Shoes
The shoes that make so
many trips to school must
have sturdy qualities and they
must be comfortable and
good looking shoes as well.
Our boys' school shoes
are the best that can be
bought. The leather, the
shoemaking and. the form of
the shoes are right in every
way. Some have the uppers
and soles waterproofed.
Our girls school shoes
are also unusual values.
We're up in the schoo
shoe business.
