Methods of Charging Storage

CAN rights resolved by United
Feature Syndicate. Reproduction
prohibited)
Many radio enthusiasts having
electricity i'm the house for lighting
purposes would prefer to charge
their storage battery themselves
rather than go to the trouble OF re-
moving the battery to a service sta
ton.
Lighting circuits are usually at a
potential of about 10 volts while the
voltage for charging a siX-vOlt stor-
age battery should be only slightly
greater than the voltage Of the bat
terry. 1t is therefore necessary TO
reduce the Voltage from 10 volts
to a voltage Of proper value TO charge
the battery AZ the specified rate.
Lighting circuits are fed from
either direct current or alternating
current sources. Alternating current
which reysrses its direction in the
wires in way which would alter

Der of occasions by officials of the
Tri-City Railway company that the
company would gladly dispose of
the island to the state at a mod
crate figure. This desire was re-
iterated by T. C. Roderick of the
railway company in his conference
with Mr. Harper Tuesday. Acqui-
sition of the land by the state, il is
believed, would mean the develop
ment of the island into one of the
finest state-owned parks in Illinois.
Since the popularizing of the au-
tomobile running street cars TO
amusement parks in a community
of this size is not an extremely
profitable enterprise. Few people
ride on the street cars. Neither is
it profitable for a transit company
to operate amusement parks on
account of the automobile. Those
who travel in automobiles drive to
the park. stay a few minutes and
resume their drive, without patron
iZing any of the concessions.
