same high quality
For years people have willingly bought Pepsoden! ... rather thno save a few pennies and endanger teeth with harsh, "bargain" dentifrices. They have always preferred Pepsodent for two reasons, First, because it is a “spécial film-removing tooth -paste." It effectively removes from teeth the sticky, gummy coating that forms on them dulls and discolors them glues tooth decay germs to them. Second, because Pepsodent re- moves this film safely-without danger of injury to tooth enamel.
Today Pepsodent offers you more for your money than ever before. For it now comes to you in a new, 10% larger tube. You get more tooth paste for less money. The formula is unchanged. In every way Pepsodent is still the same high- quality product it has always been.
So take advantage of this extra saving. Get one of the new larger tubes of Pepsodent Tooth Paste

The increasingly severe 'cen- sorship is placing foreign dis tributing companies' in a dif feull position. The most com~| mon reason for a film to be re- jeeted as unsuitable for show- ing is that Jews have in sotme expacity co-operated in the pro- duction.
