FREEZING BATTERIES
A Willard Expert Says Undercharge
lng Cauae of Moat Winter
Troubles.
It take a temperature of about 10()
ilrurcei below rcro to frccx a fully
charged battery. On the other hand,
a battery that in .ilniutt exhausted will
frccse at about 20 decrees nliove zero.
In general it inijlht be said that the
car owner who keeps hi battery in
a fully charged condition need have
nu (car of his battery freezing, but he
will have to watch it pretty closely
to see that it is kept1 fully charged.
: This is one of many inlercstiiiH
points touched upon in the new book
let on "Winter Care" which the Wil
lard Storage Battery Company has
'recently brought out. In discussing
this booklet, the Willard expert says:
"Whether' a man uses his car or
lays it up during the winter, the stor
age battery must have particular at
tention. If he runs the machine, his
battery is quite heavily worked, crank
ing the engine in the morning when
it is cold supplying the light for driv
ing in the early evenings and long
nights. Unless the battery is watched
pretty closely there Is the possibility
of its giving out more energy than it
is receiving from the generator. This
means a starved battery and a starved
battery frecics very easily.
'"If, on the other hand, the car
owner stores bis car, his battery
should be fully charged and inspect
ed at regular periods so that it can
be kept In a fully charged condition.
Otherwise, it is liable to be dead when
it is taken out in the spring.
In tho new booklet on "Winter
Core" the Willard Storage Battery
company has pointed out to motorists
what the chief hatetry troubles are hi
winter, how they arise and how they
can be avoided. This booklet ought
to be very interesting to every car
owner. .
This booklet, like the rest of the
Willard literature, can be had for the
asking by sny motorist who is interested.

DOWN ON THE BORDER.
The Soldier Learn a Whole. Lot of

(U. P. Staff, correspondent)
El Paso, Tex., Nov. 16. In er.um
crating the beneficial results of the
mobilization of national guardsmen
upon the border someone has dwelt
upon the educational advantages.
' Every one of the hundred-odd
thousand militiamen," they say "will
go back to his home with a clearer
knowledge of a new section of our
country and an educational under
standing of the Mexican situation."
So as soon as the ter, are up and
he can get "town leave" the newly ar
rived guardsman hurries down to
learn all he can about the Mexicans
and the "situation," see the famous
International bridge and catch a
glimpse of the turbulent country at
the other end of it. It is a thrilling ex
perienceif the "guardia" has imagi
nation. The soldiers of the patrol fur
nish the educational features.
At first sight the bridge is a bit dis
appointing. It is a rickety wooden af
fair., and the "Silvery Rio Grande"
mentioned frequently in the popular
songs is a distinct shock. It is neither
silvery nor grand. At this season of
the year it is a mere thread of dirty
water meandering over the sandy riv
er bed. Usually a dozen naked Mexi
san children are attempting to get wet
or dirtier.
But at the other end of the bridge
ire several sinister dark-faced figures
fondling Mausers. They are leaning
against the railings, each with a two-
bushel hat pulled over their eyes. They
are the Carranzistas customs guard.
When it is time for them to go off
duty someone will awaken them.
Do them fellows ever get to snip-
in'?"
Oh, yes." The veteran casts a sharp
