THE INDIANAPOLIS TIMES

JOHN BAU DEAD; HEAD OF GLASS INDUSTRY HERE Began Work at 9, Became Leader in His Field of Endeavor. D?ath claimed a pioneer in the glass industry when John Rau. 72, vice president and founder of the Fairmount Glass Works, passed suddenly at his home, 1504 Park Ave., at 9:45 Monday night. Heart disease, with which Mr. Rau had been troubled for several years, caused his death. He returned a week ago from a vacation with his wife and other members of his family at Lake Wawasee. Monday, he was ordered to bed by his physician. Dr. O. S. Jaquith. Mr. Rau retired from the presidency of the glass works three years ago, but since had been an active vice president. His son, John H. Rau, Jr., succeeded him as president. Began Work at 9 Mr. Rau began work in a Louisville (Ky.) glass foundry at the age of 9, confining there until he was 18. By night work and consistent effort he was able to surmount the deficiencies of his early education. Following employment in a Milwauflee glass factory from 1884 to 1885, Mr. Rau became manager of anew plant in Golden. Colo., where he remained for two years. A year in a Massillon (Ohio) glass works, as glass blower, helped him to gain more practical experience. In 1889, Mr. Rau formed a partnership with three other men and established the glass plant at Fairmount. Coming to Indianapolis in 1904, he and several associates built a large bottle manufacturing plant. Held Many Patents Mr. Rau, besides being identified with the executive angle of the glass business, held almost a score of patents, involving many phases of glass making. He built the first continuous tank ever used in the United States. The value of this experiment was demonstrated when, six years later, other glass- men began to follow his example. Many of the machines used in the Fairmount plant are Mr. Rau’s inventions. His factory was the first to turn out machine-made bottles of five-gallon capacity. Mr. Rau was president of the One-Piece Bi-Focal Lens Company and of the Twin-Sight Optical Company for a number of years, and at various times during his connection with the glass industry held almost every office in the Glass Blowers Union. He was a member of the Indianapolis Athletic Club. Mr. Rau was married to Miss Alice Marsh. Louisville, in 1883. Mrs. Rau and three children survive him. They are: Charles D. Rau, 4653 Carrollton Ave.; John H. Rau Jr.: 5207 N. New Jersey St., and Mrs. Kenneth K. Woollir.g, 2135 N. Meridian St. Funeral arrangements have not been completed. Court Dedication Set By Times Special SULLIVAN, Sept. 11—Sullivan County’s new courthouse will be officially dedicated Sept. 15, it has been announced here.

BRITAIN DETAILS STANDMONARMS Each State Must Judge r Self, League Told. By United Press GENEVA, Sept. 11.—Britain’s attitude toward disarmament was discussed before the League of Nations assembly today by Lord Cushendun, British delegate. He defended the Franco-British efforts to reach a naval agreement, as Aristide Briand did in behalf of France Monday. “Disarmament is the predominating question of the present assembly,” Lord Cushendun said. “Its importance cannot be overestimated. I appreciate the disappointment of Chancellor Mueller of Germany and others at the slow progress made, but I fear Herr Mueller doesn't appreciate the difficulties facing the preparatory disarmament commission. “Resolutions can not produce disarmament. Only work along practical lines can do that. Each state has a right to judge for itself the level of armaments necessary for its security.” • A standard tennis court is thirtysix feet wide.

Old Folks Say Doctor Caldwell was Right

The basis of treating sickness has not changed since Dr. Caldwell left Medical College in 1875, nor since he placed on the market the laxative prescription he had used in his practice, known to druggists and the public since 1892, as Dr. Caldwell’s Syrup Pepsin. Then, the treatment of constipation, biliousness, headaches, mental depression, indigestion, sour stomach and other indispositions that result from constipation was entirely by means of simple vegetable laxatives, herbs and roots. These are still the basis of Dr. Caldwell’s Syrup Pepsin, which is a combination of senna and other mild laxative herbs, with pepsin. The simpler the remedy for constipation, the safer for the child and for you, and the better for the general health of all. And as you can get results In a mild and safe way by using Dr. Caldwell’s Syrup Pepsin, why take chances with strong drugs? A bottle of Dr. Caldwell’s Syrup Pepsin will last a family several months, and all can use it. It is good for the baby because pleasant to the taste, gentle in action, and free from narcotics. In proper dose, given in the directions, it is equally effective at all ages. Elderly people will find it especially ideal. All drug stores have the generous bottles. We would be glad to have you prove at our expense how much Dr. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin can mean to you and yours. Just write your name and address in the special
