SeRSTIO PSP TEEPE OOF eee Seattle Man Has Sprung Something New The writer had heard of “Cafeterias” and “Gro ceterias,” and has himself been engaged in the sell ing of shoes for a good But Seattle he many years. until he landed in had never heard of a “Shoeteria.” Being curious to learn something new, I got busy and looked the place up. I found it at the Pike Place Market, en- trance from the Pike Place bridge. I met Mr. Siegel, the originator and proprietor, entertarning talk to, very obligingly explained the workings 6f this new sys- tem of shoe selling, and showed me through the stock. The whole idea in a nutshell is this: You wait on yourself. The most expensive feature of shoe selling, that of clerk hire, is practically elim- imated here. The stock is so simply | arranged that any can find and fit themselves to the shoes they want. And the saving in cost cer- tainly pays you well for your time. I could not help but note that all the shoes known houses, goods are noted for serv- ice and style who is a very person to and he one came from well- whose Men's and Women's $4.00 Shoes sell here at $2.75 and $3.00: $5 Shoes sell at $3.50; $5.50 Shoes sell at $4; $6.00 Shoes at $4.50, and $%.50 Shoes at $5. Boys’ and Girls’ $3.50 Shoes sell at $2.50 and $4.50 ones at $3.50. That's about the range of savings, and they are real. But you fit your self. This place is known as the “Shoeteria,” Stall 80, entrance from Pike Place bridge. Mr. Siegel duets another Shoe Store in the Market known as Stalls 21 to 24, near the Sugar Stall, downstairs The same kind of prices here, Shoes can also con- prevail and no be found ex cept good Shoes 3oth places were doing a lively business during the cou ple of hours I spent in studying this method of merchandising, and predictions are that they will grow, GROW! my “Shoeteria” Entrance from Pike Place Bridge—Stall 80.
