SHOPS AND THINGS

I TEMlNlNE war workers may believe
Il that they viii never give UP those
comfortable, square-toed, low -heeled
walking shoes to which they have be
come accustomed during the period Of
the canteen and the uniform.
But listen to the voice of the shoe
makers of the country, assembled last
week in annual convention for the pur-
pose of deciding the fate of several
million feet in the coming year.
Shoes do not depend nearly so much
on comfort as on skirts, they say, and if
there crceps into the mode those long.
clinging. tight garments which have
made some inroads this year, then
women will forget their war training
and wear shoes that arc long and tight
and clinging too
This much the shoe men will conccdc
tho modern woman will take com
Portable shoe if it is at all prescntabc
Not of her can it be said as of that
bride of cavalier days cher feet be
meath her pcttlcoat like little mice stole
in and out" Any girl of to-day would
have seized upon the full skirts as an
excuse for at least ground grippcr
shoe. SO when planning footgear for
the future it is essential that the shoe
makers keep a wary eye on the styles.
For year at least, they say, shoes
are going to continue very conservative.
This had been planned in accordance
with the strict ruling OF the War In
dustries Board. Not until next fall at
the very earliest viii fancy modes be-
gin to creep back to any extent into
the market. Neither will the price Of
shoes go down. 50 the woman who has
been accustomed to the less slightly but
more comfortable foot castings viii have
all of year to train her feet back into
the way they should go-which is,
wherever the finger of fashion points
the way.
