John Smith t Hs Is not selfish, rather he Is a motorlg martyr, a chap witling and glad to hare exploited. In an Interesting way, his experiences for the benefit of the other 10,000,000 or more members of th motor clan (Copyright, 1025, by The Lllman Feature Service) Jt came rather as a surprise to Smith one day to discover the important part the storage battery played in" he power of he engine, lie had labored under he impression that the bat terys job ended with the cranking of the engine and that so long as it handed that job . all was wylL A battery, he came to kow, plays a vital role in the powerthat of ing of the car beyond -- starting the engine. It is the basis of the spark, and the spark is coming! to be recogniz ed as the tey to good perforother things being mance, equal. Many a battery is helping out the generator, when the sit uation should be just the reis irt need verse. The genei-atoof attention and dodh not supply sufficent current to tatce care of the load. At such times the battery is called upon to t r make up the shortage. If the battery, too, is in. bad condition there is not sufficient current for a good hot spark, and the engine lacks pep. Before Smith was ready for an explanation of the connection between battery condition it was necand r, a rough him for draw to essary picture of the usual electrical system involving storage battery, ammeter,' generator and He had a generator cut-ouvague idea of the arrangement however, and knew that when the ammeter pointer was over on the discharge side the spark was being operated by the battery. That is only half true. 1 told him. The ammeter pointa charge er may be showing and the battery may still be carrying a large portion of the load. It is entirely a matter of balance between generator amid battery output. . The ammeter comes between the two in such a way that when the balance is in favor of the generator a charge will be indicated, while if the battery is carrying the bulk of the load the meter will indicate discharge. In between there are a variety of possibilities and com engine-powe- t. eight amperes at best which meant that when you tried to take a hill 'at thirty five miles an hour, the ' battery had to help out with the. spark. Because the generator was delivering such a small output the battery was denied a normal amount of charging. When you drove fast and asked the battery to help out with the spark it was the last straw'. The spark wa3 entirely too weak to ignite The gas vapor in the cylinders promptly. With some engines two spark plugs to each using cylinder you have some idea of the importance of having a hot, prompt spark! at all times. The headlights sometimes drain off alb the generator output, making it necessary terete upon the weakened battery for the spark, and it is- during the - early stages that the engine needs a good hot spark to make it run efficiently." The trouble with all this is . that the process is automatic. One never fully appreciates whatg going on, between erator and battery until genthe car loses power or the battery begins to run down- too quickly from the way Smith has delved into some of the more interesting features of his car . since discovering this, however, it begns to look as if there was Just enough power in. his dead battery to have' shocked him in to hew lines of thought.

When it is known by those close to the automobile industry that the time is not far distant when the car with thick front body posts will be ruled off the road as unsafe because of excessively blind large spots, plans are under way to enable owners to make their old closed cars safer. One plan is to use a rear view mirror, turned perpendicularly, and attached to the inside of the front body post in such a way as to show the driver what is is on the sides, nearer to w'heel the top than to the bottom. There better leverage always is possible. It looks awkward and in the World some versons may say that one is tense in driving. But it really is not a fault.
