YOU MEN WHO PAY THE
FAMILY SHOE bills

Tramping 10 miles day, Mr. H. M.
Foreman, mail carrier Of Allentown,
Pa, found that shoes with ordinary
soles last about one month. But he
says a pair of Neolin-soled shoes gave
him more than nine months OF service,
In which time he walked over 4,oo
miles
His experience shows how you may
save shoe money By providing your
family with Ne5iin-soled shoes, which
give extra wear where other shoes wear
out quickest.
You can get Neolin-soled shoes IN
any type Of shoe you want. Prices
are about the same as for shoes that
give only ordinary wear, sometimes
they are even less. II your dealer
hasn't the style you want. he can get
it for you quickly. Remember. Neolin
SoIes are created by science 70 De what
soles should be. They are available
everywhere for RESIDING as wen az on
new shoes. They are made by Inc
Goodyear Tire & Rubber Company.
