10,000 prizes for children
rpEN THOUSAND children will win prizes in the
X great "Liberty Bell" drawing contest in the next month
or two. Any child in this town ought to try; it doesn't
cost anything, and you get a beautiful souvenir, even if you
aren't among the fortunate ten thousand.
The ereat shoe house of Sell "the largest makers of good shoes in
the world" are backing us in this contest, so you know it will be done right.
For Selz does everything right. Selz is the only manufacturer who absolutely
guarantees every shoe with his name on it; that's the reason we sell Selz shoes.
Children can't find a better shoe at a reasonable price than the "Liberty
Bell " shoei it's made of genuine leather, uncheapened by the usual frauds in
children's shoes.
That's the reason they wear so long; and they fit comfortably: look dressy,
too. That's why they're "tlie most famous children's shoes in America."
Guaranteed tboct tot women and children, too.
