Dry Battery

Hello, I have 1948 mens Raleigh Superbe Dawn Tourist I believe. The dry battery is gone, but all the wiring and lights are still on the bike. How do I bypass the dry battery holder, do I disconnect the two wires that are attached to the dry battery cover, and connect them to see if I can generate power?
Thanks for any advice, I am totally a newbie when it comes to this. Years ago, a family I worked for asked me to take two old bikes to our town dump to get rid of. I thought at the time the bikes looked cool, and took them home and saved them. Just recently I bought out the men's bike with the idea of making it ridable. The other bike is identical to the mens bike but is a womens. Both bikes are in very good shape, and from all appearances are in original condition. Again, thank you for reading this. It is my first post, but as I dive into the project will most likely not be my last post.
