the feet source of complaint.
The most civilized portions of the world have
developed tenderness of the feet which has be-
tradition in the circles which have made
the greatest progress. People who wear pointed
shoes compelled to suffer the same agonies
that would come If their toes bound together
with adhesive tape and they were compelled to
walk about thus conditioned. Others who wear
shoes too small have swelling of the feet when
they take off their shoes. Shoes too large produce
corns. just do small shoes.

the fashions with good intent equip themselves
with Frenchheele shoes. which raise the heels

1t was from this queer style that the high heel
developed, only in those days the heel was sever
al inches higher than those now worn.
OF course, the smallest shoes of all are worn by
Chinese women. Some of these only two
inches long. The present empress is trying to
break up the cruel custom of misshapening the
feet. Probably in another generation these d.
minutive shoes will be curiosity. but up to a
few years ago, Chinese girl whose feet were
four inches long found it difficult proposition to
get married. while the parents of the girl with the
twoinch foot was overrun with applicants. AS
a compensation to these Chinese women for the
tortures they underwent during the time their
feet were being matreated they took great pride
in embroidering beautiful designs upon their
shoes. Very few shoes for women are on sale
in China, as nearly all women make their own.

Just why shoes for poor persons came into
vogue is question that remains unanswered.
They originated in the Grecan sandal and have

the heavy leather affair we all know. Yet an

days has natural sole upon her foot from

when man only a wild beast of the jungle,

viously 1t would be quite nuisance to stoop down
and unace your shoes every time you called on a
friend or went to church. So the Asiatcs wear
shoes that be kicked OF easily as can

Some are made with straw soles and sell for
about ten cents pair; others made Of wood ;
while still others made of leather of various
kinds. When shoes are reduced to such simple

buys the ready-made shoes Of America and in some
cases even more SO. Another scheme is to use a

We have been wearing practically the same kind
Of shoes for 80 many years that we are liable to
forget that they varied in styles radically as
women's hats do now. During the time OF Edward
~. in England, the parliament had to pass law
regulating the length of shoes. Some Of them
were made 30 long to be dangerous. Princes
sometimes wore them even two feet In length
with the ends stuffed out with straw. One worthy
Scotch king doubled his back and attached the
points to his belt But Of course that style was in
vogue before the days Of trolley cars.
Then, in the next generation when the law pre-
vented long pointed shoes. they began to broaden
and this continued until they had to pass another
law to stop the broadening. 1t was at about this

MAKES CLEAR DISTINCTION
BETWEEN VICE AND CRIME

LOS ANGELES, Nov. 12.-[Editor
Herald. THAT vices can be made
crimes by that elastic thing known as
the law is very true, and Mr.. Churchill,
looking from legal standpoint, GER
tainly sees in prostitution a crime"
But our old friend Noah Webster
drew a dividing line between the two,
and, taken in their natural states, vice
and crime are distinct and separate.
Crime, in its true meaning, is the in
vasion of other peoples rights, and the
most conspicuous and offensive crimes
are murder, robbery, assault, arson,
etc.
Prostitution being a vice no one takes
very seriously, the law that is made
to suppress 1t and our lawmakers and
the defenders of such laws violate them
with no sense of wrong doing, though
they would hesitate long before COM
hitting a real crime, such as injury
to some person or property.
Gluttony could be made a crime by
the law, but in and of itself it would
never be aught but a vice. and this is
true of prostitution with all the laws
that have been piled upon 1t since the
days of Rahab.
II it is a crime, as Mr.. Churchill as
sertg, and he needs protection from it
being part of "the community'-will
he please inform us how he is liable to
be injured and what protection he
needs from the vices of other people?
Personally 1 do not know that there
is any prostitution in this city, and
unless / seek its abode and willingly
penetrate the haunts of that vice, in
jury is too remote to cause fear and
trembling to me or necessitate the gerry
Ices of a policeman.

LAW oPPREssEs ONLY THOSE
ECONOMICALLY LACKING

LOS ANGELES, Nov. 14.-[Editor
Herald: How these controversies drag
on without disclosing the real eluci-
dating points is a marvel. For exam
pie, in all this talk pro and con about
possible oppression under co-opera-
tive system except for a passing hint
by Val Stone some time ago, and a
similar brief glance in his letter of No
vember II, there is no adequate cogni-
zance taken by anyone of the fact
that it is in economic lack that all
oppression has it's roots. Even in our
present miserable, chaotic regime of
chicane and oppression it is only the
poor who feel the iron hand. 1t is all
silk glove to the man who is well~to-
do. He hardly needs to know there is
any law.
Now If a little concession by the in
dividual ego to the social spirit and the
social need will rescue us from the
poverty that brings us subject to the
laws oppression--as Mr.. Stone perth
nently asks-Is it not worth while, anu
we'll worth while?
With EVERYBODY having voice,
and time and means to use It, why
should we--HOW COULD WE-wrong
ourselves? Z. A. W4Cho
