CONCERNING SHOES

In connection with the auto
graphed pair of Eleanor Pow
ellis dancing shoes, which the
Hahn Shoe Company is giving
away, it is of interest to note
that Miss Powell'S mother
breaks in" new dancing shoes
for the girl tap star.
Miss Powell, who is currently
starred in Broadway Melody of
1885," at LoeW's Palace The
alter, wrote a very interesting
column, concerning odd facts
about dancing, for these col
umns about a year ago.
The pair of shoes in posses
sion of the Hahn company is
said to be the only pair ever
autographed by this star.
Those wishing to compete in
the Hahn contest can secure
blanks, without any obligation,
at any of the Hahn stores.
