COMPENSATION IS DENIED BECAUSE
 OF TECHNICALLY

Bridgeport, Dec. S.-Because of the submission of conclusive proof that five men had not been employed on the Bri- tain estate in Stamford at the time of the death of John Healy, of Stamford, Com pensation Commissioner Edward Buc- kingham yesterday dismissed claim for compensation set forth by the wife of the deceased man. The ruling on claims for compensation states that the defen- dant must have at least five persons in his employ at the time of the injury be fore compensation can be obtained. Healy was found flying beside lawn mower on the estate on June Is of this year.
 The claim was heard in Stamford a. long with nine others and Commissioner Buckingham awarded compensation for the claimants in the majority of cases.

Remember Your
Battery, Warns
One Who Knows

'.When the battery in a ear gives
the owner trouble it is usually Il
safe bet that the owner has not
given il the proper attention and
care, SAYS f. :. Stivers, local man
ager of the Western Auto Supply
Company. "Thc battery is of as
great Importance us the tires or the
engine and requires a regular in
spcction in order to keep it in per
feet condition. Negligence on the
part of the owner will always re-
suit in tn performance on the
part of the battery. When a persoa
starts on tour, he always tests the
tires and sees that they are in the
best Of shape bnt seldom gives the
battery the same consideration.
we have made ii Il point in our
electric department to remind the
md-orist of the care of his battery,
and ask him if he has tested it late
~ and advise him as TO the general
care OF this important unit.
Economy the Aim
when the Western Auto Supply
Company decided to enter the bat
terv field we gave much thought
and study to tine needs of the mot
orist. When we built the Wizard
battery and placed it on the market,
we did so with the intention of put
ting Il high quality battery of guar
anteed "mileage' within the reach
of every motorist, at an economical
price.
ITO carry out the policy of our
