PUT YOUR BEST FOOT FORWARD
d9|5a l!Il

\ Because we have heard the ridic-
ulous adage, Beauty is only skin
deep, so frequently, many of us
I are inclined to accept 1t and we
! take the attitude that IL a swift
glance In the mirror tells us that
all is well. we are off to a good
start. And perhaps we are-off to a
good start. but it Is more than the
start that counts.
Wear Sensible Shoes for Work
and Sports
1t has been some time now since
we have discussed feet with an eve
to beauty but, under most circum-
stances, 1t is our feet that not only
give us our start but carry us
through the day and evening with
a minimum of consideration. Too
OFTEN we are likely to buy shoes be-
cause they are so cute, or because
they make our feet look smaller or
because the heel is so graceful.
Not that l would for a minute adj
vocate shoes that are ugly. Scuffed
toes, rundown heels, heavy soles
can ruin the best outfit but shoes
that are not comfortable can ruin
face and disposition. A shoe
that combines beauty and comfort
u the ideal solution, but, if that is
impossible, 1t Is far better to sacri-
nee = little foot beauty rather than
limp around attracting attention to
tie fact that your shoes are mis-
hted Or highly inappropriate for
