intimate talk on the working units of the automobile discussed
In such a way that the layman can easily understand them. It in
readlne thesf articles, as thev anoear In the Palladium each Sat

Women to Vote by Ideals, Not Party; Think Those of Richmond
The rapacity, or let U3 Pay, the1 amount of current which can be stored up in a storage battery, is given in ampere-hours, thus there are 40, 60, SO, 100, etc., ampere-hour batteries. The number of amperes flowing multiplied by the number of hours it flows, being the ampere hours. So a 60-ampere hour battery can yield 1 ampere for 60 hours, of 2 amperes for 30 hours, or 10 amperes for 6 hours, or 120 amperes for Vfe hour, etc. Also to bring a completely discharged 60-ampere-hour battery to a full charge, when charged by a five ampere current, the battery must be connected to this charging current frr 12 hours. As It is customary to give a battery a 10 per cent overcharge, It would, in fact, have to be connected long enough to give 08 ampere -hours, or 13 1-6 hours. Understanding the above will help you to tell what the condition of the battery of your car is. As, for example, a starting motor will requite anywhere from 11:0 to 250 amperes in
water it will sink to such a depth as to have the top of the water come to the 1000 mark on the scale, as Fig. 2. The very top is the 1000 mark of many hydrometers. If placed in a liquid heavier than the water, it will not sink so far, and the number to which the top of the liquid comes will rive the weight of the liquid as compared to the weight of the water. Thus the liquid in Fig. 3 weighs 1.3 as much as water does. So then, to test a battery to see how the chares is. draw out some of
the electrolyte and place into it the hydrometer. When the reading is: 1.275 to 1.300 battery is fully charged. 1.260 battery is charged. 1.210 battery is charged 1.160 battery is M charged. 1.120 batetry is discharged. A special hydrometer syringe, with which the electrolyte can be drawn out of the battery., and also containing the hydrometer, can be purchased at any accessory store, and will prove a handy device to have.
If several Richmond women are to be taken as representative of sentiment among the women to be voters, candidates are going to have to watch their step and each to have an eye, not only for !Js party's standards, but his own ideals. During the past week a reporter

order to crank the engine. Assum-'
ine that it requires a 180-ampere cur
rent, then a fully charged CO-ampere-! hour battery would be completely dis-l eharsed in one-third of an hour, or; twenty minutes. Now, the charging cenerator charges at about a 6 am- I pere rate, so that it would take 11 ' hours to charge this battery. Thusj you see it takes about thirty minutes , of running to send back the same , amount of current Lo a battery as is ! taken out or used up in one rainu'e , of use of the self starter. At night 1 the lights will take all of the current I made by the generator, and so there I will be no charging. A battery will i also discharge very slowly when idle. I
From the above you ran see that ! charging current must be connected when the starter is much used, and! to the positive of the battery, and the ear driven for short runs only, j the negative to the negative. The the battery will become (discharged i voltage of the charging current should

should fill the battery with distilled ! number
'not filtered) water. The hydrometer, syringe referred to above is an excellent device for doing this. Filling with distilled water is extremely important if the battery is to have a long and efficient life. Ho not attempt to test the battery after filling with water: Never put acid into the battery. A storage battery can only be charged by a direct current, and when
charging the positive wire of the

Testing the Battery. Sulphuric acid is much heavier than is water, and so a solution of sulphuric a'id and water (as the If ct rolyte , will be heavier than water, and the iM-in. r the proportion of acid to water i:ie heavier will bt? the solution. When the electrolyte- is first poured in-o the battery, much of the sulphuric acid will be absorbed by the plat ?. and so the electrolyte becomes liahtrr in weight, the proportion of hi .d to water becoming k-r.-. As the lia'tery is charged, however, the sulphuric atid is thrown out of the plates ;md into the electrolyte again, thus making the electrolyte hea ter. As
he battery is discharged, the ncain be absorbed, and the 1 rolvi become li-jhtfr.
be somewhat greater than that of the
battery, while the amperage should not be above one-tenth of the capacity. When a battery is charged or discharged very quickly, it will overheat, and this overheating may result in the plates warping When the plates warp the paste will fall out of the grids. Not only will this prevent the battery from taking a charge, but it will short circuit the plates at the bottom. For this reason, the battery must be charged slowly. I'sing the starting motor for a considerable time at a stretch means a quick discharging and a possible overheating and warping. Therefore, if the engine

Do not leave a battery standing in a discharged state lor any length of time. It is a good practice to wipe the terminals with a cloth on which there is a little vaseline. Acid must never be put into the battery. If the elr. t rol t e is spilled by accident, the battery must be refilled with a solution of acid and water.

is the ideal cereal food for young' folks: a builder of muscle and mind for everybody There's a Reason
questioned several prominent women as to whether they were going to : vote; if they would vote a straight! ticket; and what tthcy thought about; ticket; and what they thought about i results: ) 'Undoubtedly I shall vote for the : man and not bother about his poli-, tics," said Mrs. William Dudley : Foulke, an ardent believer in the fu-; ture which lies just ahead for women' In America. Mrs. Foulke, who ridicul-j ed the idea of rigid straight ticket voting said: j "If we wish good government we i certainly can not stand back of badly ' qulified candidates, simply because;
they happen to be seeking oince on a particular ticket!" Will Vote Alike Mrs. Foulke believes a large number of husbands and wives, fathers and
daughters, and brotthrs and sisters may vote alike to a large degree, not because one has coerced the oiiier. i-u' because of congeniality and consider-, ation together. "I hope deeply, however, that the new voters will not allow themselves! to become feeble mindd, follow ihe; leaders: but will think along with; the older voters." I Mrs. Foulke added that housewives,': mothers and business women will find
a consideration ot tne government under which they live, a splendid thing to include in their lives, a form of; thought which will come as a relief; ftom the more immediate businesses; which they pursue. : 'A very large majority of the wo-; men I know are going to vote, and vote for the man regardless of his , politics." said Mrs. A. W. Roach, who! said she had found that women in the east, where she recently presided at; the War Mothers' convention, are no more enthusiastic than are the women with whom she comes in contact ! in Indiana. i Will Want Offices "Women are not just wanting to vote, either." added Mrs. Roach, "but they want to hold office where it will be "of benefit to their children and community to do so. "I believe, and 1 find that ,i large
of my friends believe, that
we should have a woman on our school boards, and on our board of county commissioners. This does not come from a selfish motive but from a motive which is very near to the heart of every mother. Is it not natural that a mother wants to know.- who is going to teach her children, and that the community her children are going to grow up in is governed by clean politics ? "I believe you will find women essentially standing for clean fair playin politics. 1 find that the women in the west where they have perhaps been interested and observing polities longer, stand as a body for squareness," said Mrs. Roach. "I voted several times in California.
and I found that my father and 1 often agreed, but there were occasions when our votes were not identical," said Miss Francis Mitchell, daughter of the Rev. Andrew F. Mitchell of the South Eighth Street Friends church. Miss Mitchell lived in California several years before, coming to Richmond, and was therefore one of the first women of the United States to se-
cure enfranchisement. She laughed at the idea that voting takes a woman's time either from her professional business o.- from the business of taking care of her home. Does Not Lose Time, j "It takes about three minutes on I election day, and an alert mind the J rest of the year." she said. ; She said that she had often voted a j straight ticket, although if she prej ferred a candidate on another ticket ; she used no hesitation in scratching
for him. "In my opinion every woman will sooner or later have to ally herself with a political party." said Mrs. V W. Caar. She explained she did not believe it feasible to vote tlie Democratic ticket one year and the Republican ticket the next. "I is the new voter's dutv. 1 believe.
to study the American government, and its politics and then become a member of the party with the platform most to her liking," said she. "Relieving that vacillation gets nowhere, I shall vote the straight liepublican ticket for the most part. I am a Republican, I expect, because my family has had Republican lean
ings, but also because I believe in a protective tariff, and various other
j parts of its platform." I Mrs. Gaar expressed the opinion ;tha; women will stand as a body i gainst war, and t Ira. t they will favor the constructive elements rather than 'he destructive elements in political parties. j Will Ee Against War. j "In my acquaintanceship I find a ! vast number of women greatly interested in the problems of today, and as 'most of these problems are going to
be questions at issue in our elections I believe the representation of women at the polls will be very large," said
i Mrs. Stephen C. Markley. Mrs. Markley pointed to the fact that women, especially young women, have had the same educational opporI tunities, and chance to study national j questions as have men during the past few years. i "If this will not point to an intense ; interest in the next election, what i would?" she asked.
! "Just now every woman is interest-
i ed in whether we are going to have i war or peace in the future; every wo'wan wants to know that her husband, , her son, her father, or her brother, is : not going to be again subject to the ; horrors of war. If the League of Na
tions is made a partisan anair which I do not think it should be I shall certainly vote for the party favoring its ratification."
BOTH PARTIES NOMINATE HAGERSTOWN. Ind.. Oct. 17. The ; Republicans and Democrats both held meetings this evening to nominate councilmen from the fourth and fifth wards, a town clerk and town treasurer. The town election will take place November 4. The Republicans nominated Frank Sherry and Professor W. F. Collins respectively for the 4tb and 5th wards; for treasurer, Darwin Durbin; and for clerk, Robert B:son. now acting in that capacity. The Democrats nominated Daniel Clark for the 4th ward, and Wesley McCollough for the 5th, with Thad McCown, present treasurer, for that office, and D. L. Cartwell, clerk.
