In Rich's footwear are in
corporated the highest ideals
of the shoemaker's art-a
distinetiveness and originali-
ty which place them high
above the ordinary footwear.
Keep this in mind, ladies
and gentlemen, when you are
buying footwear again.
Get acquainted with the
erich standard of excel
lence," which is the fashion
standard as well.
Surely If you are particu-
lar in matters Of dress you
must want footwear which
is accepted as ''cerrect."
Surely II you are a bit
fastidious about your foot
wear you must want exelu-
siveness IN style.
You get all these in Rich's
footwear.
And you get value as well,
for such care as is used in
the making of them means
long life, and long life
means footwear economy.
Never were the new Ok
fords for ladies and gentle
men so handsome. The great
progress in shoemaking is
well exemplifed IN every
pair.
The new "dead fiat" eff
fects, with their crooked
lasts, are certainly the most
sensible fashions yet pro-
duced.
The same completeness In
wedding, reception and even
ing footwear is to be found
here-the same unmatched
varieties-the same complete
readiness to supply your
needs.
Particular attention is d.
reeted to the new ''Welling-
ton" boot and dress shoe for
army officers, as well as to
the varied line of footwear
for wear while playing at all
sports
