Ins America the colonial pump has
been broadly and gladly accepted. Its
wide tongue reaches over the instep
and there's a broad buckle. By the
way. buckles are worn up and down
the instep, not across it. If the long
tongue is of pleated suede or ribbed
silk there are no buckles. One of the
diverting models shows a pleated
tongue run through a slash in the
shoe, extending to the ankle.
Naturally, with the orient dominat-
ing our co$tumery. there would be a

and a vivid silk tassel. These are not
kept for kimonos; they are worn
with luxurious room robes of velvet,
of crepe and fur, of duvetyn and fur.

There is no intimation OF the
former laced or buttoned boot in
these high shoes. Medievalism is
the inspiration for those who are
urging the incoming footgear. For
instance. there is a suede beige boot
wrapped around the leg and fastened
with a large buckle in imitation OF
the early ankle covering Of Europe.
Such was the source of the American
puttees, yet it was not the last war
that brought this leg covering into
the minds of shoemakers: it was
the museums. Another shoe which

did would go down in ecclesiastical
history. Much that is now at the bot

the organization is concerned. and
much now at the top would sink into
