Most persons like to be shown “variety” in other words A GOOD SELECTION and we are confident in stating that our selection of WHITE SHOES FOR ALL CLASSES is more comprehen­ sive and MORE COMPLETE than that shown by ANY OTHER SHOE STORE in this part of Wes­ tern Ontario. If you are considering wearing WHITE SHOES during the Summer season of 1936 we in­ vite yon to call and look over OUR GOOD SEL­ ECTION combined with MOST MODERATE PRICES.
