tickle WEATHER
man At WORK
Temperature Takes Slide of
Al Degrees Within Few
Hours
SO YESTERDAY,
As THIS MORNING

II there be any doubling Thomas
who still regards May as the balmy
month of the year, let him glance at
the appended figures recorded by
the official thermometer maintained
by Uncle Sam at the Porter reser-
voir.
Yesterday for example the fickle
mercury climbed to Sc. That was
some time before $50 o'clock in the
afternoon. Some time last night
the same tickle mercury hit the to-
boggan for a nifty Al degree slide,
getting down to a minimum temper
ature of 45.
Talk about relativityi Einstein's
theory may be all to the good when
applied to ether and things ETHEREAL;
but even a blood-sweating behemoth
would gasp at the ups and downs of
weather in this vicinity.
It's a trite saying that while fig
ures won't lie, liars will figure. But
the thermometer out at Porter reser-
voir is a pretty. active instrument as
Charlie" Simmons, who holds down
the post of chief weather observer
for Wilmington, will tell the world.
Therefore, its fluctuations, or rather
its gyrations, are something really
worth taking seriously-like a dose
OF bad tasting medicine, for COM
parison.
To obtain a correct line on the ac-
tions of that bit of mercury in a
vacuum tube out at the reservoir
one wants to go back to Sunday and
then come forward. Every day the
temperature is noted at the hours OF
a. m, 1.30 p. m. and p. m. Their
the recording part of the machine
does its own work, and the maxi
mum and minimum temperature es
are had. The record since last Sun
day stands thuswise:

THE HIGH COST OF
SHOES GETS WALLOP

''Ten cents to twenty-five cents a
pair is enough profit for any maker of
work shoes" said Geo. r. Harsh, head
of the Harsh & Chapline Shoe Co, of
Milwaukee, makers of the famous Lion
Brand Work Shoes for men and Lion
Brand Everyday Shoes for boys.
For 10 years we have been trying to
make the best work shoes in the coun-
try. To do this we even had to put
up our own tannery, buy the hides and
do our own tanning, as we could find
no leather In the open market good
enough to go into Lion Brand Shoes.
THAT we have come close to success
Is evidenced by the sale of more than
100000 pairs through thousands of
stores. Last year alone the shoe buy
ing public bought more than 100000
worth.
Lion Brand Shoes are so popular
we could probably go right on doing
business through the stores. But |
believe there should be fewer profits
between the producer and user" con-
tinued Mr.. Harsh.
by selling direct to the wearer we
cut out the profit of the tanner, jobber
and storekeeper, as well as the sales
man CAptAo1, anu dAC uDlC ~ save
the buyer of Lion Brand Work Shoes
from one dollar to three dollars a pair.
For example, our No. 76 Brown Blu
cher, with hard toe cap, made of Lion
Brand Leather (our own tannage) in
regular sizes, to II, is now being
sold by mail on receipt of money order,
draft or buyers own check at S3.35.
This shoe formerly sold through the
stores as high as $3.50.
at took a lot of courage TO change
our selling policy, but we believe the
buying public is ready for the change
and that our action in stepping over the
middleman to the user will be followed
by other large manufacturers of many
other well known quality products.
Our catalog No. l is now ready for
distribution from the factory, Hanover
and Maple Streets, Milwaukee, Wis
consin. Shoes shipped within "a hours
of receipt of order. ADV.
