OHN WANAMAKER On The Avenue of Shoes “The Avenue of Shoes” is one of the most interesting spots in the Wanamaker Store—particularly these early fall days when every one’s summer shoes are worn out. Before buying Shoes one should take a bird’s-eye view, of the fall fashions. Walk along “the Avenue” and see new models as they are arranged in logical order in the display cases. First the boudoir shoes, followed by the replenishing station— here are laces, blac! sg tre, polish and_ everything of that sort. Then one comes to the children’s shoes. Novelty Shoes First displayed fashions for women featured are pat-* ent leather shoes with nov- elty tops—tops of white or of gray. One cannot help but admire the graceful lines and good workmanship. Practical Shoes Next comes the black shoes for both everyday walking and more formal wear. Here are the sturdy black calfskins, made for comfort, and service, but made on lites that are very correct and comfortable, some having medium, others low heels. Jn this counter is a pair of French heeled buckskin shoes that would be most becoming with an afternoon frock. Very Important are the pumps to wear with spats -- so important that many models are shown. Some are patent leather, some dull kidskin. All sorts” of heels from boyish low heels to frivolous French heels. Gray Shoes Gray shoes are always becoming to the feet, par- ticularly gray suede or buck-, skin. Unusually attractive are the semi - Colonial gray suede pumps that have gros grain or satin ribbon bows instead of a buckle — the: rather remind one of Frenc! shoes. The French heeled buckskin high shoes are de- cidedly appealing. Then, of course, there are gray kidekin shoes and many black shoes with gray leather and gray cloth tops. Endless Brown Somehow brown shoes have be- come as essential as black shoes, and no wonder—such good-look- ing brown shoes are made that a woman finds it hard to resist them. Then everyone is wearing brown this fall, so, of course, it is nice to have shoes to match. There are the semi-Col- - onial pumps and buckskin shoes in brown and very good-looking fine brown lea- ther shoes with cloth tops and all brown leather shoes with French heels. And end- less serviceable sturdy brown oxfords for service. Two pairs attract particu- lar attention because ibe areéxtremely smart and well mi ape yet sell at the con- servative price of $12. Buttoned Shoes again Women who like buttoned shoes have reason to rejoice, because many, many but- toned shoes are shown this fall. Very attractive but- tons they are, not the round little old-fashioned kind we The essential thing to start the new fall wardrobe with is new fall shoes. used to have. Mercy! no; the buttons nowadays are of dark pearl shades with may- be a steel center. Buckles, too Stunning, cut steel buckles will decorate the smart .woman’s high heeled, long, , narrow, pointed toe pumps this fall. A, whole display on “The Avenue of Shoes” is devoted to& pumps with buckles; and another coun- ter is devoted exclusively to the buckles. Satisfaction As one woman remarked, e‘‘It is satisfactory to be able to look over the models and styles so well displayed be- fore going in to purchase your shoes. It rather helps to decide what one wants. Then one sees many styles that might otherwise be missed.” Conservatively priced Shoes for all hours For every day Tan oxfords, sturdy medium bes pointed or rounded toes; 1 Black, medium heeled calfskin high shoes with semi-rownded toe and wing tip; $15. Low heeled black calfskin shoes, pointed toe, wing tip; $9. For afternoon Kidskin buttoned high shoes with cloth tops and French heels in brown or black; $15. French heeled high laced buck~ skin shoes in gray, brown or black; $16. i-colonial French — heeled pumps with ribbon bows; $12. French hecled patent leather pumps to be worn with spats; $10 to $15. The mentioned shoes are mere- ly a few particularly good models picked out of a multitude. Children’s Shoes Are Important The Wanamaker Shoe " Store insists upon the im- portance of chil- dren wearing only correct-shape shoes. A_ shoe that cramps grow- ing little feet does irreparable damage. All our children’s shoes are designed with low heels, roomy toes, and snugly fitting insteps. The children’s shoes, while sturdy and_ strong, are made of pliable leather with flexible soles. No rough seams inside to blister little feet. Endless broken . arches and disfigured feet are caused by wearing wrong shoes when a child. The Shoe Store makes a specialty of not only hay- The Shoe Store is extensive. — ing correct shoes, but also fitting them properly.

These costumes are faithful re- productions of the originals, made of exquis- ite silk duvetyne, and ornamented with beautiful hand-work and rich furs. Illustrated is a three-piece costume copied from a Callot model. It is of black silk duvetyne trimmed with black lynx. The coat features the new length — considerably below the hips, and has the gathered col- lar favored this season. The frock over which the coat is worn is of the same material made on very simple lines, but lavishly em- broidered in black silk in a pointed Spanish shawl effect, with the embroidery simulating the fringe of a shawl. The skirt is straight and inclined to be a trifle short. Another lovely costume of this type is one of old-blue’ silk duvetyne, copied from Georgette. The coat has much the same character of the Callot copy and has a great collar and cuffs of gray squirrel. The gown underneath, however, has a loose, long-waisted bodice of old-blue Georg- tte over silver cloth, and beaded with old blue beads. A Cheruit evening gown distinguishes the collection of wom- en's gowns. It isa lovely thing of pale- flame-colored Geor- gette crepe with beautifully blended velvet flowers ap- lied. — Iltustrated, ts air of exquisite extravagance is characteristic of the new gowns.
