YOU MIGHT SAY It is late to invest in a pair of oxfords, but it is not. You have some time yet to wear them; and, too, for you to buy heavy boots right now, the hot test season of the year, you will wear them out, and in February you will want to get into oxfords. Adjust your buying to go with the season. It’s comfort and economy to you. Our stock of oxfords at the pres ent time is not complete, and for this reason, and to begin the next season with a new stock, we are anxious to close out what we have, and accord ingly have reduced the prices on all oxfords.
