EDUCATE YOUR CHILD

By letting it wear Educator shoes. Why cramp
the foot in an ill-shaped shoe and destroy your
child's feet for life? Educator shoes are so built
as to let the feet grow as they should grow.
Straight bones will have no bunions or corns on
them. An arch properly shaped and grown will
have no trouble with being broken down and caus-
ing untold agony probably for life.
Educator shoes cost no more than poor ones.
Priced at $1.75 to $3.50 the pair according to size.

was added in IL hours, making the
total $1,325,0OO Monday morning
when the doors of Victory Hall
opened.
Just at 9 o'clock when all the
big noise split the city's ears the
Flying squadron, headed by d. d.
A. Outcalt, started out on a whirl-
wind roundup of the city.
The city was divided into 81
postal districts, and every corner
OF each district was to be can
vassed by the Flying Squadron and
the Minute Women.
Many Over the Top. -.
Chairman Dover announced that

Monday. Also, five out Of 10

Those explosions early, in the

due at p. m.
1t was some noise. The lid was

Speaking before a group Of
attorneys and campaign work.
ers in his headquarters ut
noon Monday, G.. Nj. Riddell,
candidate for mayor, nailed
as faIsehoOds a series OF
stories that have been circu-
lated thru the city about him
since the primaries.
| Political enemies have under
taken this underground system of
malicious SANDER, Riddell said,
both TO injure him personally and
to attempt to cripple his cam
paign.
/ Il. want to take this opportu-
nifty, once and for all, to brand as
utter falsehoods a number OF SLAM
ders that have been circulated
about me- said the candidate.
1T is one of the lowest examples
of political luminosity that | have
ever seen.
Relations to Labor
ITO try to injure me with the
working classes, a story has been
circulated to the effect that /
have been the attorney for the
Employers association.
This is a deliberate falsehood.
| do not even know who the
members of the Employers asso-
citation are.
Il have never in my life rep
resented the association, and so
far as | know, none of its indi-
vidual members.
THE report has even been
made that my sons Worked on the
waterfront during. the recent
longshoremen's strike. Another
malicious story. One of my boys
is still in grammar school, the
other is a high school boy. Meth
err of them has ever done any such
work.
Religious tissue"
AN attempt has been made to
inject a religious issue into the
campaign.
Il deplore the fact that anyone
has suggested this issue. But |
want to say briefly that ] have
no affiliation with any religious
political faction, and that l en-
phatically do not believe in mix
ing religious and municipal af-
fairs. l never have and never
will permit my religious views to
be used publicly. Allow me to
say just this-I am a member OF
the Christian church, and have
been. member of the Masonic
fraternity ror many years..
Sons i'm Public Schools
-"They say that my two sons
have been educated in private
parochial schools in Tacoma. My
boys have always attended the
public schools here, the Lowell
grammar and the Stadium high
school.
"They also hint that am q
corporation lawyer. Another
falsehood. My law practice is a
general one. l have specialized
during my life in land titles and
mortgage securities l have never
appeared in court representing a
Incorporation against any labor
union. If / have. ever done law
work for a company or corpora
ltion, it has been because l have
|been retained for the class of
work in which l specialize.

legal cases against labor unions is
also false. / have never had q
