You now pay $20 for shoes to raise ‘em. The packers in Chicago use every part of a pig but its squeal, but shoe yeggs have gone ‘em one better. than that. They use every inch of a caw’s hide and then put the squeak in the shoe, The Leather Trust has found how to eat its cake and have it. The trust now kills the cows and milks the public. When the war was on, the damand for shoes was something awful. But since the war folded up, the demand has been something fierce! Twenty dollars a pair is the worst demand since the Kaiser quit writing ultima- tums. Shoes are so high that for the first time leather medals are worth something. Leather costs so much that ‘only escaping bank messengers can afford running shoes. Buck and wing dancers now draw more money than Sarah Bernhardt. It's cheaper for baliplayers to slide to first than to make pome runs. Boots and booze are neck and neck,,. Walking is as expensive as Johnny Walker. When the pirate landlords were » Tunning wild, it was cheaper to move than to pay rent. But since thé Shoe Trust jumped into the ring it's cheaper to stay where you are than to wear out shoe leather. Your money doesn’t last long in a shoe store, but ft lasts as long as your shoes ever will. The paper profit of the Shoe Trust comes from the stuff tpat's in the shoes, Half the world’s .

There's only one hope for us common folks, We put on overalls and cut down the price of clothes, Now let's put on overshoes and haul down the price of boots. If united we stand, we should walk that way! Let the economy wave be @ breaker! Old shoes are now the thing. Yale will kelp the movement qlong by baving a Tap Day, Harvard is willing to wear old kicks if we'll only let ‘em keep their silk stock- ings. When a couple is married now, old shoes will be thrown at ‘em for gifts, mot missiles, Right now the shoe guys can make a fortune from a shoestring by sim- ply attaching a pair of shoes to it, There's only one way to stop ‘em, and that’s by wearing holes in your shoes instead of your pocketbook.
