A dainty dress shoe will not stand many shopping tours, nor will your heavy
street shoes help the appearance of an afternoon or evening frock.
It's surprising how much depends upon choosing the right shoes. Not only is
your pleasure greater in wearing them, but there's a very worth while saving inselecl
ing shoes which are made (or your particular need.
Little Miss First-Grade
Picks Her Fall Shoes.
They have soles that will stand jumping rope, and keep out dampness. The
heels are low, of course; the toes are wide so her foot will grow naturally.
Bring the children to the Shoe Market, where style, quality and price are always
considered.
