great sermon at Bethel the fifth

What the Lord wants in this day

steadfast, unmovable, always

with us in the sixth trouble and
not forsake us us in the seventh.

Your boy or girl should begin to
weir Buster Brown Shoes with the
neit pair of shoes you luiv.' It is
never too late to skirt the child right,
although the younger the better.
The reason is apparent: The bones
of the child’s foot are pliable; a badly
shaped shoe can bend and twist them
out of place; a correctly shaped shoe
will protect and keep them normal.
Buster Brown Shoes
For Boys—For Girls
get their correct shape from the
Brown Shaping Lasts, which repro
duces the physically jierfect foot— the
most wonaerful development in mod
ern shoe making Feet trained in
these shoes are therefore l free from
future* foot ailments.
In economy, in style, in quality, in
wear. Buster Brown Shoes are the
equal of any shoe It is the Brown
Shaping Lasts that make them so
superior to all other shoes for boys
and girls.
Yet they cost no more than com
mon shoes —only $3.00 and up.
