For It!
that our shoes are better
for the price, than shoes
bought elsewhere. They
have to be you expect it.
They're better in every

for instance our
Men's Shoes
at...
$1.50, $1.75, $2.00 '
and $2.50. ;
There are several different
styles at each price and
each grade is the -yetsry

its price. If voh . wont
take our word for it try
the shoes they'll tell the
