■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■ Another Big Batch ——of American Boy shoes came in today. You’d be surprised at the number of these shoes we have sold already this fall. Parents who bought them last winter wouldent have anything else. They stand the hardest kind of wear that an American Boy will give them, stay soft under most any condition and are easy on the foot. Try them on that boy of j ours. Boys $2.50 Little Boys $2.25 Charlie Voglewede The Shoe Seller <

Mayor Gaynor of New York has this to'"Say about walking: “Observe nature. When you come to a barnyard go in and see the pigs and fowls and I the cows. Climb a fence now and then, and go into the fields and look at the crops or the cattle. 1 know of no place where there is more philosophy than in a barnyard. You can learn much from animals. Within their circle they know more than we do."’ '

While • there he declared his determination • to resume his flights today if the re- • pairs on his machine are completed ■ and the weather permitted.

Said one who is in a position ■ to know: “Do tell me what use there f is in asking the officials to conceal it s when the couple themselves are a t walking advertisement of the fact. ,■ Anyone who sees them walking about the streets, either with or without the little marriage certificate roll, would ‘ know that they are bride and groom. I wonder if they imagine nobody e knows it?”
