T7VERY par-
12/ ent should
exercise
the utmost care
when selecting
shoes fer the lit-
tle tots. During
the formative
period their feet
are very tender
and the bones
are easily mould-
ed and quite
often are turned
from the natural
course by. un-
comfortable or
^ / ill-fitting shoes.
Careful shoe fitting is absolutely essential
to healthy, v. Al-formed feet—every mother
should demand a shoe “built to fit” the
child’s foot. s
“Billlken” Shoes are scientifically con tructed
by McElroy-Sioan Shoe Co., St. Louis, in a speci-
alty factory—BY SPECIALISTS. T hey are
made by a new scientific process—no nails,
no tacks—extremely flexible soles. In tan, gun-
metal calf, patent colt and black and brown kid.
