the roses that dressed the room in

the draperies like an animate thing

The Canny Scot
Picks a Shoe

DR.. S. D. Fairweather of Aberdeen,
Scotland, probably never saw the Can
tilever Shoe, but he described it pref
ty closely In the Lancet Uondon)
when he gave his views on the ideal
walking shoe:
The average woman gets no spring
from the arch of the foot, being con-
tent with lateral wobble of the an
kle and rotation of the foot around
It's long axis instead of the natural
springy heel and-toe action. Any
elasticity she gets is from flexion and
extension at the knee her feet being
no more springy than blocks of wood -
FLEXIBLE SHANK
DR.. Fairweather describes the ideal
shoe as CLOSE fitting, pliable cover
ing of leather. supporting without i'm
mobilizing or hampering the struc-
lures in the arch and ankle, the waist
of the boot acting like an artificial
annular ligament. The sole should
conform to the shape of the foot the
heel being the same thickness as the
forepart and the middle part flexible"
We know that many women have
found comfort In the Cantilever Shoe
with flexible arch giving that spring
to the foot which you, too, would find
80 enjoyable in walking. Cantilever
heels are OF modish height. Come and
see how good looking shoe combines
all these approved features. We are

HARDSHIPS OF DISARMAMENT

OAMUEL GOMPERS. president of the
~ Federation of Labor. spoke reasonably
when he told Secretary DENLY that it is the
eear duty of the Navy Department to make
special efforts in behalf Of the shipworkers
thrown into sudden and unexpected ideness
by the suspension of work at Government
yards made necessary under the terms of the
armament limitation agreements.
In Philadelphia and other cities yard en-
pioyes with long records of efficient service
TO their credit were left jobless without q
day Of notice. Meanwhile, a great deal of
work remains to be done on ships which the
Government will retain. Many of these
vessels will be improved in minor ways,
I rented or newly equipped. Logically. under
Z IAe circumstances this work should be done
~ Government yards, and moreover, il
should be put under way at once. As bust.
ness conditions improve opportunities will
be presented to the expert mechanics and
Others who worked until recently in the
navy yards. Now they are confronted with
an emergency which may be averted bv n
little ingenuity in the Navy Department.
Mr.. Gompers was right when he said that
tne Government ought not TO indulge in n
method of hiring and firing more ruthless
than any which is tolerated nowadays in
any well managed business organization,
