STRAUSS SAYS:

“A BIT OF FLUFF”

By M. L. D.

If you put a pedometer on the average man, his mileage would surprise you. Even an office worker's trips to the water cooler mount up inte more footwork than you would imagine. ‘That's why so many men insist on wool socks the year round. Because woolen socks give extra bounce and protection to pedal extremities,

But, up until recently there was a catch to. woel socks. No matter how they were babied, Inidana water would finally get the better of them and they would shrink.

Now, however, the foot-saving ‘brigade can give a cheer. Strauss has on hand (and you can have on foot) wool socks that are preshrunk. Wives, who have spent hours gentling woolen socks may toss these fearlessly into hot or cold water. They are a boon to bachelors, for even an untrained male “can manage them alone.

The socks come in luscious plain colors, as well as white. For .active sports, or the pronounced pacing type there is the cushion foot, pre-shrunk sock which feels like three "inches of Oriental carpet underfoot. (In white only).

80 don’t limp around harking to the unmelodious barking of your dogs. Come (into Strauss, (main floor) “and . muzzle them with these soft | , pre-shrunk wool socks.
