A SANITARY SHOP To Our Friends and Patrons: We desire to announce that the Parke Barber Shop has recently been equipped with the very latest and most up to date sanitary furnishings. We have recently purchased and plac ed in use in the shop the Sanitary Sterilizer, whereby all the tools in use in the shop are kept at all times free from any disease that might other wise be transmitted by the razors, shears, combs, brushes, or other tools or equipments. In the shops of the larger cities the Sanitary Sterilizer has been found ne cessary to protect patrons from the possibility of Barber's Itch and other diseases of the skin, which are easily transmitted by the razor. We believe Vale's citizens are just as much entit led to this protection as the people of the large cities, and have installed the equipment, and we will continue to add to our shoo the latest and the best. You are invited to call and examine the Sanitary Sterilizer. We want your approval. flfours to please, THE PARKE BARBER SnOP, Vale, Ore.
