Fancy Hittle slippera, with nifty French heels, and all sorts of novel- ties vie for attractiveness with shoer hosiery, revealed by the uplifting of hems, But Oxfords wil be popular and adaptations of the old Roman san- dais will be quite the proper thing.

Ornaments, over-gaiters and spate will be worn by the girls of the Goid- en West, As to mere man—well, the shoe men took a cruel thrust at bim. They decided that light brown will be the real stylish thing, and, frankly, they favored that style because it re moved the temptation to wear street shoes at formal functions, and the men would be forced to buy a pair of blacks.
