SHOES

Don't get excited about shoe costs.
The press notices To the effect that
"$25.00 and up" shoes are in sight Is
largely u myth. There always have
been $500 shoes and about one per
son in ten thousand would pay this
price. There always hare been $1,000
to $500 shoes, ana numbers OF people
would buy these shoes-posslbly be-
cause they matched a dress" or for
some other equally important reason.
There always have been shoes for
dress-up and street wear, retailing
from $500 10 $,J.Co for the past ten
years. Our shoes retailing ut $500 to
$4,000 before the war, now sell at
$500 to $15.C0. showing an advance in
price of $500 to $500 per pair.
We, rs leaders In our line, have
always carrlcu some OF the newest
and best shoes for those who want
the latest thing in style and, of course,
merchandise of this kind costs moro
than plain staple goods. These shoes
interest men and women who like to
wear exclusive" styles and can af-
ford 1t.
There always have been work shoes
$500 to $500 for hard wear. There
always have been boys and girls
shoes at similar prices. The shoes Of
this kind which we sold, before tho
war Mt $500 to $500 were sold during
the war at from $i.0o to 500 and are
being sold now at $3.50 to $500.
The advance in the price of our
shoes In four years averages about
$500 to $500 per pair
Now, these arc the facts about our
shoes, ana II locks different from
the fiction which Is being so largely
handed around the country. about
$4,000 shoes"
The above quoted prices show the
advances which have been necessary

Don't be talked into paying any
fancy or ridiculous prices for your
footwear. Advances there are and
advances there will bc-lcgitimatc and
necessary, but nothing like the extra
vagent statements frequently made
about "$25.00 shoes" need give you a
moments concern.
And now word OF advice. Don't
speculate in shoes. Don't buy any
more than you need. Meaning, don't
hoard shoes. as some people are doing.
If you buy pair of shoes suited to
your needs and take good care of them
and have them repaired when they
need rcpairing-keep them well half
soled and well hcclcd-you can save
lot Of money on your footwear.
This is intended to give YOU n plain
statement about shoes, in contradic-
ton to the wild and cxtravagant
rumors SO prcsistently published
throughout the country.
