something. Lightning never turn
ed a wheel or a propeller, but tho
unlovely "juice" of the electric
cell hauls the coal from the mines
and marshalled America in war
against the submarine. Lightning
is the pendant dewdrop on a flow
er, sparkling in the sun. Elec
tricity in a battery is the water
drop tucked beside the root of a
growing plant. Lightning is a
peacock, the storage battery is the
industrious hen, producing the
better part of ham and eggs 300
days a year.
There always has been an ele
ment of mystery about this quiet
drudge working away in a small
box. Metals are submerged in an
acid or alkaline solution, and out
of it comes electricity to do the
world's work. But why? Well,
scientists as far back as the
Eighteenth- Century, beginning
with an Italian student named
Fabroni, worked it all out, and, as
always happens, two schools of
thought arose. Contact theory vs.
chemical theory haggled through
the Nineteenth Century making it
as vocal as the Twentieth Century
has been over the League of Na
tions. Plants and Faur
The public, however,, could not
get interested in theory; it wanted
practical application. Thus the

Making Batteries Better !
Battery service has reached a'
high state of efficiency.- The au
tomobilist of today can drive
around the corner to a service;
station and get his battery charg-i
edj watered, tested or' repaired:
with no trouble to himself and at,'
a minimum dost. '
Perfection bf battery part3 has:
witnessed nothing startling, but
has' marched along with steady
strides a new -idea in interior
improvement here, an innovation
in exterior strength there. All
has worked toward the same goal
the ideal battery which will
have no weak link, but which,
after affording the maximum of
service, will give out In entirety
much like the Deacon's wonderful
One Horse Shay.
Battery makers aro near, if hot
at, that goal' today. Separators,
the weakest item in a cell, have
been protected from impurities by
thin rubber sheets, and one manu
facturer, aiming toward structural
strength to withstand the vibra
tions of the motor car, has evolved
an unique rubber- gasket which
has made the battery cover liter
ally a spring top. The jolts for
merly communicated with disas
trous effect to the plates are ab
sorbed today by the gasket's re
siliency. v ,
The World1! Worker
Human invention in developing
the storage battery has never been
appreciated. Probably it never
will. Today farm houses are
cheerfully lighted, massive draw
bridges are lifted; automobiles and
airplanes are started, launches
and broughams are driven, mln
efs lamps Illuminate the crevices
in the shafts, automobile head
lights sweep the highways, and
radio calls the world to a single
gathering. The cause and reason
lie within the confines of a small
box tho modest container of elec
tric energy.
Tho funny part abotit it is tha;,
the waole principle got started ut
dcr the wrong name. A storage"
