V 1 The experiments. Sergeant Zimmer man said, have been under way here for s year as the results of an inves tigation begun in a bug-infested bar racks In Luxemberg, under the direc tion of Captain Armstrong of the Fifth division signdl corps with which Sergeant Zimmerman was serving shortly after the armistice. “At that time we were having night school and were working on the short est possible wave length, getting an lew as one-fourth of a meter,” the sergeant explained. “Radio sets ware located three feet apart, on* a glass- topped table. “One night everything was working perfectly when suddenly our tubes be gan to act queerly. By the flickering light of the candle we Anally located ‘Mr. Cockroach’ sitting in the apace between tbe receiving and transmit ting apparatus. We removed him and, to our surprise, the apparatus became normal. This led us to believe be was capable of making electric power.” Tbe sergeant declared one insect radios to another, and this belief, be by his experiments, in my experimental ,u-l “1 have wort,” he asserted, “that a cockroach has a wave length of between one-hen Inch and one Inch, with a very low frequency.” Tbe tumble bug and moth are also endowed with radio power, be added, while beetles show only alight evi dence of possessing wlreleaa habits.

A local battery expert says three things are necessary—start with a standard •f battery, service it properly with frequent and regular testing and filling, guard against overheating doe to overcharging. These admonitions would appear simple enough and easy to follow, hut when one considers the fact that there are ever two hun dred kinds of storage batteries on the market, only eight or ton of which can reasonably be called standard makes, that moat people are extremely careless about giving any attention whatever to the battery on their oar, and that fewer still know when they are over charging their batteries, it is mo wonder that the manufacturer^ must maintain service stations all over the country. < The Willard Stonge Battery Company of Cleveland, long ago realising this need for a high grade product and careful attention to that product, established a service station organization whose motto ‘Through Servioe We Grew” h u made them the largest oote- fron}; fender.
