where they are perforated at the
edge to give them a pleasing appear
ance on the o D OF the wearer.
Fourteen different processes are re-
quired to transform a piece of tip
leather into a finished cap, with its
box to hold the shape of the shoe
and canvas lining to protect the hose
of the wearer.
"The joining OF the quarters and
vamp must be done with great care,
so hat Their as neither unevenness or
roughness. 1t is tho most difficult
task in the making of the upper Of a
shoe. Judgment and care are re-
quired and much strength Of hand.
Other minor processes follow, and
presently the finished upper fares
forth to meet its sole-mate in the
making department. Before it goes,
If 1t be a. laced upper, a girl puts it
through a machine that laces it up
and ties 1t in the twinkling of an
eye-a machine that would be a
glorious aid to q fat man.
Preparatory to its alliance with
the sole. the upper 10 lasted. The
insDle has been tackled on the last,
and the upper is now pulled tightly
over the last with a machine that has
pincers which act like human fin
gers. They draw the whole upper
in tightly over the last. so that there
is not a wrinkle, and tack 1t down
on the bottom. The toe and heel
require a ittle extra attention and
are held down by a piece of fine wire.
THE lasted shoe next goes through
a trimming n.achire that removes all
surplus leather, while a mechanical
hammer pounds the leather smooth.
Then 1. goes to another machine,
where the toes anc heels are beaten
smooth, making the shoe ready for
welt,ng.
1.-THE welt is so prepared that 1t
can be sewed to the insole and the
upper in one sewing, and later have
the outsole sewed to ii. After the
joining OF insole and upper to the
welt. the shoe is passed through the
inseam trimming machine. Nexts it
goes to a machine where a small
hammer gives the welt a terrific
beating. The insole and welt are then
covered with rubber cement, as is
the waiting sole. When this has
dried slightly, the sole is laid on
and the shoe is pu: into a pressing
machine. where the cement. dries.
Next it goes to the rough round
ing machine. which rounds sole and
welt. allowing them to extend out
from the upper at all points. Look
ing at the shoe on your foot, you
will see that this extension is less
at the shank than at the ball, and
less on the outer side than on the
inner side Ct the foot. The rough
rounding machine also cuts a little
groove around the bottom of the
sole fer the purpose of receiving
and covering the stitching. to follow.
The welt extends back only to the
heel. Tie latter has no welt, but it
is stitched directly and has its W
special treatment.
