Who invented rubber shoes

According to Science Service. South
American Indians were the first rub
Der shoe makers in the world. They
made clay forms of the shape and size
of their feet and poured over them the
latex or milk Of the rubber tree. This
was dried in the smoke of a palmnut
fire to become an unvulcanized water
proof rubber shoe. The first vulcan
lied rubber shoe was made in this
country in 1910 by Charles Goodyear.

HOTEL De GINK LODGERS
MADE To SHOVEL SNOW

That the local police are desirous
of saving the time of city employees
and thereby the money of the tax
payers is shown by the manner in
which they took advantage of op-
portunities offered during Wednes-
day night.
The heavy snow of early Wednes-
day evening chased five knights of
the road" to headquarters for a
nights lodging in the Hotel de Kink.
Thursday morning the dodgers were
not desirous of going into the cold,
cruel world without something to
warm them up so it was decided that
they clear the snow in the front and
rear of headquarters and after this
was completed, they were served
with coffee and sandwiches. They
were then released.
In this manner the time of city
employees was used for other pur-
poses.
