THE TIMES

INT TINKER WITH YOUR STORAGE BATTERY

Yesterday morning- an automobile limped up to a local I'rpst-O-Llte beivice Station and the man at the wheel asked for Charlie Lauer, "I have a battery that's a weak sister," he ft: Id. "How long since you've had It tested." Mr. Iauer asked. "I tested it myself yesterday morning." the man replied. 'What else did you do?" "Well. It wasn't giving me any power to speak of so I put in a little sulfhurlc acid and water, and " "Stop:" Lauer almost lost his comfsure. "Do you remember that song. You Made Me What I Am Today. I Hope Your Satisfied'? That is what your battery would sir.? now If it had ;my voice left. I only hope you have nu ruined It entirely. You'd better ;ave It with us for a few days and t.ike a service battery to u -e In its place, but please don't take any lib

erties with the battery we lend you. "Bt-fore you go." continued Lauer. "let me give you some advice. You have heard it all before, but evidently ycu had an idea that it wasn't meant seriously. In the first place, let the Presto-O-Lite Service Station test your battery every two weeks and add distilled water if necessary. This doesn't cost you a nickel it's part of our jjb. It there Is anything wronr with it. or If It needs charging, one of our experts will give it the right attention. No acid should ever be added by the user, as this is an expert's Job. Don't lay too:?, or anything else for that matter, across the top of your battery. The chances are about a hundred to one you will short-circuit it If you do. Mt member at all times that there are Kood reasons why the makers of the battery avk you to take their word for the soundness of their advice, and ou'll save money, time and annoyance. 'The storage battery Is one of the ir.ost sensitive articles on your car. I'roperly cared for. it will serve you tinkered with, it will oh. you know what !t will do." "Yes. I know," said the motorist ahe stepped on tho starter and the Pre-st-0-L.it" ."v-rvice battery vigorously began turning over the engine. ..'1!LE - - '. - UH 1

THE FEAST OF TABERNACLES

During a period of eight days, beginning on the eve of the twenty-sixth

day of September and ending cm October jtho fifth, the Jews will celebrate the

Keast of Tabernacles. Once a year Israel revives its love of the soil, and makes public avowal of the fact that even an industrial civilization such as ours, depends primarily upon the elements of nature. This restatement of love for and confidence in Mother Earth is ineed a fact of Jewish religiousness. We know and wo reassure ourselves that God is at the center of life through all the seasons that the prosperity and the satisfaction wo seek come or do not come according to His Law. Judaism is a religion In the very midst of the pnssli.ns, aspirations and complications of life. Nowhere are those more insistent than in the economic interests of men. Here religion has a duty as well as an opportunity. Judaism endeavors not merely to fortify nun In their difficulties ns to their daily bread, but also to keep them moral, largehearted and just. The Sukkoth I'Vstival is meant not as a season of self-congratulation on

having: garnered in the product of the farm or the gains of business, but as lima for thought on the larger-scoped social interests of men in the national and international i..e. The Jews are tho lrst to havo recognised political economy ns tho field where religion and morality must operate for the good of men. In Its modern form the suggestiveness of this truth of the Sukkoth Festival is made more effective by the fact that it occurs nt the beginning of the Autumn, coincident with the increased activities o the -economic agencies. It is. as it were, a timely lesson for each one. to interpret his life as of larger scope, related to the national life and made possible in fulness only within it. The "dwelling In booths" as characteristic of the lfibical phase of the Festival and observed as an archaic sympollsm nowadays is a suggestive domestic ritual which re-affirms the lessons of "the simple life" and the democracy of the Jewish household. The live sympolic plants hint that, as the gifts of Clod In nature vary and In their totality make human life sweet and satisfactory. so the difference among men, as to service and character, may serve to make "society" an

. .i . . "1 l"

organization in which each one of us has a place and can make a helpful contribution. Some more effective, j

some less; some nobzle, and some commonplace; some for tho day and some

for all time, according to what they do j and what they are. ! The Sukkoth Festival Is the cul-'

mutating lesson of the series of holidays of the month. It addresses itself to the facts of life which we might, otherwise, leave sordid. It widens the horizon of our individual interests. It approves our vo-ations and labors not when they bring private satisfactions

but when they vitalize our common humanity and make us more efficient in the work upon which depend the weal, the peace and the joy of tlv community.
