That is why Prest-O-Lite, when it set out to make the Automobile Battery better, began with the plates. Always a maker of a better plate, it turned its scientific skill and re- search to improving it and produced Prest-O-Lite Plates—the long-lasting Plate. Here is a battery plate as different from ordinary plates as gold is from gilt. Unusual hardness combined with a peculiar porosity gives it unrivaled durability. This ezptains its ready reserve power in biting zero .v,etpttw.e and its great non -buckling strength that re- sists overheating in summer. That is why the Prest-O-Lite Bat- tery outlives an ordinary battery and 1 why it is the best all-weather battery. Drive around to the local Prest-O- Lite Service Station and ask about $ Prem -a -Lite for your car. Prost -O -Lite Batteries are Canadian thru and thra. T. F.
