With fifteen new Regal stores opening this Spring, and more coming, and the rest of the seventy-two Regal stores doing double business,—this increase of factory capacity became necessary in order to take care of demands already existing. It's all a part of the original Regal program—to manufacture the very best shoes that the very best leather and the highest grade of skilled workmanship could produce; to sell them direct to the wearer—instead of through leather-dealers, Wholesalers and retailers—at the wholesale price; and o probe ebery single claim lve make. We have probed that “ Tannery to Wearer” is more than a familiar sentence—a short-cut system that enables us to sell you direct, at $3.50, the equal of any shoe sold anywhere at any price. We have probed by the well-known “ Valvic Test” in Regal windows that our Valvic Calfskin is exactly what we claim it to be—porous but waterproof—clean, light, cool and comfortable. We have probed that only good old-fashioned oak-tanned leather is used in Regal soles by the “ Window of the Sole”—a removable label on every Regal shoe that discloses a section of clean, close-fibred, unblackened, oak-tanned leather. We have probed by publicly dissecting thousands of shoes with the famous Regal buzz-saw that Regal vamps are whole, not patched at the toe, that Regal heel- stiffenings, toe-boxes and inner soles are solid sole leather, and that every last bit of Regal material is the best that can be put into shoes. The largest retail shoe business in the lporld,—built up on a foundation of one price, one profit, honest material and first-class workmanship, 3 ’ E GAL SHOES by mail, carriage pre- paid within the limits of the Parcel Post System, 83.75.

All outgoing trains are guarded, and officers are stationed at other avenues of escape. Every effort is being made to capture the highwayman. ———————— POWER COMPANY DAM BREAKS UPON A TOWN Lower Parts of Brandon, in British Columbia, Are Reported Under ‘Water.
