Elastic Shoe Laces

Shoe strings made of rubber
composition, recently introduced by
an English manufacturer, are said to
stretch so easily that shoes can be
taken off or put on without unlacing
them. The strings are fastened at the
top on the inside, thus eliminating the
need for tying or knotting. They cam
not work loose. In games or on hikes
the elastic laces are said to relieve
the pressure of the shoe on the foot.
They are made in different colors.-

they will show up best there. As a
matter Of fact, a few ornaments we'll

more effective than If they are scat.

The remainder of lights reflected
from various ornaments should also
be considered; those with CLASSY sur.

The CLASSY ornaments will relieve the
