JAPAN IS PROUD OF ASSOCIATION

WITHJtJTENTE Will Contribute Share Toward . Making Lasting Peace, Says Peace Delegate. SAX FRANCISCO, Dec. 27. Baron Nobuski Makino, head of the Japanese delegation en route to the Versailles peace conference, who arrived here Thursday from Japan, made the following formal statement upon his arrival: "The terrible -war Is over and the victors now -will make plana for and lay new, firm and permenant foundation on which civilization and progress. Ftayed for a long time, may resume their upward and onward course. Japan will Join the councils of the wiso and brave men who have won the war and will contribute her Bhare to the labor which must be furnished for the achievement of this glorious task. "Fifty yoars ago Japan entered the family of rations. Japan Is proud to associate herself with these nations In their work for humanity. Fifty years ago the mission from Japan set foot first on the soil of California and now aga'n from here a Japanese delegation will fta't on Its wy eastward, proud of the right to stand as comrade and partner amona; those, who have riven and are giving bo much for us all. "We had only a few d?vs of preparation for this journey half way around .the world, an dconseouently in the hurry of arrangements to leave business and families, we have had but little t'ms to give to the consideration of the many perplexing problems that must come before the conference at Versailles. Indeed, for the last 17 days we have been without connected

news, so it would be Jmproner, ob-1

Tlonsly, for any member of this partv to discuss questions either imminently or remotely scheduled for discussion at Versailles."

HAGERSTOWN, Ind. Dec. 27. Notwithstanding his affliction of total blindness, Ralph R. Teetor, ofjjagerstown, is filling an important position in the building of turbine motors at the plant of the New York Shipbuilding Corporation in New York. Mr. Teetor graduated from the University of Pennsylvania, at Philadelphia, in 1912, at the age of twenty-two. being the first and only blind student ever matriculated at that institution. When the United States entered into the war against Germany, Mr. Teetor was employed at the Teetor-Hart-ley Motor corporation plant here, doing consulting work and attending to technical correspondence. ' He made application for enlistment in some branch of war service, but on account of total blindness his services were not accepted. Mr. Teetor continued his efforts, however, until W. O. Morrow, manager of industrial relations at the New York shipyard, made arrangements for him to join the organization in the company's machine shop. Entering that department last September, he now holds one of the most important positions at the plant, that of testing turbine motors. His services are considered invaluable. Under his unfailing skill defective turbines are reduced to the utmost mechanical perfection. Where the average man would perform the work depending on his sight Mr. Teetor does it by a highly developed sense of touch. His labors require the highest degree of scientific knowledge and mechanical training. Regardless of his handicap, his work is performed rapidly and with great percision. He balances the high speed motors, the central rotating part of the turbines, by feeling for vibrations when they are in motion. If his fingers record the least perceptible tremor the rotor is not attuned and the attachment of weights gradually is made until the machinery moves freely in revolutions of a perfect circular moWEAKNESS REMAINS LONG AFTER Influenza Reports Show That Strength, Energy and Ambition Return Very Slowly to Grippe Patients. .

After an attack of influenza, doctors advise that nature be assisted in its building-up process by the use of a good tonic one that will not only put strength and endurance into the body, but will also help to build up and strengthen the run-down cells of the brain. One of the most highly recommended remedies to put energy into both body and brain is Bio-feren your physician knows the formula it is printed below. There's iron in Bio-feren the kind of iron that makes red blood corpuscles and creates vigor. There is lecithin also; probably the best brain invigorator known to science. Then there Is good old reliable gentian, that brings back your lagging apnetite. There are other ingredients that help to promote good health, as you can see by reading this formula, not forgetting kolo, that great agent that puts the power of endurance into weak people. Taken altogether Bio-feren ia a splendid active tonic that will greatly help any weak, run-down person to regain normal strength, energy, ambition and endurance. Bio-feren is sold by all reliable druggists and is inexpensive. For weakness after influenza patients ere advised to take two tablets after each meal and one at bed time seven a day, until health, strength and vigor are fully restored. It will not fail to help you and if for any reason you are dissatisfied with results your druggist la authorized to return your money upon request without any red tape of any kind. Note to physicians: There Is no ecret about the formula of Bioferen, it is printed on every package. Here it is: Lecithin; Calcium Olycero-phosphate: Iron Peptonate, Manganese Peptonate; Ext. Nux. Vomica; Powdered Gentian; Phenolphthaleln; Olearsln Capsicum. Kolo.

When the influenza epidemic struck the country and wiped out our warehouse and jobbers' stocks almost over night, we were faced with the problem of distributing to the stricken distircts in the quickest possible manner our daily output of VapoRub. We solved this by offering to ship direct to the retailers in these influenza districts, by parcel post prepaid, quantities of not more than three dozen VapoRub in any one shipment, and by shipping what was left from our daily production to our jobbers by express instead of freight. This was costly, but it solved the problem for the time being. Now, however, we find that these small Shipments are constantly Increasing le have received as jnany as 1,306 in m singl mail. It is becoming imposi sible for us to fill these promptly, and instead of distributing our goods more quickly, they are really slowing up the process.

We believe that we can serve yott better now by reverting to our former

policy of shipping exclusively through , the jobber and, effective immediately, no more drop shipments will be made, j While we have put on a night shift ' and have, thereby about doubled our production, we are still unable to fill our back orders and won't be able to give each Jcfcber all the VapoRub he wants. Hence, it will be necessary for the Jobbers to continue distributing VapoRub in small lots only. But we will be able to furnish each jobber at least twice the quantity of Vapo Rub that he purchased for the corresponding month last year, so there should not be any difficulty in your getting your pro rata share. We feel that the public appreciates the service that the retail and wholesale drug trade have rendered the country in this time of stress. We wish to express to both branches of the trade our thanks for the kind cooperation extended us in our efforts

to meet this emergency.

tion. To the ordinary engineer depending on his sight this would be ascertained by the brake test, and the gauges used in this connection, but the wonderfully sensitive fingers of

Mr. Teetor perform the same function even better than the most accurate instrument. Mr. Teetor is the son of John H. Teetor, who until recently was president of the Teetor-Hartley Motor corporation plant of Hagerstown. He was born In this city. At the age of five years-he met with an accident that deprived him of his sight. Mr. Teetor received his-' early education in the Hagerstown public schools, and at eighteen graduated from the high school. He then entered the engineering school at the University of Pennsylvania, receiving at the end of the four years' course the degree of bachelor of science and that of mechanical engineer. When Mr. Teetor made application to enroll as a student his admission was discouraged by the faculty, each member expressing unreservedly his opinion that Teetor could not make the proper credits. It finally was decided that he should be admitted on trial. To the surprise of the faculty he led his class. His books were those prescribed for the course and by receiving instruction outside of school he mastered the subject matter, and made class recitation with the other students. Equally determined was -Mr. Teet or's work in the machine shop, maintained by the school as a part of the curriculum. He designed and made his own tools, which were accurate to the one-thousandth part of an inch.

German Farmer Council Proposed by Agriculturists (By Associated Pres) COPENHAGEN, Dec. 27.
