A Shoe Factory in Conway.

Have you ever wondered how shoes are made? Nine cases out of ten you haven't. Now if you want to know the history of shoe is an interesting one. A visit to a shoe factory will prove this and carry you through a story as interesting as the ones that begin, "Once upon time, " and end, "They lived happily ever after.' And this is just what all of us can do, visit show factory, for tonight, to- morrow night and Monday night the great WALK-OVER shoe fac tory of Brockton, Mass, will be shown at the Lyric theatre. This has been arranged by Will son Bros. and Livingston, the progressive shoe dealers of this city and agents for the Walk Over shoes, who have secured the films which will be dis played with other interesting ones on the aforementioned evenings.
 The first view shown is a panoramic view of the many factory buildings stretching over many acres of ground. Then we enter with a guide and are first shown the interesting pro- cess of cutting the leather for the "uppers' in which many men are engaged. The next room shows the many employees stitching the uppers to the vamps; then comes the pulling of the uppers over the lasts, the lasting or shopping of the shoe, the stitching on welt, the cut ting of the out soles; so on and on to the heeling and finishing. All this is shown in detail and all the many intricate machines used in cutting, shaping and finishing the shoe. The inspect ing and packing rooms are in- teresting. After you have seen the Walk-Over shoe factory, then walk over to Wilson Bros & Livingston's and see the pro- duct i'll reality, the ideal Walk Over shoe.

Receipts Show Big Gain.

The receipts of the Conway postoffice for the quarter ending June 30, which were tabulated by Deputy Postmaster Jo Setzler to day, show a big gain over the same quarter last year. The amount received for the quarter just closed was g. 322. 20, as con- pared with SI, ,So6 45 for the quar- ter ending June 30, 1908, a gain of over 2S per cent. If the same ratio of gain is maintained through out the year to March 3I, when the grades of the postoffices are e. tablished, the receipts of the Conway office will go considerably over the SIo, ,ooo mark and entitle us to free city delivery.
 The receipts for the first two quarters of the calendar year amount to S5,437.36.
