--You Never Pay More nt Ricnzl's;
Give Your Feet
a Fair Chance-
WE believe in shoes that fit the fed instead
of making the feet fit them. That's why
we recommend Educators the shoes that "let thc
feet grow as they should." For Educators can
nctfer cause corns, bunions, callouses, ingrowing
nails, fallen arches, etc.
Don't think that, just because Educators are
broad-toed, they cannot be as attractive and good
looking as other shoes. For
they are good-looking and
conservative, too. They wear
long, besides.
Let us show you Educators.
Bring baby in, too we have
Educators especially made for
little feet just beginning to
toddle around.
