AN IMPORTANT
FACTOR N CUTTING
SHOE EXPENSE

"Many months Of comfort at littls
expense" is the way Charles A. Pear.
son Of San Diego. California, sums ur
his experience with Neolin Soles. MIR
Pearson had two pairs OF shoes re.
soled with Neolin Soles. and aftei
wearing them for twenty months
writes Il will have TO get new shoes
sometime. but so far as the soles are
concerned, that time seems as faf
distant as when they were new"
This is typical of the experience
millions are having with Neolin SoIes.
Created By Science to be durable,
flexible and waterproof. these soles
are an important factor in cutting
shoe expense. You can get them on
new shoes for the whole family. and
for re-soling. They are made by The
Goodyear Tire & Rubber Co., Akron,
Ohio. who also make Wingfoot Heels
guaranteed to outwear all other heels.
