A GREAT ECONOMY BE-
CAUSE Of EXTRA WEAR

"After a trip to Kilauea. the active
volcano of Hawaii. my NeolIn-soied
shoes were the only ones not abso-
Iutely ruined. Many in our party
wore hob-nailed boots" said Miss Jean
p. Lane of Seattle, Washington.
The sharp jagged lava OF kilauea
cuts an ordinary sole to pieces quickly.
That Neolin Soles stood the test but
emphasizes their toughness and dur
ability. These qualities are built into
them by a scientific process. Women
and men and children, too-who are
hard on shoes should buy them with
Neolin Soles. sThey come in many
STYLES, and because of the extra wear
they give, are a great economy.
And any repairman will re-sole your
worn shoes with Ne0lin Soles, which
are flexible and waterproof as well as
Ionp-wearing. They are made by The
GOODYEAR Tire & Rubber Co, Akron,

going west
The mouth Of the communication
trench had been battered In and the
trenches It Joined with were all filed
up. There were rides sticking out
Of them in several places, and
thought probably the men had been
buried alive In them. But It was too
late then, II they had been caught, %
I climbed over the blocked entrance to
the communication trench and started
back along 1t. It led up through Q sort
Of gully. and I thought 1t was Q bad
place to dig Q communication trench
in, because It gave the Turks some
thing like the side ofa hill to shoot at.

to. climb in and out Of q shell hole.
and parts Of them were blocked where
a shell had caved In the walls. In one
place I saw corpses all torn to pieces,

range and had got to this trench In
great shape. At another place I found
lots Of blood and equipment but NO
bodies, and I figured that reinforce
ments had been caught at this spot
and that they had retired. taking their
casualties with them.
The Turks still had the range, and
they were sending q shell into the
trench every once In q while, and I
was knocked down again, though the
shell was 30 far away that it Knocked
me down with force Of habit more
than anything else. I felt dizzy and
shivered lot, and kept trying to think
Of Murray or anything else but myself.
So finally got to the top Of the
little hill over which the gully ran,
and on the other side I felt almost
safe. Just down from the crest Of the
hill was one Of our artillery positions.

listen to the shells. II you kept your

am sure. So all we could do was to
lay low In the shell hole and wait for
something to happen.
Then they began using Shrapnel on
