When the Shoe
Fits

THE shoe which fits both the foot
and the frock is the shoe of endur-
ing satisfaction" says LIE Costume
Royal, the fashion magazine, in the
October number mo matter how
harmonious the leather may be with
the material of the frock; no matter
how attractive the design, how ap-
propriate to the costume; no matter
any quality if it is not directly con-
nected with the virtue of comfort.
IN source of courage for these
direct statements lies in tiny
that poor tottering woman who is
balanced upon an uncertain heel
with her feet squeezed into pathetic
Jumps and her forehead crumpled
into wee wrinkles. Not that every
woman should be firmly planted fiat
ly upon low heel. but rather upon
that arch Of comfort which is neces-
sary to her correct support and which
is appropriate in design to the frock
she wears.
MANY women have avoided COM

misery for the sake of desired eff

craftsman, who knows not only the
needs of a foot, but realizes as well
the Importance of a smart effect, has
designed shoes which are the last word
of the mode and source of eternal
comfort.
mo longer need a woman DESTROYS

these new shoes of the mode are a

designer. OF soft, durable leather
each shoe is excellently made with

 Easily Moulded
 we have to create out of ths young generation 8 generation O. Communists. We must make real good Communists of the children for they, like wax, are easily mould ed. We must remove the children from the pernicious influence of the family. We must register the chil dren, or, let us speak plainly, nation alize them. Thus they will from the very start remain under the benefi cial influence of Communist kinder gartens and schools. Here they will absorb the alphabet of Communism Here they will grow up to be req Communists. To compel the mother to surrender her child to us, to the Soviet state, that is the practica task before us"
 Thus Soviet institutions for chl dren were established The repor. of the Soviet inspection for Febru ary, describing one of these institu tions, the Robdestvenskia Nursery in Petrograd, says:
 The children, left to their OWE devices, under the supervision of in experienced and rough-spoken nurses with filthy clothing, pale from lack of sufficient nourishment, made ? painful impression. The place itself unventilated> and poorly heated, fos tered all manner of diseases and contributed to the exceedingly high rate of mortality among the children In the course of three months tho child population of that institution renewed itself to an extent of 90 per cent.
 Sent to Hospitals
 "In other words, nearly all of them were sent to the hospital, or having failed even to reach the hos pital, they perished while still al the Nursery"
 The official Bolshevist organ or Public Health, "Izvestia Zradvookh ranenia," No. II. gives the statisti- cal data. on mortality of children in Moscow, up to the age of 16 years, per 10000 inhabitants, as follows: Ia 1913, S1; 1915, IS; 1918, 100; 1919. 372; 1920, 400.
 Analyzing the Bolshevist activities with regard to the children of Rus sia, the well-known Russian physi cian Dr. Horn, said at the Pirogoff Medical Congress in Moscow:

EUROPE BOUND

/ New York, Sept. 27.- Mary anc
Doug were Europe bound on the
Olympic tonight, pursued by flock
Of rumors.
Some of these rumors took the
shadowy shape of a historic bird,
alleged to be flapping its leisurely
way behind the liner.
The pursuer, il was said, was not
expected to catch up with the fa-
NOUS movie stars for some time,
however.
An "interesting event. in the
Fairbanks family has been whispered
about several times recently, only to
meet with prompt and laughing denial
from both interested parties. On the
occasion Doug was quoted as saying
he "only wished it were true"
The present rumors have attain
ed such widespread circulation that
they are current even in Paris, from
where it was reported today that
Mary and Doug have leased an elabo-
rate apartment for several months.
A comparatively small group OF
friends and admirers was on hand
to bid the Fairbanks bon voyage
today They had to divide attention,
too, with 19 year old Anne Stillman
and her father, James f. Stillman.
Miss Stillman was on her way to
school in France. Neither she nor
the banker would talk with reporters
and both tried, unsuccessfully, to
eyade photographers, Stillman left
the pier in his car as soon as he had
seen her aboard
With Mary and Doug were the
formers mother, Mrs. Charlotte
Pickford, and five year old niece,
who, Mary says, she will adopt and
change her name to "Mary Pickford
