WINTER FOOTWEAR
DISPLAYED AT BAKERS

With the summer business concluded
and summer styles relegated to the
past until the genius of the manufac-
turer produces new designs. the winter
display of footwear is now on exhibi-
tion at the great modern shoe house of
c. III. Baker, at SS5 Market street
Three windows, filled from end to end,
offer what is declared to be an unpre-
cedented array of 500 different winter
styles for the man, woman or child.
The seasons purchase was personally
supervised by Mr.. Baker, who has Just
returned from the east. After an ex-
tensive survey of the eastern market
and style centers, the result of his
observation has peen varied selee-
ton of heavy and light shoes suitable
to any western climate during the
winter months. Much careful atten-
ton has been given to dress shoes for
women and novelty fancy footwear.
In touring the east Mr.. Baker bought
for three stores, the local establish
ment, one at Los Angeles and another
at Portland. His judgment was there
fore the result of coast wide expert
ence in his business and born of years
of careful and successful observation.
In popularizing the Baker stocks, the
firm. has specialized on shoe selling
from $3.50 up to ST, and offering boots
for babies as low as SO cents
In the window display just put in
every possible variety of top. shoes for
winter wear Is offered. Dull kids.
gunmetal calf. patent leather and
suedes are there in any shape or style.
The popular short vamp, high heel
and round, stubby toe shape, has been
put In stock in all feathers. A feature
of the display is the Nettleton line of
mems shoes at popular prices. The
Baker store service, cash system and
office accounting have all be readjusted
and reinforced. New fixtures have been
put in to keep abreast of the business
and the sales force augmented by a
number of additional men of expert
ence.

one especially good looking shoe in
trOduced this season is a gunmetal calf
blUcher, with heavy double decker sole,
the tip and vamp neatly trimmed with
pcrforations. Another is a heavy Wis
colized tan, with heavy extension sole
and rope stitching, while the upper
part is neatly trimmed with fancy
stitching
on the whole. the styles in mems
footwear this season show conserva-
tism, with here and there a touch OF
the novel TO attract the ultra dresser.
These novelty details are expressed
chiefly by high heels, high arch and
high knob toes. The popular heels viii
run from one 10 one and three-quarter
inches. The short vamp viii be fea-
tured as strongly as ever. The vamps

edge, with the braiding also carried
about the top of the boot. The auto
boot now plays a prominent part in the
foot toggery of the up to date woman.
A trig boot of this description had a
patent vamp, kid top and a patent cuff
about the top of the boot finished with
a tassel.
Pumps will hold their own for dressy
and dancing wear during the coming
season. Corded silks and satins in the
evening shades will be greatly used
and black suedes and velvets, the latter
sometimes set off with a small gold
buckle and perhaps finish of fligree
gold about the base of the heel, are
sure to be popular. The Roman san
dal, in patent or suede feathers, with
its many straps buttoning bewitching-
ly over silken hose. it is predicted, will
be greatly favored later in the season,
as it will be particularly in harmony
with the prevailing modes in gowns.
The styles in hosiery show little
change this season. The woman of
fastidious taste clings, summer and
winter, to the fine black Isle or silk
hose, as her purse allows, indulging in
delicately embroidered ones, perhaps,
for dressy occasions. She will welcome
new idea for saving the hosiery
about the top, where the strain of the
elastics works such havoc This is a
sort of cuff that fits above the knee to
which the stocking and elastic are
fastened, which should prolong the life
of the gauziest hosiery at least a little
while beyond its usually brief span.

cally can be made. While the high toe
shoe does not Mt quite as comfortably
as the shoe with the normal box toe IL
fits nearly as well and compensates py
its stylish and natty appearance.
Several glazed kid styles are shown.
These are made in straight lasts, round
toes and freak lasts. Cloth top shoes
viii be worn a great deal less than last
fall Those that are shown are seen
with black cravanetted tops chiefly,
though there are some colored tops
also displayed. These are in colors OF
taupe, gunmetal, tan, gray and brown.
Tans, while they have not. in recent
winters been very strong, will be
shown with more prominence this sea-
son in the darker shades to harmonize
with the brown tone in suits that Will
become popular this fall.
The pony skin top shoe is one of the
extreme novelties of the season. One
of these styles noted shows the vamp
of patent calf and the finishing of a
high grade silk binding in keeping
with the pony skin topping. AS can be
imagined, this is, an unusually high
priced shoe.
For storm shoes, viscoliZed tans are
shown in abundance. These are chiefly
for country and motoring trade. The
day for storm boots in the city has evil
dently died out.
