Sale Price.. o — f shoes that have Spartan Leather Soles OCTORS say your children’s tender little foot-bones must have barefoot freedom, if they are to grow strong and healthy. And no matter how well their shoes fit, their feet can’t be comfortable or healthy if they are forced to walk on stiff, board-like soles that won't let them move naturally. That's why shoes with Spartan Leather Soles are just the thing for your children’s feet. Spartan is an entirely different leather that is light, pliable, more uniformly flexi- ble than any other sole you've ever seen. It flexes as easily as GRATON & KNIGHT COMPANY, Worcester, Mass. the foot itself. It is a restful cushion for little feet that protects them against bruises, yet allows them to move with the barefoot freedom doctors re- commend. Spartan is damp proof, and as non-skid as motor car chains. No matter how often it becomes wet, it dries out soft and pliable. And it’s nice to know that while Spartan Soles give your children hap- pier healthier feet, they will give fine service long after the ordinary sole has sur- rendered to the scuffs and abuse of hard play.
