COUNTY COURT
"A Shoe Store for Shoes" J
Is the dictum of the experienced. It is a matter of
shoe history that the department stores which try
to sell shoes of the grades wc sell do not make a
success of it. The reason is that a shoe "depart
ment" is fundamentally lacking in the element of
S&RVICK that must go with the sale of fiuc shoes
to make them rcal'.y worth the price asked.
