SHOE COMPANY OPENS
A. NEW CITY BRANCH
Third Los Angeles Store Started
at 623 South Broadway.
Many Floral Pieces

Recognizing the growing Importance
of South Broadway as a business and
shopping district, the Walk Over Shoe
company, operating through the
Hughes Shoe company, of which ]. F.
Hughes is president, has opened its
third Los Angeles store at 623 South
Broadway, to be known as the Walk
over Boot Shop.
The opening yesterday found the
handsome new store crowded with
Walk over friends and patrons. Sou
venirS were distributed all day, and an
orchestra furnished music in the after
noon and evening. Great bouquets of
flowers were found in every part of
the store.
The new shop is especially handsome
in its interior decoration, although the
windows are of the latest and most
artistic construction. The style of the
New York and Paris Walk over stores
is followed closely. The furnishings
are Of Mission design, in light green.
The ceilings are beamed. A balcony
encircles the entire room. Through the
full length of the store in the center
are high backed seats of impressive
structure. The Walk over idea is evil
dent on every hand. Two of the little
Walk over men are seen at the front
on pedestals, footing the arch at each
side. The rugs are of special Walk
over weave. In the windows the Walk
over monogram design. is found again
in stained glass panels.
