GILL BATTERIES
STAND THE TEST

Talk about being sold on an ar
ticle, / don't believe you could get
George Livermore, of San Bernardo
no, to use any other battery except
Gill, even fyOu would give it to
him." says Frank Hager, Gill dealer
at San BernardinO, according to H.
Payne local distributor for this nom
separator battery.
"Soon after Hager opened his sta
tion about three years ago. says
Payne, he sold a Gill battery to
LivermOre, who was starting for his
ranch in North Dakota. The battery
went through without trouble, of
course, and since has made three
round trips from California to North
Dakota It was recently taken out,
after more than two years OF service,
for recharge
"One of the unusual things which
happened to this battery, according
to Hager's report as told him by
Livermore, was the fact that the
owner took it out of his car at the
North Dakota ranch last winter, and
put in up on a shelf in his house for
winter storage. Livermore thought
so much of the battery that he would
let no one else touch it. In the
spring he took the battery out plac-
ed it in the car without any atten-
tion-it did not even need water
and made the trip back to San Ber-
nardinO.
1T is rather unusual for a battery
to go into winter storage and not
need a charge when put back into
service Separator type batteries
would have to be dismantled and re-
and it would be practical
ly impossible to set a separator bat
terry up on a shelf for months with
out causing damage, unless it was
dried out first or given frequent
charge during its idleness. This is a
concrete demonstration Of the eXtraor-
binary advantages of the Gilt non
separator construction"
