OVER hunds HM-F-CLERN 3 If you could make sure all hands get really clean before your men leave the plant your rate of hand in fection would be reduced! Can this be done? Is there any safe, simple way to remove embedded grime and grease from minor abrasions on workers' hands? "Yes," say scores of industrial plants, "Lava Soap gets all the dirt , . . every time." Lava is made specially by Procter 8s Gamble to clean grimy hands quickly and safely. It combines cleansing in its two elemental forms . . . dissolving plus scouring. Lava's lather dissolves the surface dirt. Its finely pow dered pumice rubs out the ground-in dirt. Its glycerine and soothing oils protect the skin. Lava costs no more than ordinary soap... lasts much longer. Works well even in cold, hard water. LAVA SOAP Gets Dirt Fast..

CARNEGIE-ILLINOIS STEEL CORPORATION PITTSBURGH PENNSYLVANIA NATIONAL SAFETY NEWS 5 I AM THE CAR OF 1936 I have been designed to give you greater pleasure and greater safety. The first is accomplished bv brilliant new styling and performance that will thrill you to your finger tips. The second results from better braking, better bodies and an almost universal use of Safety Glass All-Around. There is hardly a manufacturer who does not provide it as standard equipment. Nothing in automotive history indicates more clearly the manufacturer's willing ness to give the public what it wants than the remarkable rapidity with which Safety Glass All-Around has been made so readily and easily available. And there has seldom, if ever, been such general acceptance of an automotive product as that now accorded the Safety Glass made by Libbev-Owens. Ford. Buick, Cadillac, Graham, LaSalle, Oldsmobile and Pontiac use L-O.F Safety Glass All-Around in all models; Chevrolet uses it for all Safety Glass requirements; Auburn, Cord, Lincoln, Packard, Reo, Studebaker and Willvs use it for a large part of their requirements. Such significant recognition of one Safety Glass can imply but one thing... that it is unquestionably a superior product. Libbev-Owens-Ford Glass Company, Toledo. O.
