WHILE YOU SAVING,
SAVE SHOES.

SAVE SHOES.
Proper care of shoes will not only do
much to extend their life, but will also
improve their appearance.
Keep the heels squared. A turnover
heel forces the counter out of shape
and often breaks it.
Avoid getting leather wet, but when
wet and muddy, gently wipe Off the
mud instead Of letting it dry; while the
leather is still wet, rub in little warm
oil. The shoe should dry slowly. DO
not place it in hot oven or on hot
stove. as intense heat and cold are bad
for leather, and especially the changes

SPLENDID EVENT
WAS The RECEPTION
SOCIAL SIDE OF THE DISTRICT
HIGH SCHOOL MEET WAS
MOST ENJOYABLE.

The browning event of the social
side of the high school meet was
the large reception rendered the Wis
ltors and the people of the city by
the faculty and high school pupils
of the Dawson public school at the
music studio on Friday afternoon
from 2:30 to $3.50 o'clock.
An elaborate arrangement of the
national cOlors gave an appropriate
setting for the delightfully."- informal
affair. Quantities of red rambler
roses in baskets suspended about the
rostrum and from the chandeliers
gave brilliant tone to the color
scheme of red, white and blue. The
patriotic colors were very pleasingly
displayed at the entrance to the build
ing and throughout the lower floor
Misses Willis, Fielder, Black and
Garrett stood at the foot of the
stairs and as the guests arrived their
names were written on a card and
pinned to their sleeves, thus avoiding
the stiffness of a formal introduce
ton. Receiving at the head of the
stairs were four other teachers, Miss
es Self, Wood, Irwin and Ham. The
callers were shown to the receiving
line by Misses Saville and Tweedy
With Superintendent Dukes, Presi-
dent c. M. Hale and Miss Bush stood
the trustees of the Dawson school and
their wives and the heads of the six
patriotic organizations of the city
Miss Sharp led the way to the punch
bowl, where the girls of the gradual
ing class served the delicious bever-
age. They were charming in white
frocks, relieved by the school colors
Of red and black. Miss Remson
greeted the visitors as they were
leaving the reception room by an
other exit. Bright selections from an
Edison were enjoyed all during the
hours when throngs Of callers filled
the apartments open to the public,
patriotic airs being the favorite num-
bers. This delightful way of bringing
together the large number of visitors
and the people of Dawson was thor
oughly appreciated by every one who
had the privilege of this social hour.
