Women and Shoes
By G. O. WoId

When the average woman buys shoes she leaves her good, common sense and Judgment out on the sidewalk, en- ters the shoe store with a prayer to the god of chance that he will perform a miracle that she may find a comfort able and fashionable shoe. At the present time that is impossible, so she buys the fashionable shoe regardless of health and comfort.
 The result is corns, bunions, ingrown toe nails. over tapping toes, crooked toes, broken down arches, pain and aches through the foot and leg to such an extent that it is often mistaken for rheumatic pains: in short if present styles of shoes continue much longer, walking will be a lost art as it must be en exceedingly painful performance to try walking with the high-heeled | narrow-tOed fancy colored contrap- ton mis- named a shoe
 When 1 was a little boy I remember we took up collection in the churches in order to keep missionaries in China and one of the horrible examples | held up to us was that the Chinese made their girl babies wear wooden shoes of a peculiar shape and size in order that they might acquire the proper style feet and the proper wad- dle instead of walk.
 Well, the Chinese have nothing on us when it comes to crippling their women's feet. This is not meant as a joke.
 It is hard to believe that an intelli- gent woman with so many admirable qualities and capable of so much work for the uplifting of the human race that our American woman has shown seem to be the absolute slaves of fashions decree.
 | Practically all foot troubles are caused by improper shoes. and yet our women not only buy them when they know it will cripple their feet but they pay at least s50O,000,00O per year more for their high topped fancy colored shoes than plain black or tan shoes would cost. And it gives the shoe manufacturers an excuse to boos
 prices out of sight on fancy shoes be- cause they know the weakness of wo- men to buy anthing. fashionable re- gardless of whether it is best; it is sufficient for her that she can boast oi
 having paid more for her shoes thar i Mrs. Smith or Mrs. Brown, and furth-
 ermore she dare not wear a comfort able shoe for fear Mrs. Social Climber may turn up her little pug nose at hel
 shoes. She does not seem to know

ous message from Duncan asking her to come to the dance hall where she will learn the identity of the man who killed Jaffray. He places her where she can overhear Dick Randall talking to an eastern broker, arranging to sell him mine which had been located by Jaffray and Dick together. Ava is easily convinced that Dick killed Jaf- fray for his share of the mine Ava confronts Dick and denounces him as the murderer. Randall meets her eye without flinching, and tells her that if she is sure she has the right man, to shoot. Wavering before his steady glance, she lowers her gun.
 Dick prepares to cross Death Valley to record his mining claim. Believing that he is trying to escape the conse- quences of his crime Ava punctures his canteens of water Later Duncan asks Ava to marry him. Tiger Lil' overhears the conversation, and tells Ava that Duncan murdered Donald Jaffray. Jaffray at the time of his death, was in love with her, she says Ava now realizes that Randall has al- lowed himself to be adjudged guilty rather than let her know Donald Jaf- fray's unworthiness. She tells "TigeI Lir' what she has done, and the wo- man reveals the fact that Duncan had poisoned the water in RandalFs can- teens. Fearful that he may already have succumbed to thirst and drunk some of the water, Ava leaps upoT her horse and starts after him.
 After a ride of break-neck speed she reaches Randall She faints be- fore she can tell him the water is pois- Oned. To revive her, he is holding 2 cup of the water to her lips, when com ing to consciousness she hurls the cuI from her, telling him the truth. As tht sunset baths Ava and Dick in it's ra- diance all misunderstanding are ex. plained, and the steadfast hearts ar,
 united. Back in the dance hall a Magnet, Lii, the woman Duncan hai tried to discard, kills her faithles lover. Alva's revenge has come in al unexpected manner.

ELkS

A hip. hip hurrah musical comedy full of pep and patriotic humor is Forward. March" which comes to the Elks theater Monday, March 4.
 Replete with comedy situations, it tells of the trials and difficulties of a man who lied to his wife about his rating in the army and what happend to him, is the basis of what plot the comedy contains.
 Constructed for laughing purposes principally, it has a stirring note and an occasional touch of seriousness which makes it different from the us- ual girly, girly show.
 Pretty women are announced in pro- fusion, youth and beauty seeming to be the watchword of the producer who selected the chorus while the costumes arc said to be extremely colorful and from the plates of New York's cleverest designers
 The company has some very invit- ing names particularly Frances Young and Lew Dunbar in whose hands lie the fun making, ably supported by Earle Caldwell, James Edwards and Leonard Brisbane. Among the women folk Eunice Gilman. whose remark able rise from obscurity was the talk Of the profession when she sprang from the chorus to prima donna over night ny the simple method of outsinging the leading lady, causing aforesaid l.. L. to ask for Miss Gilman's dismissal or request the management to accept her

resignation. The latter went into ef- feet and little Eunice inherited the position. Her voice is said to possess such remarkable quality as to be worthy of the best grand opera.
 Charming Margery Shaw, the dainty engenue, will also be seen and heard to advantage while surprise package is promised in the Jazz Queen, Pearl Lowree. Eccentric Dorothy Waters is afforded an opportunity to comedy while some of the latest song hits and novelties are interpolated.

bit of logic and mental exertion.
 Correct dancing is a social obliga- ton because, unless one is afflicted with the gout or minus a limb, there is no excuse for not being able to dance well. The fat man is usually a good dancer because he has to stand up straight and carry his own weight. whereas winsome miss of 90 pounds may be very heavy to dance with because she is affecting a pose of some kind which throws half of her weight on her partner left arm.
