THE WALLPAPER SHOP ELMER WILKINSON DECORATOR SCOT'T'IES In the Spotton Hour of Monday last Mr. George Spotton, M.P,, referred to the "somewhat distressing fact" that "new mach- inery" and: "new inventions", the products of the inventive mind of man, are gradually and surely "displacing man power" and as a consequence where ten men were required for a certain opera- tion, in many cases "one man can now do the job" and in the face of this fact we shudder to think of what the industrial situation of this old world may be 100 years hence, but upon second thought, we find there is not need for worry for "we" shall not be here. ' There is one phase of the question, however, which is EN- COURAGING, and that is "with the, improvement in machin- ery there has come at the same time an improvement in the pro- duct" and we know of no type of FOOTWEAR in which there has been such pronounced advance than THE COMFORT SHOE KNOWN AS "SCOTTIES". We do not know why they are called SCOTTIES but we do know that this Class of footwear (Summer Footwear) combines two .qualities that are outstanding, namely QUALITY AND (COMFORT and as a consequence SCOTTIES are THE •MOST: POPULAR ;Eine of footwear known to the Shoe Trade of this great Dominion we are pleased to call our own Canada.
