According to information recetved dt police headquarters, Hyman Schia- fer, ‘wanted by the authorities for several weeks on a warrant charging the obtaining. of goods under false rretenses and as a material witness in nroceedlngu against Harry ' Gold- berg, former shipping clerk fob Gor- don Brothers, is expected to return today, or tomorrow, and give himself up through Judge W: J. Malone of Bristol, his counsel. Goldberg, whose cuse was continued several times be- czuse of Schlafer’s. non-appearance, was.recently held for trial in superior court. J Schiafer, until his disappearance a peddler living at 219 North street, left for parts unknown to the authorities soon after, according to testimony, he gave information to Gordon Brothers that resulted in the arrest of Gold- berg and, ultimately, the issuance of a warrant for himself. Since his disappearance, the authorities .have unsuccessfully sought to locate him. A Tip for Owners of New Cars. The first thing that the owner of a new automobile should do is to go to the battery service ‘station and let the battery expert test his battery, accord- ing to Albert J. Simmons, the local Willard expert. He gives the follow- ing reasons for this. “The battery really commences to wear the instant that it is assembled. ' As long as the plates are in contact with the electrolyte, the battery is slowly discharging itself. “If, therefore, an automobile is a .long time in transit from the manu- facturer to the dealer and then ‘is a long time in the hands of the dealer, it is entirely possible that the battery may have become considerably | discharged. This slow discharge 1} perfectly natural. Before. the car owner puts it to hard usage, he should have it fully charged. If this is once done, the generator should keep it in that condition. “It is to prevent the motorist start- ing out with a half charged battery when he expects a fully charged one that we advise all new car owners to have their batteries tested immedi- ately. “This step is really more than just |’ seeing that the motorist gets the full value for the money spent on his maching. It is resfly %the first step in assuring him a long and useful life of service from his battery, for it the battery starts its life fully charged and then is closely watched by the owner during the first three months of “{ts: life, tife odds are a thousand to one that it will give little trouble. If, on the other hand, it goes into commission half charged, this ‘condition ‘gets worse and worse until finally the battery is thoroughly starved and the owner thoroughily disgruntle ‘This starved condition is particulatly bad, for no amount of |clurxln¢ at the service station will put the battery back in the excellent |eondluon hp which it was at the I start.”—Advt. 1 “Bulldmg a Kingdom” By OWEN R.
