DON'T DOPE YOUR
BATTERY
By ERWIN GREER
president Greer College of
Automotive Engineering.)

In the old days, gasoline economic
ers were quite in style with the get
rich-quick fiends. They were much
more common than they are now.
One could buy them in powder, tablet
or liquid form and probably admins
ter them in homeopathic or allOpathic
doses-for the effect was just the
same.
AS long as the car owner was very
careful to have the carbon removed
from the engine cylinders. the valves
ground and the c~arburetor adjusted
and then apply the so-called econo-
mizer to the fuel tank, he was certain
to get greater mileage of gasoline
And no wonder!
The same thing applies t. the pres
ent-day storage battery "rejuvenat-
ors," "r~echarging solutions" and wha;
not that are beirg sold as mysterious
compounds and wonderful discoveries
which recharge your storage battery
in twenty minutes. Any battery ser
vice station can do the same thing By
doping a battery with strong acid
but they know the harmful effects o
such treatment.
The surprising thing is the wiling
ness of many people to pay fabulOu
prices, three to five dollars beinI
asked for q single application of thes
"dopes,'' when most storage batter
service stations would do the sam
: thing for Is cents.
There is nothing mysterious abol
pouring strong acid solution into

/ way is to pay three to five dollars (

AMMETER Tells
IMPORTANT TALE
Driver Should Learn to Watch
Dial, Declares
Expert
By o. E. HUNT,
AutOm0tiy

The ammeter, the least understood
dial on the instrument board of a
motor car, is in many ways the most
important.
Few automobile owners, however,
understand the story the ammeter
tells as the miles fly by. The am
meter is the guardian of the whole
electrical system of the car, particu-
larly during the extreme of winter
cold and summer heat, and is connect
ed to every bit Of electrical apparatus
with the sole exception of the starting
motor.

Tells Whole Story.

motor.
Tells Whole Story.
If you get acquainted with the am
meter it will tell you at a glance
whether or not the whole system is
E%functioning properly. It viii tell you
if one of the headlights is out; it
will tell you if there is a short cir
cult in the line; it will warn you in
a moment if the generator fails to
function. An understanding glance
at the ammeter every 20 miles or so
is a trouble saver of great impor-
lance.
When the motor is started, and ev-
erything is working properly, the lit
tie hand moves over to a certain spot
on the charging side and there it in
variably rests-varying in location
with the speed of the car-until some
thing goes wrong in the electrical sys-
tenn. If one of the headlights goes
out the ammeter shows a slight in
crease in the charging rate ;if the
generator fails to function for any
treason, the hand swings away over to
the discharge side and the driver
knows that the whole load is being
carried by the battery.
The ammeter never shows the full
flow of electricity from the generator,
but it does indicate the amount Of
electricity that is flowing in or out
of the battery, hence the Importance
of the tell-tale current Indicator and
its ability to tell what is going on
along the line.
The layman might ask why it is
important to know the exact minute
when the generator ceases to func-
: ton as long as the car will keep on
: running with the current from the
n battery. One important reason is 4
