"Most people can't understand why a t're wears out, or why bearing- points of a car works loose," says F. "V. ix-ti-ham. local Willard Service Station Dealer, "but they don't quito see why a battery should ever wear out." "Of course the main trouble Is that It's harder for anybody to imagine a hmlcal process than a mechanical one. and the battery is strictly chemical." "There Is cot much Inside of a battery. About all there is to it is a set of plates with insulators between each pair, and solution that covers both the plates and insulators. These plates are simply lattices of metallic lead filled with lead compaunds. The insulators may either be wood or be of Threaded Rubber." "Before a battery can be used at all it has to be charged . The electric current comi.ist In. causes certain chemical changes. When you turn on your lights or step on the starter, changes stft In the opposite direction and supply you with the current." "Of course this constant changingback and forth will wear out a battery in time. Jus-t as contact with the road will wear out a tire. And even if the battery is in storage and is kept charged, some wear will go on. as the chemicals are all present and are never ebeolutely Idle." "The way to get the lonrest life out ff your battery Is to, keep in mind the fact that its life depends to a create'extent on how well you treat it. and to remember to add water and mak.a hydrometer test at least once every two weeks"
