WARNER. Shoemaking. The careful and painstaking maker of good footwear insists that the lasts over which each shoe is modeled, remain in it long enough to thoroughly set the shoe to its shape; to "season" it, one might say. By so doing, the original shape is retained much longer in the wearing. Our orders for each season's styles are given early enough to allow the necessary time for this seasoning. Careful fit ting added to proper construction insures shoe satisfaction. Ladies' New Shoes. Choir Concert.
