and searching out the law. His
temperament was such that he was
easily approached and his man

ate that he was soon marked as a
young lawyer of brilliance and an
eloquent advocate before the court.
His character was above reproaen

Lt. Queen righted his ship and
plowed his way across the Mediter

of the enemy." said Mr. Byers.
He was reported missing in line

his quiet, noble character be an
incentive to all Ih-se who may read
this and who will come upon the
scene of action as the years go by,
and we shall ever bear in mind his
heroic character, his love of coun
try, his devotion to duty, and may
the remaining youth of this land
strive to emulate his nobility of
character.

Longer-Life
Car Batteries
Being Produced
TOLEDO. Ohio, The Auto-Lite
Battery Corp. disclosed that its
recently announced longer life au
tomobile battery now is in produc
tion in the company's six plants.
The longer life is expected to
result from the design that gives
Hie battery a reserve of three times
more water than the conventional
type. The additional liquid capac
ity makes it necessary to refill the
battery only about three times a
year, lt also lowers the average
strength of the acid, Auto-Lite
engineers assert, tending to give
the battery longer life without re
. hieing its electrical capacity.
ihc battery is slightly higher,
but otherwise of the same over
all dimension as the conventional
ty pe.
A il 1 1 ion., I liquid space was obtain
ed through lowering the bridges
at the bottom of the battery. '1 he
plales, increased fioni l. to 17 in
each cell wilh fibre-glass insula
tion, thus sit lower in the contain
er. Previously deep wells were need
ed a( the bottom to collect the
lead shed from the plates. Use of
fibre-glass insulation, the engineers
declare, prevents excessive shed
ding, making deep wells unneces
