MARQUIS DE LAFAYETTE
From on Engraving in the National Geo
graphic Magazine.
Tomorrow Will Be the
Anniversary of the Birthday
of Lafayette
General Pershing, who is expected to arrive on
Monday, will not be able to go to Lafayette's grave
in the little cemetery of
Paris, to lay a wreath and a tear and speak a word of
affection for the young Frenchman, who endeared
himself to us in the Revolutionary time.
The events of the last three years have tight
ened the cords that bind us to France.
Ntf other man on the other side of the sea did as
much for the struggling American Colonies as the
chivalric Lafayette, who not only came in person
and fought" with General Washington, but in the
days of suffering of our Continental troops went
personally over to his mother country and borrowed
funds to buy clothes and
troops.
Lafayette slumbers by
I'in the land of his birth, but
, yv uHiuiigruq, aweiis as a sacrea legacy in ine nearts
of the American people.

Ready With Children 's School Shoes
Better Shoes and at Lower Prices
For some years we have been getting more and more dissatisfied with children's
shoes as they came upon the market.
Many months ago we decided upon a new policy in this direction.
We would have our own shoes mada and made our way.
We took it up with the best manufacturers, and the result of an immense
amount of work and planning and close figuring is that now we are actually ready to
announce that
We Have the Best Shoes for Children in Philadelphia
and Generally at Lower Prices
For they arc our own shoes, made in our own way, of leather of our own selec
tion. They are made over lasts of our own selection.
They are cut upon our own specifications.
The soles are put on with the Goodyear welts and the leather soles are genuine
all-leather. There are some shoes with fiber soles, for many people want this kind;
but if the shoe appears to have a leather sole, then we guarantee it genuine leather, no
paper, no cheap composition.
And the whole construction is just as good and sound.
Whatever you may get elsewhere, you can get good school shoes at Wanamaker'a
sound and true and durable.
Boys' shoes come in tan and black calfskin lace, in sizes 8 to 10ii at $4.50 and
$5.50, and sizes 11 to 2 at $5, $6 and $8.50.
Special attention is called to an extra-strong tan calfskin lace shoe, box toe, in
sizes 8 to 10ij at $4.50 and 11 to 2 at $5.
Girls' shoes come in tan and black button and 'lace calfskin, in patent leather
button with kid or cloth tops and all-white buck button and lace, and prices go from
$5 to $13, according to size.

and glory of it?
