what he says will be unhesitating
ly accepted by the American peo

It Is The Unexpected
That happens. We thought we would have less competition on men’s shoes this year
so bought a great many more than usual. This works to your advantage, inasmuch as we
can show you twice*—yes, three times—as many $3 and $3.50 shoes as any store in the place.
You have a better selection, better fit and better grades in buying from us. Our shoes are as
good as can be made. The asssortment is here. Come and look them over.
