It Takes a
Good Man to
Fix Batteries
Almost any man will ad-
mit that he could run a
newspaper or teach school
or preach a fair sermon—
but he'd rather leave his
battery repairing to some-
body who knows how to
do the job!
That's us!
We've repaired all kinds
—we've been up against
all sorts of troubles. As a
result we know batteries
