I ha\e time to
JFW " UsH worry too
much about .■'hoes that don’t fit
and even less time to attend to
tired feet caused by ill-fitting i
shoes.
Oh, don’t get me wrong. Foot
fashion is important, hut fit and
comfort are vital to your peace
of mind. And that’s important
too.
The time of day you shop for
shoes makes a difference in the
way shoes fit and feel. Shoes are
best purchased at the end of a
.-■hopping trip, when feet are
slightly larger. Because your feet
are tired, they will more readily
reject ill-fitting shoes.
When purchasing shoes, re
member that hosiery should be
one-half inch larger than the
foot to allow toe freedom.
Shoes should be a half-inch
longer than the largest foot—
each foot is a different length
—to allow the feet to spread dur
ing walking and to allow air to
circulate. If feet swell during
warm weather, this extra length
allows extra room for comfort.
The sole of the shoe should be
ns wide as the foot, the widest
part being at the big toe’s second
joint. Snug heel and instep fit
is equally important.
Shoe material should be flex
ible, soft and made of breathable
leather, fabric or man-made ma
terial.
Keep in mind that a sales
man’s shoe measure is only a
guide and should not dictate size
any more than the size of your
last pair of shoes should. Sizes
do change even with adults.
New shoes should not need
“breaking in” but should be com
fortable enough to wear immedi
ately. Foot powder may help ease
any slight discomfort until the
shoe softens and conforms to the
foot.
A foot "break” will help tired
feet. Slip shoes off and wiggle
toes and ankles at lunchtime.
No shoes should be worn two
days in succession. Because feet
perspire excessively—nearly a
quart of perspiration a week—
shoes need time to dry out.
If the shoes really fit, you’ll
enjoy wearing them.
EASY MEASURE
Before measuring syr up,
honey, or molasses, grease the
measuring cup or spoon thorough
ly with butter to prevent the
syrup from clinging. Home econ
omists with the University of
Georgia Extension Service point
out this makes washing-up easier
and measuring more accurate.

State Parks To
Rigidly Enforce
Camp Area Rules
ATLANTA, (GPS) State
park superintendents have been
instructed to rigidly enforce
amended regulations in the park
system’s pioneer camping areas,
it was announced by gtate Parks
Director John L. Gordon.
(A pioneer camping area is an
area removed from the family
camping area and designated as a
site where supervised groups of
campers may pitch their tents
and and live primitively for
awhile in the woods.)
Under these new rules, or
ganized youth groups are not
eligible to use pioneer camping
areas without first obtaining a
reservation through the park su
perinterdent, it was pointed out.
Also, in the case of Boy Scout
units and other similar groups,
a “tour permit” must be obtained
prior to making reservations with
the park superintendents.
“No youth group,” the an
nouncement stated, “will be al
lowed to camp on state parks pro
perty without an adult supervisor.
Renewed emphasis on the restric
tions is necessary to prevent over
crowding in pioneer areas.”

seeking to improve their reai
status with a win over the vi

Jackson lost its first region
game Friday night to Gordon
Military High School by a sc “
of 26-6 and in the process l ost
Tommy Herbert, stellar center
for the remainder 0 f the year
with pulled tendons and ligaments
m his ankle, which has been
placed in a cast, according to
Coach Hutcheson. Two more Red
Devil stars, Rodney Singley and
Billy Glidewell, are doubtful
starters or, if able to play a t all
will have to do so at reduced
speed. Singley has a cracked
wrist and Glidewell a twisted
ankle. Tommy Fletcher, another
line stalwart, is hampered great
ly by a nagging leg injury.
Coach Hutcheson states that
scout reports indicate Manches
ter is primarily a running team
with Cartwright one of the bet
ter tailbacks in the state. They,
like Gordon, are a ball control
team and are capable of long
sustained marches that eat up the
clock.
