REMEMBER the good old days before the war when you could buy an honest-to-goodness pair of shoes for four dollars and less?

Also, due to our downstairs location, our rent is exceedingly low, even though we are in the heart of the high expense district. We shall sell Shoes on a very SMALL margin of profit, and make our money on a volume business like the big grocery chain stores do. We expect—and

Although girls often are very happy and sometimes are adopted as the daughters of the purchasers, there are many tragic outcomes to the system.” P. O.
