The Million Dollar
Valet Auto Strop Razor demonstrates
the necessity of stropping before each
By | e v W
Because it solves the problem of men with stub
born beards, the new Valet Auto Strop Razor is
taxing our factories’ capacity to meet America’s
demand.
Everywhere wise men are turning to the new
Valet Auto Strop Razor because it is teaching them
the vital importance of never shaving with a blade
that has not been properly stropped.
All barbers know that until it is nro?ped the cut
ma' every blade is a row of tiny needle
scrape and tear the skin. Stropping
smooths them out.
With the automatic self-stropping device of the
Valet Auto Strop Razor you can do this in a few
seconds. And the new model offers you many other
modern features exclusive in this razor. It is the
result of 2101“" of experiment and the ex
‘/' penditure of a million dollars.

VETERAN RELIEF IS
BIG RED CROSS TASK
Service to Di;_b_l;d-in Ten Years
Since Armistice Has Cost
965,800,000.
In this year of the tenth anniversary
of the Armistice, which ended the
world war, the American Red Cross
still finds a great army of disabled
and sick veterans requiring assistance,
and whose families also must be alded,
aceording to a statement by James L.
Fieser, vice chairman in charge of do
mestic operations of the Red Cross at
Washington, In the ten years since
November 11, 1918, the Red Cross has
expended approximately $65,800,000
in veteran rellef work, Mr, Fieser said.
There is a daily average of 25,600
disabled and sick world war veterans
enrolled in Veterans' Bureau and other
government hospitals which care for
these men and women, and about the
same annual average of veterans suc
cumbing to wounds and illness, for
whose dependents the Red Cross is
pledged to give required assistance,
Mr, Fieser pointed out.
In addition, the Red Cross, under its
charter granted by Congress, has a
definite duty towards service men of
the regular establishment of Army,
Navy anu Marine Corps, and follows
them to all foreign ports or duty. The
expenditure in this work for the year
ending June 30, 1928, was $307,458, the
annual report states.
“Upon the Red Cross rests the sa
cred obligation of carrying on relief
work for the disabled service and ex
service men and women and their de
pendeats, taking up the work where
the Government is not able to carry
on,” Mr. Fleser sald. “The Red Cross
has 349 trained workers, serving either
full or part time in the field, in liaison
work. csmne znd hasairala. wos wra
aiways 1n personat contact with EE;
sick and disabled in hospitals, with
the men in the regular Army, Navy
and Marine Corps, and who stand ever,
ready to serve veterans back in civil
life, 'who need the help of a friendly
agency to aid in establishing theis
rights and claims. .
“To maintain this staff and to supe
port the practical services they renme
der, the Red Cross made expenditure
of $1,169,795 for the year ending June
30, 1928. In addition 2,700 Red Cross
Chapters, in that number of communf«
ties, who have established special
work for the disabled service and ex
service people, expended during the
past year $1,732,000.” 4

Both the razor and the blades have been distinctly
bettered. Made of the costliest steel, treated by the
exclusive Valetite process, Valet blades have a per~
sect edge. The self-stropping feature keeps them so.

surface of these keener blades. Instantly inserted or
removed by pressing a button. Locked in a firm non
flexible grip, they put blade vibration and razor
pull out of the picture for good. No need to remove
the blade to strop and clean it.
Try this new Million Dollar Razor. You'll quickly
learn to like it. And once you know its soothing
shaves md friendly angle, you'll stick to it for life.

number of death claims alone of vets
erans which are handled through the
War Service at national headquarters
of the Red Cross, has increased from
12,010 in 1928-24 to 24,602 in 1927-28.
During the year ending June 30, 1928,
War Service agsisted Chapters in ad-
Justing Government claims amounting,
in benefits to veterans or their d¢pen
dents, to $693,203.42 in awards for
compensation, insurance, adjusted
compensation, burial expenses, ete. In
addition to this amount, which repre
sented lump sum payments, awards
were obtained for $183,389 in monthly
installments of insurance and compens
sation and in quarterly adjusted coms
pens.tion payments.
Mr, Fieser points out that Red Cross
Roll Call comes once each year, and
that it is the only occasion upon
which the Red Cross asks for funds
with which to carry on its activities,
of which War Service is one, From
Armistice Day to Thanksgiving Day
the American people are asked to sup
port this work through their Red
Cross memberships.

Labor Head Asks
Nation’s Workers to
Support Red Cross
William Green, president of the
American Federation of Labor, in
Washington, calls upon the workers
of the nation to support the twelfth
annual roll call of the American
Red Cross, November 11-29, in the
following statement:
“Through the American Red
Cross we find expression for some
of our noblest ideals. It is an ef
foective instrument for magnitying
many times our personal service
to humanity.
“In the face of great disasters,
when the injured and homeless run
into the thousands, there is little
we can do individually. Consolidat
ing our strength througl member
ship in this great orgauization, our
opportunity for service is unlim
ited. 4
We must not forget that every
day is a day of disaster to thou
sands. Into homes where dlsaster
strikes your Red Cross goes in your
name to be friend and ccunselor to
those upon whom misfortune has
laid her heavy hand.
“As President of the American
Federation of Labor, I hope and
feel confident that the workers ot
the nation will respond to the Red
Cross Roll Call and have a part in
‘thig organization’s great work.”
(Signed)
