The same law of Progress has made the woman of today quite different from her grandmother—botbh the best of their time. Success today calls for the power of concentration. ... and specialization. Great men of our time excel in one thing—no man is so gifted that he can be two or three kinds of genius. In an age of specialization it is not unusual that Her- bert’s should concentrate their entire efforts and energies and specialize on shoes at ome price—35. Particuarly when this specialization enables us to provide the fashion- knowing and value-wise women of this city with smart shoes for $6.50 and $7.50 quality for only $5. This change in Herbert’s price policy means that we are providing better shoes, finer quality, a more compre- hensive variety of styles and materials . . . . and far more value-received for your money. This is possible because of greater buying power and the elimination of many styles, sizes, lasts and colors in several price ranges. =N SMAR'I'XIJ.V, indeed, begins where slender heels tap the " pavement.
