A TIP FOR OWNERS
OF NEW CARS

The first thing that the owner Of n
new automobile should do is 70 90 to
THE battery service station and let the
battery expert test his battery. accord
inE to Fred Dempsey, the local willard
expert He gives the following 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
long time in transit from the manufac-
turer and then is long time In the
hands of the dealer it is entirely pos
sible that the battery may have become
considerably discharged. This slow dis
charge is perfectly natural Before the
car owner puts it to hard usage he
should have it fully charged. II this is
once done the generator should keep it
in that condition.
1T 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 fun
value for the money spent on his ma
chine 1t is really the first step in as
surfing him a long and useful life Of
service from his battery for if the bat
terry starts its life fully charged and
then Is closely watched by the owner
during the first three months of its life.
the odds are thousand to one that it
will give little trouble If. on the other
hand it goe into commission half
charged. this condition gets worse and
worse until finally the battery is thor
oughly starved and the owner thor
oughly discounted. This starved con
dition is particularly bad for no amount
Of charging alt the service station will
put the battery back in the excellent
condition in which it was at the start

difficult to overtake a ship bent on
eluding capture in the Atlantic. Anxiety
is expressed over the fate OF cargoes OF
grain and meat from Argentine and
steel from the United States. II is esti-
mated that the loss of such cargoes may
be severely felt coming on top OF the
depredations of tile submarines. The
raider is assumed TO be identical with
the vessel reported on December 4. but
