NBATTERY FOR
RADIOON MARKET
Westinghouse Program
for Remainder of Week
Announced

A special storage battery adapt
ed for wireless telegraph and tele,
phone sets has been placed on sale
here by local battery dealer and
lB expected to provo a boon To
radio enthusiasts because OF the
high price Of automobile batteries,
which have been used in the past.
With scores Of radiophones scat
tered throughout Falrmont and the
outlying districts, wireless ana.
tours arc becoming more numcr-
Gus each week.
Each evening the radio cnthu.
stasts and their friends enjoy
musical programs, lectures. vaude-
yillc skits and the like. which are
broadcasted from tho kDkA sta
tlon of the Westinghouse Electric
and Manufacturing company at
East Pittsburgh, Pa, which broad
casts on $50 meter wave length.
Tho new battery is made in
several different capacities, suited
to the various demands OF anna.
tour and professional. II is made
with the famous "thread-rubber"
insulation between plates. and is
encased in solid one-piece or
"mono-bloc" rubber case, acid
proof and indestructible. Having
done away with tho usual jars by
building the three cells into the
case. and having eliminated wood
entirely from tho battery by the
rubber case aud rubber insulation,
this firm has evidently produced a
battery that should reasonably be
expected TO last tho wireless bug"
practically a lifetime.
Many boys have been frequent.
ing the battery service stations In
search of battery suitable for
radio work, and because of the
high price Of automobile batteries
have had TO content themselves
with used batteries Of doubtful life
and serviceability. or In many
cases to do without the coveted
battery.
