One Of these is that a large number of
army orders have been placed recently
which will take a large part OF the
present supply of leather OFF the mar
ket. Last month, they say. the gov
eminent placed orders of $4,000 pairs
of army shoes, and already his month
has ordered $4,000 more,
Another reason for the high prices
is that more shoes are being bought
for beauty and style now than ever be-
fore, they say. The women particu-
iarly want pretty shoes, and shoes are
being made nicer nowadays. Novelty
shoes are playing large part in the
trade. Consequently they are bringing
high prices and because. Of the lots of
them bought the prices on other shoes
are going up in order to keep the pace.
Shoes with cloth uppers and partly
built OF canvas are going to be among
the most popular styles this summer
and fall, II is the prediction.
