Kiddies' Comfortable Shoes
Nature never intended little feet to grow
up to cause pain and misery. Sometimes
through wrong selection of shoes this con
dition occurs.
You can defend your kiddies' tiny toes
from hurt and harm through having them
fitted at this store.
BETTER SCHOOL SHOES
FOR BOYS
The wear a boy gets out of his shoes at
