, the
most service and the longest life from
his storage battery Is the one who Is
cautious In the care Of 1t and makes
1t a practice to examine it at least
once every two weeks in winter to
see that the liquid solution Is up to
the proper level.
These periodical tests are highly
important. They enable you to tell
In advance when your battery is In
danger of being ruined through under
charging or overheating, when minor
troubles in the electrical system are
draining the strength. and endurance
Of your battery, when an inexpensive
freshening charge would save expen-
sive dismantIing and rebuilding later.
Few Simple Suggestions.
Here are few simple instructions,
which, If followed, will lengthen the
life of your battery, and give more
satisfactory service. g.
Under no circumstances use any
thing but pure distilled water.
Boiled" water will not do, 1t must
be distilled water from which all
impurities which would injure the bat
terry have been removed. If you do
not care to add distilled water your
self make arrangements with the near
est service station to do it for you.
Acid or electrolyte should never be
added except by an expert battery
man.
All metal parts Of connectors,
which are not lead-coated, should be
kept covered with a thin coating Of
vaseline.
Look at your battery occasionally,
and IL the solution has sprayed or
spilled. wipe clean with moist
sponge.
Don't lay tools, or anything else,
across the top of your battery.
Remember that your battery isn't
expected to keep spinning your engine
several minutes at time. 1t can do
it but 1t Is bound to shorten the bat
tery's life. .n,
If your engine does not start
promptly when you operate your
starter, make sure your ignition
switch Is turned on and that your
carburetor mixture Is rich enough be-
fore using your starter again.
In cold weather If your engine
doesn't start promptly see whether 1t
is being sufficiently 'primed.'
If your battery Is to stand idle with
your. car out Of commission for
month or more at time, take it out
Of the car and leave it with service
station to be cared for.
Cause Of Dim Lights.
If your lights are dim or there are
any other indications that your bat
terry is "run down." it may be due to
the fact that you are running the car
too little to keep the battery charged
or the generator may not be charging
properly, or wire "short circuited."
If you cannot easily locate the trou-
Bile, go to a service station and have
an inspection made, ..-.... ..e
