” A Year Ago !* Sept. 18th. . « I sold a new customer a pair of Good for Bad Boys Shoes and he told me then that ! , if they were half as good as 1 said they I were he would be back again. Yesterday he drove eleven miles to get his four boys shod with this wear resisting shoe. If you’ve a boy that’s a ripper on shoes I’d • like to show you. Boys $2.50 Little Boys $2.25 They’re cheaper because they wear longer. | — % Charlie Voglewede The Shoe Seller - -■ - ""T— i
